Makes sense. It's kind of what I thought. Thanks..

Should I turn off all my pumps when feeding my invertebrates and filter feeders? I am using living phytoplankton, I am not sure whether to turn off all my pumps or just my protein skimmer.. Thanks..

Just the name of the product

I would like opinions on my reactor media. I have limited space in my 305 Fluval filter, so would like to combine chemi-pure and Dr. G's phosphate & silica remover in to my reactor. Someone at my lfs told me to try it, but I don't trust the dude. Is it a good idea to combine the two different...

Thanks

I have a 45 gal fowlr and my Fluval canister filter pump broke yesterday and I'm going to buy a new one ASAP. Is my tank safe for a few days without one? I have a phos-reactor and two power heads moving water around pretty good. If I change water every day, am I safe? Thanks...

I'm tired of buying water, and the ocean water I collect off shore from my boat doesn't seem like a good idea any more. So, now I am looking for a good quality RO system. I found a bunch online, but I'm not sure of the best one for me. As for salt, which is the best for my 45 gal FOWLR? Any...

I know that my lobster is very territorial and aggressive to anything that goes near its cave. I have witnessed that much. there are empty hermit shells close by it. And my sea hair is now only a fraction of its size of 4 days ago. Maybe mine is just mean. I dunno....

Does anyone know what I can use as a good cuc, because I have a Reef Lobster that ate ALL of my hermits and seahair. Ugh, costly mistake again!! I have a terrible nuisance algae problem that regular pwc with RO top offs and the removal of phosphates with reduced lighting doesn't seem to be...

I think my lobster ate most of my cuc. 10 Hermits and a medium size sea-hair. The lobster is small, normally shy and timid. But it is the only thing I can think of. Maybe it was my bicolored angel or my clowns? I don't think so....

I just got a sea hair, 10 turbos,10 red legged hermits, and a lawnmower Blenny. Expensive cuc, but I think it'll pay off. Any acclimating hints?

I've had hermits, snails, emeralds in the past. Now I have nothing. I understand the importance of them, just looking for some advise. How many and what species? Do they eat coraline algae? I have a 48g and just recently battled a hair algae problem. Looking for all the help I can get... Thanks.

Yea, I am doing the same. Just not working well enough for me. I'll just continue to use it, maybe it will come around.

I agree, thanks for the feedback.

Thanks you Carey

I'm looking for a phosphate reactor for a 48g tank. I don't want to spend a lot, but I don't want a piece of crap either. Suggestions appreciated.

Man, thanks for the solid feedback. Very informative advice. Although I've had my tank for years, I have recently discovered my passion for it. Loads of mistakes made, but I'm just now realizing how to properly maintain it. Thank again..

I have color vision problems, but it looks to me like it's in between 0.03 and 0.1. I have a bit of an hair algae problem. Slowly but surly getting it under control..

What's the best way to remove phosphates from my rock and sand? Apart from a reactor and phos/silicate filter media bags. Can it be removed physically any way?

Thanks a bunch, Steve

Ah, thanks Capt

I'm looking for a mushroom identification link. Does anyone have one for me? Thanks in advance...

Calcium and Calcium Carbonate? What is the difference? Are Strontium and Magnesium completely different things? Thanks...

Over the past few months, these things have spread. They excrete this web like substance. Kinda cool, but I don't want them all over my tank. What are they and can I control the spreading of them?
