reefman Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I've been using B-Ionic for 2 days now, and it seems like both the Euro-Reef and the Deltec go nuts when I turn them back on (even after waiting about 30 minutes with them off) after dosing with the B-Ionic. Is this normal? Should I wait a longer period before turning on the skimmers? Since I don't want to leave them off longer than I have to, is there any reason why I can't do the DT's and any coral food at the same time?

GKarshens Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Interesting. I never turn my skimmer off when I use B-Ionic and I have never had a problem. I don't see any reason that you couldn't feed at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph9123 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Hey, This is Joseph LE, I met you at rivercity. I leave everything on and no problem at all. Maybe turn the skimmer down a bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriel, What time to you normally dose, and is it with lights on or off? Hey Joseph! Is the offer still open to lend me the Nutribrach to work on those Aiptasia's?

GKarshens Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I usually dose a little while after the MH turn off. That way I get a little less PH swing at night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph9123 Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I'm waiting on him to call me, but don't know when. Hopefully they are still there since I didn't see any aptasia last time I was over there. I'll keep you posted. -Joseph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedude Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Just an FYI on this thread as Stephen has been extremely busy... the B-Ionic was not making the skimmer overflow. Restricting the skimmers output ended up being the culprit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
