    Holy crabs... that post looks too good to be true! I'll definitely give him a call when I get home!

    Yeah I was considering that route as a last resort. They'd definitely fit... but wanted something enclosed that would be a little more durable over the long run.

    I looked at their website but they only have 10g in stock. I emailed them as well. They're a bit far from me too...although I'd make the drive out there if they had it. Thanks Jolt.

    I feel like there has got to be a few of these tanks sitting around somewhere out here...just can't find them!

    Want to get two 20g tanks like this for my RO top off supply and a salt mixing station....that I'm squeezing into a closet next to my tank. Tractor supply doesn't have anything smaller than a 35g tank...and online vendors want around $200 for shipping alone. Tank-mart has retailers in the area, but they still charge shipping for the smaller tanks. Anyone know of another local place I can try?

    Fast grower? I have a small piece that's just not growing.

    1,000 plugs and I didn't even get one today... 😕

    ORA Pearlberry & Tyree Ice Fire Echinata Let me know, thanks!

    Ok. Appreciate the responses.

    I use activated carbon in a reactor but very little (1/4) cup. I always rinse with ro before adding and its pretty well packed in there. Change it once a month. I can stop if you think that'd be a good idea. I also do 20g bi-weekly water changes. Dose nitrates/phosphate to maintain small readings for my corals. My main concern is if it is HLLE... can other fish get it from the angel? I have a yellow tang that concerns me the most.

    Hmm...well I fell I feed them pretty well. Have 4 variations of frozen foods and new life/ocean nutrition pellets. I've ordered some garlic/vitamin supplements to see if that'll help. I'm just worried it will spread to the other fish. Here is a pic of the angel when I got him put in the main tank (after QT).

    Alright I'll keep an eye on it. I just finished qt on 2 new fish...so I'll try catching him and throwing him in there.
  13. Reefpuck
    None of the other 8 fish have anything like it.
  14. Reefpuck
    Anyone know what this is...if anything? Doesn't seem to be affecting the fish...still acts normal. Seems like scales around the eyes/head area are gone.

    I use Red Sea Phosphate Pro. Pretty easy test. No experience with hanna but from what I've heard Hanna works well.

    I went through the same issue you're having...not knowing that my lack of nutrients were causing the SPS to bleach/look pale. I've been dosing phosphates/nitrates regularly, and everything has colored back up and looks great. Stop running phosgaurd and trim back your macroalgae. Not sure how big your tank is and how many fish you have...but if you have a heavy bio-load...you can try overfeeding to see if that naturally brings your nutrients back up. If not, just dose. I use Swanson monosodium phosphate and Spectracide stump remover (nitrates). I aim for .04ppm phosphates and 5ppm nitrates.

    That's awesome.

    Still waiting on a pic of this dual 6500k aquarium....
  20. Reefpuck
    Sounds like you're moving towards a fw planted tank with all that yellow! But how do you like it? Still getting good colors?
  21. Reefpuck
    Photos looking real good! Maybe one of the upcoming meetings you can give us a crash course on photography. We can all bring our cameras and stick them in your tank. 😎
  22. Reefpuck
    Are they purple?
  23. Reefpuck
    Automatic nitrate and phosphate tester... so I don't ever have to test parameters.... EVER again! I'm looking at you Neptune....
  24. Reefpuck
    I have 3 different torches and 3 different frogspawns....frogspawns have always looked expanded and awesome...but my torches don't seem to expand like they used to a few months ago. I did change a pump in the tank and have a lot more flow now...so suspect that might be the issue...although they don't look like they're being blown around too much. I would think all pieces in the euphylia class would act the same to parameters. Have you tried moving the torches? Did you change any equipment recently? New salt mix or dosing something different?

    I run the Reef Octopus Varios 2 DC pump on my 90g. In hindsight I should've got the next size up since you can always dial them down quite a bit (I believe 50% on setting 1 from it's max potential gph). Pump is dead silent and controller it comes with is very easy to use on a daily basis for maintenance/feeding. I'm not sure what size you would need...would depend on how much turnover and if you're running anything else off the return pump.
