  1. Sorry this took me so long. I had to leave town for a week an then have been a little busy. I am very disappointed to say that after three consecutive tests I am not very impressed with the accuracy. I just finished the three tests and got a variety of readings: 431, 408, and 481. I followed the directions to the "T", and still did not get good results. I'm going to be getting in contact with Hanna to see if they have any suggestions. I'll definitely post here what I find out.
  2. They are actually not too bad. It is the only one I have so I can't comment on how they compare to the regular stock. I paid $40 plus shipping. Mine is 15"x4" so it's pretty large too
  3. I just got my custom frag rack in from aqua-mags. I think it looks pretty good now, but it'll look a whole lot better when it's not white. It has 21 frag holes. As always forgive the crappy iPhone pics.
  4. I guess I need to check it out. I have only ran one test with the Hanna, and I compared it to my Elos test kit which I know I can trust. They both read 420. I'll let you know what I find out.
  5. Well my calcium checker finally arrived in the mail today. I was pretty excited to try it out since it is brand new to the market. I ran my first test today and then compared it to my Elos CA test. Both showed the CA as 420; so I suppose it's pretty accurate. I definitely like the checker better over my traditional style kits. Just thought I'd share in case anyone was thinging about ordering one.
  6. While we do have a good mobile version the tapatalk version is much easier and quicker to navigate.
  7. Tapatalk still won't let me anywhere near the site, and I no longer can find a spot to update my status. Otherwise the new site looks great.
  8. I don't think you'd be over skimming your tank with that PS. If you have a total water volume of 165 gallons then this would be a good PS for that size. Remember, it's always better to have a skimmer that is to big rather than to small.

    Blenny disease?

    Thanks for the info. That's pretty much what I figured. My bigger concern is is it safe to add a new blenny or am I going to have the same problem with a new one.

    IceCap 660 for 440

    As the post says....Anyone want to trade their IceCap 440 for my 660? I am worried that I might be overdriving my 4 39W T5s a bit too much, and causing a short bulb lifespan.
  11. I recently lost my lawnmower blenny and my midas blenny within one week of each other. For the past few months both blennies have steadily lost weight and looked more and more emaciated. I observed both of them feeding multiple times throughout the day, but I was never able to get either to gain the weight back that they were losing. I even went so far as to hand feed the midas to make sure it was getting what it needed. Everything else in my tank looks just as fat and happy as always. My question is has anyone ever heard of a parasite or disease that targets the GI tract of just the blenny species? Or does anyone have any thoughts of what might have caused this? I would really like to replace my lawnmower blenny asap, but I'm afraid of any lingering parasites that might cause the same problem over again. Thanks in advance for any advice.
  12. This is a very nice little colony for a very good price. If I had $90 I'd definitely pick it up.
  13. Not a clue, but if you figure it out I'll take a pair of them.
  14. Bump....still have some frags left
  15. Need the room so it's got to go! Sour apple seriatapora that is approx 7" wide by 5" tall. $50 obo
  16. Bump....still have one Hawkins left, five or six sour apples, and lots of fresh cut frags.
  17. My rimless tank is from GC, and the general consensus is correct. Pretty horrible customer service, and sloppy silicone work, but for the price they are tough to beat. My tank was half the price from GC then from anyone else. Feel free to come by and take a look if you want to see an example.
  18. <br />Thanks Mitch. It was good to see y'all again.

    Thanks, but the growth pattern doesn't really math either of those corals. Any other thoughts?
  21. Sour Apple Colony is sold.
  22. Thanks both of ya'll for the compliments. Mason I'm glad to hear everything is doing well.
