Wow going to be a great build
-
Lol duh! Yeah I caught it afterwards. Ha! Too much in deep thought and bugged by that other guy who thought I was nuts for using GFO. found out later he is a store owner in SA. So makes sense now.
-
Intrested in Feed Back also. but i think all media needs to be changed once in a while. Excluding Biopellets.....Love this stuff.....
-
Yup also used Phosgaurd on my 29 but didn't do crap for me. So how long will the Rowa last in lightly stock tank. I have personally never used the stuff so just wanted to know how others have faired with it.
-
I've also use purigen and it seemed to work but still fell back on using HCGFO. Bio was the one to turn me on to this stuff. And now he's wrestling Gators....
-
So i got into a discussion with some guy in San Antonio about both Rowa and GFO. He was so adamant about using Rowa Phos and didn't want to hear about anyone using anything else. For me i told him the HCGFO was better because that is what i have been using for 2+ years and has worked great for me . Still seemed like he didn't want to hear it. He also wanted to see studies done to show the effectiveness of the HCGFO. I just told him that that's what i've been using and it's worked great for me. So how do you guys feel about both and any Pros or Cons on using both of the products. Just curious....

Glad to see it made the trip!! I'm all in on the Op 2 bud.

Over the weekend I created another rock tower. All i need now is a center piece but havn't decided whether to use a Holey Rock or create one of dry reef rock. It won't be a tower but will have several caves.
I think they came out pretty good just left a lot of dust in the water so i'm going to have to siphon it out later.

Ha!!

Where might one find that acrylic rod locally? Regal?
Well i work for a manufacturing shop and those were some of the scraps i just picked up. But you're correct in Regal plastics. If you need a piece or two i can probably get if for you.
I'm going to try old tent stakes, you know the ones that slip together for the little dome tents.
of course will cut off the little metal end.. and see how that works
Yeah that will work. It's only plastic so it should work out fine. Just make sure the metal isn't inside that plastic. Also i think HomeDepot has some plastic rod also. Maybe Lowes....not sure though.

Sent you pm

Thanks bud as you can see I got all the white stuff off. Looks new again.
-
Lol yeah I did but only a dab here and there mostly on the acrylic rod. That rock isn't moving anywhere. Got it on tight

Well after selling my 55 gl i've had for over 2 years i got the itch to UPGRADE!! I purchased a used 90gl from a fellow ARC member. It's a DSA Reef Ready tank and got a basic stand for it for the meantime. I plan on making it a FOWLR tank for now because we moved back into an apartment and don't want to go through the hastle of moving coral, sand, and a lot of equipment like the last time. I'm excited to get fish that i really want but couldn't do with a reef system.
For now here is a list of my equipment and i will update this first page as i continue working on my 90. It will be a slow process but it will be fun starting over again.
Equipment:
90 gallon DSA Reef Ready tank,
500 gallon return, (going to upgrade that very soon)
T5HO lights 1 actinic, 1 10k, ( upgrade soon also)
Stand (bought in San Antonio for real cheap)
29 gallon sump, ( home made simple sump)
Skimmer that doesnt fit under there so now i'm on the look out for another one. Not sure what yet.
Still need to build a canopy for it.
Livestock:
None at the moment
Live rock towers:
1 at the moment but waiting for more rock to make some cool designs with it.
Here of some pics of the rock tower i made:
And of the tank with the light on and rock work on one side:

-
No they are not tempered. I actually made a 150gl out of some of those sheets.
-
Thats Crazy Nuts!! Wish i could do something like that.
-
Had five Pep Shrimp and wiped out all of it in a week!!!
