Im not sure what it is? Is it good or bad? It doesn't bother me that much Im just afraid that it can take over my tank. So far it is in 4,5 pieces of live rock. First pick was made couple months ago. I tried to remove it,cut manually and it helped. Now I see more small ones on few rocks. What...

It is 84$ total with socket from Home Depot.I thought about it also but cheapest I can find those lights is 149$.

One of my fellow reefers suggested to buy PAR38 LED bulb and socket from Home Depot. He said it will support for sure SPS for few weeks in my 20 gal. long QT. You can buy them at Rapidled or Coral Compulsion for 79$. Cheapest option. What you guys think?

I have a question for you guys. When you buy new coral what do you do to make sure you don't introduce parasites or other diseases to you Display Tank. What kind of dip do you use and do you quarantine corals and invertebrates? Thank you.

Thanks guys. I will look into those autodosers at BRS. Never had one before. Are they come as a set up or I have to buy parts? So when I mix Sachem "Reef Builder" with RODI water in the container then autodoser will dose ALK from that container. Then I have to make sure container is never empty...

I have MH 150w and T5s combo. I dose ALK and Calcium manually, so not really regular....sometimes I forget...

Thanks. Calcium is around 420.

I have a 125 mixed reef tank. I have it for last 6 years. Im pretty happy overall. My only concern is that my SPS grow so slow. Particularly pick 1. All other corals always been great. Even some SPS still grows good, but some on pick 1 really slow. They have good color. Do they need high ALK...

Hi guys. I have a quick question. During Copper treatment in Hospital Tank do you guys run skimmer? I have a HOB filter and run summer at least will aerate water, right? It is not much about skimming, probably with copper skimmer will go crazy anyway but just as a air stone to aerate water...
