Alright, I just got home from vacation about an hour ago and checked over the tank and such. The tank sitter did an excellent job and everything looks great. My red planet actually is coloring up nicely and polyp extension is getting better. I saw some encrusting going on with my rainbow Monti...

I just thought about that. You're probably right. I'm doing too much. Although I may add some UV leds for some extra pop. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Very true. So the hybrid is $700 or so, and I could probably sell the Radion, Reeflink, and RMS for around $300-350. That would work, I just need to save some money for it. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I have. I actually conversed with Dave from Nanobox, but he said it wasn't really up his alley because I already have my own LEDs. I need to find a T5 housing, that's what I need to do. I just need to find how to do it. Ugh. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I have. I have the desired color from the light, but I'm wanting more from it. I've thought of either upgrading the Radion to the G3 pro from the current (g1), or adding t5s. It's not so much that I'm dissatisfied with the Radion, I just want more pop from my corals. The tanks I've seen under A...

At the beach, heading to the wetlands institute. I'll post some cool pics later. When I get home, assuming everything is still looking good, I'll give a photo dump. A friend is taking care of the tank. I'm looking for some extra light, too. By this I mean the addition of a couple t5s for the...

This did the trick. Thanks a bunch. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm having trouble with the drain to my sump. It is constantly backing up, but it's not because of the return pump. For some reason the water doesn't flow well to the sump. I have the tubing in the water in the sump, should I cut it to allow the air to escape. Could having the vinyl tube in the...

Random question, but how do you go about thinning Chaeto out? I got a baseball a few weeks ago and now it's about the size of a medium frying pan ? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks, man. I just found my camera so I should have some shots up tomorrow. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Picked up a green Millie, rainbow Monti, bird of paradise, and a bam bams today for $25! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Thanks man! Go for it, you'll love it. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'm exporting nutrients like crazy with this fuge. I highly recommend using Ecosystem miracle mud. I have better PE than I ever have. There is so much life in the Fuge. The oversized skimmer is surely assisting as well, but it's really wet and tea colored. Since my fuge has taken off the...

Red Planet starting to color up, I paid $10 for this small frag. I thought it to be a good deal. PE is looking good as well. Some Zoas, the Sunny D's are out of the picture and only two polyps are open for some reason. I'll be watching that I guess :| Top down of the clam, can't get a good...

Not sure if anyone is around but I picked up some new frags last night and will again today. Found some local reefers selling at a good price. Got some sunny D's, gobstoppers, and a red Digi. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Checked Alk today and it was sitting at 8.6. I started feeding a little heavier and being more generous with the amount of food my LPS get, and as a result im seeing increased growth and color from my almost dead Acan and Frogspawn. So far everything is looking good. I'm testing Alk and calc...

Here's a few photos to share until i break out the macro. Just basic photos- My Nikon P&S cant focus or pickup anything with the glass. Any tips are greatly appreciated. The fuge is packed, and between that and the skimmer, id say the tank is doing good exporting nutrients. I tested tonight and...

Sorry for the lack of updates. Big photo dump and test results coming tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Wanted to get some pics with the light on but my reeflink isn't cooperating right now. I took a few of the growth im seeing in the sump and of the tank without light. I'll post them later. Maybe by then the Reeflink will working. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Got her filled up. Refugium is up and running. I was really surprised that the miracle mud didn't really cloud up at all. Not sure if any of you have ever heard or shopped at That Fish Place, but it's about 25 minutes from me. They gave me an obscene amount of macro and pods. I'm lighting the...

Thanks. That's helpful. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Going to get this going tomorrow. Anyone have any pointers for radion intensity? I have it mounted on an RMS and the tank is 14 inches deep. I have it peaking at 30%. Does this sound ok? Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I can always go back and get glass. No big deal. If I can gather some money over the course of the next few days I may just order a sump. I'll know I will wish i originally did it. Just may push things back a week or so I guess. Anyone know anything about advanced acrylics? Sent from my...

Back from the beach unexpectedly due to some family issues. Anyway, I decided to make my own sump. I decided I could do it well enough and customize it, all while leaving the extra cash for fish, coral, etc. I picked up the acrylic and the ten gallon, cut the acrylic today and plan to silicone...
