Looking for a reef ready 90 - 120 tank only.  If the price is right a stand as well. 

Downgrading from my 180 peninsula and looking for a 120 gallon reef ready tank.

Yeah, I know.  How do you embed videos?  You using a URL?

I started using vimeo and then i copy the link and boom video.

My todo list:

- mount, wire in, and plumb the ATO

- setup the skimmer, neck cleaner, and skimmate locker

- build the manifold and setup the CaRx and media reactors

- aquascape

That's all I can think of at the moment.  Here's a teaser (still work in progress):

That's what i want my stuff to look like when it grows up.

Just paste the link and it embeds on it's own - pics too.  Easily my favorite parts of the upgrade!

Where do you paste the link from.  I have added video and then clicked the plus icon to add them to the post and it just put the label for it.  Do I need to have a certain format or link form a site of some type, I'm confused lol and that doesn't happen often

how do embed videos in the updated forum

I thought the same when I got my RO/DI the other day.  The resin was brown mixed with blue.  Here is what it looks like after making about 150 gallons or so and my TDS is zero.  So I think you are good to go.  If you have had your resin in the canister for a year I would change it.

My guess is that dumping a bag of pickling lime in there is loosening up all the crap stuck to the glass so he can clean it nice and shiny for the re-stock. Am I close?

Why didn't he just go with straight vinegar?

My screen name was pretty straight forward my first name is Mike and my wifes name is Danielle and a salt water tank. Also the mad part covers your mental state when dealing with the ups and downs of this hobby.

I'll keep working on the those million dollar listings... TeslaTy does have a ring to it... but do I detect a hint of feminine tone to it? I'll give myself until the end of the weekend to come up with a new screen name.

I think F350KingRanchTY kills the femininity

With a truck like that it should be getoutofthewayTy, whocaresabouttheenvironmentTy, notearthfriendlyTy to name a few lol. Seriously though that truck would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!

I run a dual BRS reactor with foam pads to hold the carbon in place. I have an mj1200 running it, the flow is slow because it has to go through the GFO first.

ckyuv a 90 gallon equals about a 1/2 cup to maybe a cup depending on what type of carbon you are using. I just switched to BRS Rox carbon so I will be using a cup at best

I was just worried about UV over long photo periods. UV will definitely put a hurtin' on your corals.

I have a question about your bleaching corals. So it looks like you setup a new tank. What kind of lights do you have, are they the same kind from your other tank? Do the lights have UV in them? How long are you running your lights if they do have UV?

wow man I am sorry to hear what happened, I was blown away by your tank when I picked up the xenia. I certainly hope everything works out. by the way since I live basically around the corner if you need a tank sitter or any help and I am around please feel free to give me a shout, i'll PM my number again.

and what is that super pink coral?
