    Nuked Reef

    Worldwide rising ocean temps causes it. The problem with the warmer water is it has: Less oxygen and less nutrients. So things go hungry.

    70w DE MH bulb

    The 12,000 - 14,000K range is a nice balance of blue and white and tends to give a more crisp white without being to slanted towards a yellowy colour at the lower end of the spectrum (8,000-10.000K area) and not being to blue at the higher end of the spectrum and not giving off enough PAR for...

    Canister filter's

    Place the floss directly in the path of the incoming water from your tank. This way any large pieces of debris will be caught and will be cleaned away when you wash the floss each week, this way they can't get into places where its hard for you to get rid of them, so they can't sit and decay and...

    My toadstools has not opened in two days??

    My only thing there is calcium might be just a little high but if it's stable at 500 it should be fine.

    6G Nano/Pico Build

    Thanks KeV and thanks for not hijacking my thread with a rave about LEDs. If you lived in Aus I send you a frag of that Monti. I fixed up my light bleed issue by constructing a light 'chamber' of sorts out of toilet paper rolls and attaching it to the light. Works like a charm. Very, very...

    Canister filter's

    They can be if detrius and other junk is allowed to build up in them and decay. A well cleaned one should be ok.

    70w DE MH bulb

    Go for something around 12,000 - 14,000K. A lot of people seem to like this colour temperature and it provides good PAR.

    6G Nano/Pico Build

    A reflector is great it roughly doubles the amount of light into your tank meaning more PAR for your corals.

    6G Nano/Pico Build

    Hmmm. Maybe enough. LPS aren't huge light demanding corals. The SPS which the Monti is do need a lot. Check with Thomil or Melosu or Zero on that light and LPS but you might get away with a Trachy because you can supplement them by feeding them chunks of meaty foods like mysis because they can...

    Zer0's 17.3G Shallow Rimless Cube

    Yeah fair enough. I bought a LED fixture (3 LEDs) for my little Aquaclear fuge. Its awesome. Absolutely brilliant. BTW my 6 T5s running 8 eight hours over my tank today didn't raise the temp at all. Checkout the pics on my thread for the coolest hang ever. ;) (When I put them up in about an...
