Well I've moved about 50 new frags into it from the frag tank, and begun moving things up onto the rocks in stages. I've added a bunch of crabs and a sand sifting star too. The cyano is still there, but I would say its about 75% as bad as it was a month or two ago. I was siphoning it off weekly, now I go two weeks before I siphon. Most of the coral seems to be doing well, but one colony of PC rainbow looks pretty bad, can't explain that one, it had been super happy. Everthing else looks fine.

Haha. Yeah I meant bio pellets. I should refrain from posting before 7am i think

Looking very nice. So the cannisters are for carbon, GFO, BioBalls?

Need advice on chips found on DT front panel
jolt replied to Sierra Bravo's topic in Emergency Discussion
Oh wow. I wish I had any kind of advice, but I have no ideas. But this really is a bummer for you -
One last try, I think @FarmerTy knows a guy who sometimes prints him stuff ...
-
@Isaac might be interested

I use live rock in my sump. Seems to work fine for me. I've read stories of people having marine pure disentegrate over time, but have not personally used it. Another product I've read of people using is called siporax

Will the frags be as chunky? Lol Several are actually chunkier!!
-
There's always the frag swap on 3/23, I'll have a table there ...

I feed the CaRx off my manifold, which is driven by a dedicated CoralVue Varios DC pump sitting in my sump for the DT, but on my frag tank my manifold is tied to the return pump with is a Vectra M1. I use essentially the same method in both tanks. The recirc pumps are the standard eheim that comes with the geo. The filter is on the effluent line between the CaRx and the effluent valve. All I do is adjust the Ph range of the solenoid to maintain desired Alk. When the media starts getting low I typically increase the effluent rate which is normally about 70ml/minute. I'll bring it up to maybe 90 ml/minute.

It's a personal choice for sure, and I have not tried every option. For me, the following has worked like a champ. Only time I fiddle with my needle valve is if I *want* to change it. I do change the filter each time I add new media. Realy reall cheap effluent valve, I think it's a two little fishies Pick up a fuel filter and run an ac pump/needle valve old school setup. Pro-nearly a free change. Simple. Saves spaceCon-hit or miss if it actually works

Yes, a union there is pretty important, I missed that
-
Man I just love clean schedule 80 plumbing. Nice job! But, maybe just turn that drain pipe so the printing doesn't show 😏

I'm not 100% sure, but I think they eat detritus
-
Will do!
-
Well, some are still available ....
-
You think so? I honestly think I could learn from you and bubba if I ever got the time to really mess around with it ...
-
Aw shucks. But, I don't recommend to make @FarmerTy angry, he has some great stuff for sale all the time ...
-
I'm sure we can work something out. I will PM you
-
Wait I thought you were getting #24 ?
-
