thank goodness!

I think it depends on if your dosing something with alkalinity in it.

Absolutely, you'll have daily fluctuations throughout the day so a consistent time of day is ideal.

What, your kids aren't old enough to do an LFS run yet?

Yeah even to lago

I know nikos reef do delivery

I know hydrogen also pisses them off.

Thanks for the ideas, I'll check Mg. It's been high when I've tested but it's been a while. My phos is 0.04, so that could be it!!

I saw a video of paletta and sanjay pointing to certain asterina starfish as culprits in acan tissue peeling away. It's in followup videos to paletta testing leds

5 minutes? Pellets and flakes I'd guess take a while to show up and the liquid off frozen food should mix in pretty quickly and then it's at least hours before the fish process what they've eaten.

I don't really know Kim but I say just wait for the next day.

I'd say of you feed at the same time every day, test before feeding.

Taste like chicken! Give it a try sometime!

Wermmmmsssssss.

Your wrasses's initial thought; Ermahgawd! Werrms!

wooohooooo

Sweeet!

any way we can request drivers?

Our fridge delivery guy from Sears was a reef keeper as well.

no further comments. its either awesome or youve all drowned.

We've all drowned :-D The ball on one of the ball valves leaked when we tested it with water in the tank.

But if you want to arrange an informal meeting (like at a bar/pub/etc) to sit around and talk tanks you could probably get a few folks to show up.

there are gonna be at least 3 people at my house tonight...

July meeting added, check the meeting thread

Wow Ty, your neighbor has 2 generators?

The pumps I got are Penn Plax Silent Air B11. Pretty small, take 2 D batteries. Got them off Amazon. They take up an outlet spot but it's worth it!

Yes, crazy! I told him I got dibs on the 2nd one when the zombie apocalypse comes through.

have you tried plugging the ones that aren't acting up again?

They are on an apex but I have them powered by a regular power strip. I just plugged them in and it tripped. Then I unplugged the one kessil I've been having trouble with and everything has stayed on for about an hour so far. I'm pretty sure it's that light. Time to see how kessil's customer service is with warranty claims. I should be just barely under the 1yr mark.

take the bad kessil to a different gfci and try it there?

I hear timfish has an extra.

Didn't you read the part where I said I can't possibly tear apart my system? ;-)

I've never heard of anything eating it as well.

When he has no algae then he'll find himself food. Put some Nori in with him.

Oh good!

That's great! I'm so glad you got them

Yay!

Mine did nothing to either.

i would think more nothing than something.

Yes to the question, wrong about the torch being the only LPS to be kept apart. I have a Lobophyllia that killed a Favia and was working on a Frogspawn before I moved it.

I assume he meant the only euphyllia. Non related LPS are not friends.

Oh, gotcha.

then get x11 and go fully automated in your house

get a butler and call him

I get get my stuff to turn off just by thinking about it. Too bad it's when i'm away and there's no way to flip the stupid GFCI back on

You can always buy it and stick it in my sump

Reeeeally? I'll pm you

a community of enablers, we are.

Yeup, they are clever how they suck you in at the lower price points and then the first thing you want to do is get some other probe or more outlets as soon as you get your main unit!

As an AI owner, she gets kind of jobbed because there is absolutely no reason to buy a full apex since the you need a VDM to connect to the goofy AI interface cable. I blame AI.

if you have AI Vega it does not work with apex only the sol will

And so it begins

Grats! I bet you are plenty excited!

Invaluable reference. Enjoy.

Funny I put all 3 plus others in my wishlist earlier this week. Hope to get mine soon.

I've been reading as much as possible the past couple days. What a great book!! I swear it covers everything! Wish I would've read it prior to ever starting a reef tank.

Thanks! I don't have too much of an idea yet, besides using cerameco for the aquascaping and i want a mixed reef and fish. Plenty of planning to do!

Awesome! What kinda tank? a big one?

60 gal. Not huge but big enough to do some fun things with! It's got neat dimensions. 48” wide but only a foot front to back.
