      2 water changes? That's like a 200% improvement over previous years! Haha.

      Come and get it at C4 sir!

  2. I had a telemarketer hang up on me today. At first, I was like, hey, you can't hang up on me... but then I was like... oh man, thanks dude!

      I was just myself. I guess that may be offputting to some. :-p

  6. how do i change my user name

    1. FarmerTy

      FarmerTy

      Being able to change your name is reserved for Premium Members but if you just created your account and chose a username that you'd rather not use, I'd reach out to Mframe, the owner of the club, and he could set you straight.

  8. Saying goodbye to the hobby for a while :(

  9. Is it important to check alk at the same time of day each time?

    1. FarmerTy

      FarmerTy

      Absolutely, you'll have daily fluctuations throughout the day so a consistent time of day is ideal.

  10. Sorry ive been MIA. will post some stuff this weekend :)

  11. I'm in DOC hell and have been for several months. Will it ever end?? Maybe Santa Claus will clean up my tank and bring some healthy SPS.

  12. Looking into calcium reactors, anyone have a opinion on a good one?

      You might want to start a thread on it. You'll probably get a lot more responses.

  13. We need a lfs that delivers :-/

  14. Does anyone have a Mexican Turbo or three they can sell? Battling an algea outbreak and could use the muscle. Looks like the LFS are out of stock.

      Kipf, I have both the zebra turbo snails and the Mexican turbo snails. They perform the same function in my tank except that the smaller mexican ones can of course navigate between the corals better.

      For urchins, I have 5 tuxedo urchins in my SPS-dominant tank. You need not worry about them touching your SPS unless yours are that much tastier than the 40+ varieties I have in my tank. LOL.

  15. Wife said she wanted a larger tank (180 or 240) - the reefer side of me says: YES! The CPA side of me says: wait, how much does that cost!?

      Don't forget to account for frags you sell down the line when your system is growing like crazy! :-)

  17. Feeling dejected. Heater exploded on Monday when I was at work. Fish are hanging in, but it looks like most my SPS is done for. Hoping my LPS hold on as well.

      I think you might have to worry about metal contamination as well from those glass heaters popping. Perhaps research a bit online on how others have dealt with a heater blowing? Like maybe using a polysorb filter pad or cuprisorb just in case?

      I'm a big fan of the titanium heaters. I get the finnex ones from BRS and use my Apex as the controller for it. In the summer, I turn off the heater.

  19. I find it humorous that ARC is so dead on the weekends, since that's the only time I have time to post...

      You need a job like the rest of us that lets you goof around at work all day posting on ARC.

  20. Not sure what's worse. Stressing over your tank or stressing because you dont have one.

      I sure hope your tub wasn't in ear shot of you saying that. It'll hurt its feelings.

  21. An Apex controller is great for those of us who travel a lot for work. That is, until your wife removes the fan you were using to keep the tank cool in the afternoons because she was feeling warm....
