Thanks again everyone, I got a Phosphate reactor and everything looks good. Will test here after I do my water change and see how the Phosphates look then. Thanks again for all the help. And Cmore I got some from a friend who was trimming theirs down. Thanks anyway.

Ok so I have been in the hobby a little over a year now and thought I needed to update a little since I haven't been on here much lately. When I started off I had a 5 gal nano setup. I kept it up and running for a long time befor taking it down. Since then I have went to a 55 gallon and hed...

Sounds good to me. Let me know on shipping. Thanks.

Yeah that's the main reason that is the main thing I am looking at right now other then trying to find some Cheato. LOL. Thanks for the input and help.

I am using RO water. I was thinking of a Reactor, but wanted to get some more opinions. I need some Cheato, but no one around here is getting rid of any yet. Just looking to get something for now. Thanks for the help.

Ok so other then water changes and backing off on the feeding what is another way to reduce and/or remove phosphates? Should I use chemicals or a phosphate reactor?

So I was unable to start a club in Winchester, but I found a forum that all of us on has turned into a kinda local club/family. The site is www.tattooed coral.com, it is hosted by a guy who runs a shop out of his home, Livewire Aquatics. He does monthly group buys. Other shops in the area I'd...

Wow! Everyone in this hobby seems so far away. Welcome guys.

That would be cool. I am always looking for more people in the hobby. My little girl has a fresh water with 3 glow fish and a suck fish. What kinds of coral does his have?

I'm in Winchester, Virginia, the next get together is the 11th of December in MD. If I can figure out how to PM on here I'll send you the forum name and if you join the guy that hosts it does special buys through his home run shop.

Well I thought I'd try since I saw this on here even though it was an old post. I still need to venture down that way some day so you can show me around those shops you told me about.

So I wasn't able to start one but I found a forum locally that meets up every few months so it pretty much is a club I guess. Thanks everyone who replied and showed intrest.

My name is Chris and I live in Winchester Virginia and work in Springfield. I still consider myself a newbe but set up my first salt tank back in March. So I have been a member of AA for a while but haven't been on much since I found other local forums. I figured I needed to check and see...

I may have to take you up on that. Thanks.

Thanks any way Mike. I got 2 people interested so far LOL. So is there any good shops down there?

I thought about it, but all the meetings and all are anywhere from 3 to 4 hours one way so I thought I'd try to start a new one if I had enough people locally who where interested.

Ok so I decided to see how many people would be interested in a reef club in the Winchester, VA area as I am looking to start one if there are enought people interested. Let me know who's out there.

True but it just seemed to convenant that they claim to have named the morph is why I am trying to find somebackground on the zoa. I have also seen next gen ones that are just as nice with a lower price but do not have the liniage I guess. I just want to make sure I am getting what I am paying...

The picture is one you can find anywhere on line of the single polyp on a disc, Baycorals I think was the name, I need to look again.

So I found this add for a shop in California that has Red Hornet Zoas for sale, I asked if they were the real or the next gen zoas and if they had a way way to show they where which ever one they claimed it to be. I get an answer saying they are the shop that named them and a voucher from them...

Thanks but I'm thinking I'm gonna push with this diy overflow. Just down to figureing out how to go about hooking the PH to it.

Ok so I am building an overflow box and to help keep it going in case of power outage I am adding a power head. Now the question I have is this, in the readings on how to make it start the cifen process I believe I am supposed to connect the in flow of the powerhead to the cifen part of the...

Oh I'll still be on here. Always need help with stuff. Luckily for me I found 2 reefers who have been a huge help so far somewhat close to me. If it weren't for them and those on here and the other site I use I'd be lost. I'll try and keep posting pictures as I continue to build my 55 up.

Thanks TC. Good to see you again. Getting close to getting my 55 up and then all this will get moved over. This little 5 has come along way. You been helping since the begining so thank you. Oh and I ended up getting an Oddysea Dual MH with T5's and LEDs. So no poor man special for me :)

Matt, I started sucking it out yester day when I did my water change. I'm being told that piece in question is a kenya tree possibly. I hade them in the sand but since I am running a small PC light they are reaching for the light so bad I had to move them up. When they move over to the...
