    Back in the tank game....

    I really like that sump. Who built it and how much if you don't mind me asking? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Aquarium Advice mobile app

    Running biopellets and dosing nopox... they can cause your skimmer to go nutz. But I think its from most of my diatoms dying off

    Man aiptasia is crazy. I just found a head of it about a foot away from either of the frags I got. Im assuming it came from the frags. I had good luck a few years ago with a couple peppermint shrimp knocking out a bad infestation. Hope it works again. I was hoping to get some pods, well that...

    I would use the float valve. Eventually you will forget about it and have some water on the floor

    Nice. I just got a really cheap one right now. I add a water conditioner too to be safe. The next one I get I'm going to spend the extra money and get all the bells and whistles like automated flushes, pressure guages, and tds meters.

    Well the biopellets seem to working pretty darn good. I started dosing nopox last saturday and wasn't really seeing any drop, if anything it was slowly raising for the next week.

    Hey dimdim. Did you ever use them bulbs on the light you got off ebay, or did you switch them out right away?

    So my reactor with the rox carbon completely clogged within a week. So I got a filter bag to run the carbon, and started running biopellets in the reactor. I know there's a lot of mixed reviews on biopellets so wish me luck.

    Probably just hyposalinity, so I dont have to worry about trace copper if I qt inverts in the same system later. **edit** when I qt future inverts. Im gonna get a few for now. But after I start treatment everything from then on will be qt'd.
