Dogfish

Remember that nice clean fuge.....Well its now covered with a mat of 1" thick ulva with some hair mixed in. Lot of green slime and other stuff growing on the glass. The red macros have been moved to the DT. Here is a picture of one of the beds. Fish picking at pods or eating the stuff.

Dont cut up the flame angel. I will buy the whole thing.

Me No pressure = a few min for the glue to set up. Med Pressure = 15 min to 1 hour depending on temp. and air circulation.

So we are playing with fire (water) are we now?

Are ya'll still happy with this?? Im planning on using it to dose 1ml or 2 ml, 3 to 6 times a day, of a phyto mixture into my rotifer cultures.

I dont see any responses. DId you find any? My clowns just laid the first round of eggs. They have been in the tank for a few months now. I am going to restart my roti cultures soon. Maybe a month down the road I can transfer a batch of eggs to a small tank and see if I can raise some.

Howdy. Open your wallet and you will just fine here.

Not a failure of equipment but of brain power. This one is besides the many ones of leaving something on that overflows and floods the floor. I spent a good part of an hour trying to figure out why a new EB8 would not show up on my Apex. Come to find out, Apex pre labels the outlets with names. It was there the whole time, I just didnt notice.

Howdy

I need a bag of Reefflakes Grand Select 4.5 mm I have a bag of both of these sizes to trade. You pick what size you need. Miniflakes - 2.0mm Reefflakes - 3.0mm

Anybody got a big o chiller

I ordered Sodium Nitrate and Postassium Phosphate My calculations come out close to this; Sodium Nitrate for 500 gallon 335 grams in 1 gallon of water / dose 30 ml of solution to raise 1ppm Potassium Phosphate for 500 Gallons 100 grams in 1 gallon of water / dose 1ml of solution to raise by .01ppm My plan will be to dose 1/2 the amount of sodium nitrate solution above and then test. If nothing goes wrong I will dose another 1/2 and test. Phosphate I will dose the 1ml and test, then another test, then another until my hanna ul sees the change. I plan to double my tank levels and let it sit for a week. If that goes ok I will keep them up with dosing. If that goes ok I will try to raise them again. Does this sound like a reasonable plan of trying to keep the current ratio?

Sierra Bravo what brand are you dosing?

Timfish if I dose nitrates will that lower my phosphates which I do not want to happen?

Ok now I cant wait any longer. I need a nem fix.

My tank has now reached 6 months in age. They count months when they are babies up until 2 ? I think ? My nitrate has been between .25 and .75. With the addition of the fuge to grow pods I think nitrate is going to drop. Tested today, looked a bit lighter than the normal pale pink. I started to dose some phyto in the fuge daily to help out the pods until I get film algae in the rock rubble. There is a good coating on the glass. I have been feeding my 16 small fishies pretty heavy. 3 cubes a day a little rods and a pinch of pellets with some white worms. I am thinking about feeding the tank 1 tsp of Reef Roids and 1 tsp of Coral Frenzy, 3 times a week. Plus a squirt of phyto feast. I started this tonight. Tank room smells like the ocean full of seaweed. Every Sunday it gets 1 oz of phyto and 1 oz of oyster feast with a spoon of roids and frenzy, already. Questions: Do you think the nitrate level will rise? Will I run into a phos issue? If I dose nitrates will it remove the little phos I have left ? Is there another solution besides more fish? I want to avoid more fish until I get the nems.

Being from Calif my other fidge is a wine frige. It does have white worms for the fish. Now would you like plaln water or salt water, sir?

Funny Mine is a fish food fridge. Just happens to have beer in it sometimes. Too bad I didnt know you when I hosted servers out of my house. Cooling a bank of scsi hard drives was a bear.

Looks like a flux capacitor.

Featured is a LED filter cartridge change indicator light that flashes when the cartridge becomes clogged with debris, providing a reminder that it's time to replace the cartridge I think my refrige has one of those. Tells me to change the filter.Its a blinking led message. "change filter"

Call a plumber :-))))) Maybe a bulkhead?

Looks good. I guess its kinda unfortunate you being so close to the live rock, plant and coral suppliers. :-)

I have pretty high flo thru my sump with a hammerhead/cuda pump. The water noise I have is the water vortex thru the 4 filter socks. They are 4" socks. Take the socks out no noise. I made those silencers for the socks but they just cant handle the water flo. I like that ATS.

Here is the set up with some macro algae. Im flowing about 600-800 gph thru the under gravel filter. I also came up with an idea for "twin pod towers". I can move one into the tank for cleaning by the fish while the other gets re-populated in the fuge.
