    Anybody heard of the brand MPAC?

    I bought an Ro/di system last year and its time to change some of the filters. But I can't find any info on the system anywhere. It's pretty much standard looking and it's supposed to be a five stage, 75 gal per day system. The only brand name I can find is M PAC, with a little graphic with an...

    I've been reading up on the tunacates, way more going on there than I thought. Mine is starting to feed I guess, there's two holes opening in between the tan plates. I hope this is a good sign!!

    New live rock hitch hiker.

    I think the red thing is making a comeback. I blew it off this morning and it is bright red again. There are two white areas on it that look dead ( very small areas) and it is making a point. And the orange one is still getting better. Found some rock in there today that looked like it...

    How to keep amonia down?

    Yeah sorry, it was .15 - .20 but today it is 0. Nitrates are down to 10 and ph was 8.2. I think I'm finally getting the hang of this. You know I started this tank in January and I just kinda jumped in head first. Been having a blast ever since.

    Man I was drilling a hole in a 55 gal tank I got for 15 bucks, must have been tempered lol because it shattered. :-( I got half way through, figured if it was gonna break it would have already. I figured wrong.

    Do these turn into a larger colony or is it just a polyp here and there.

    This one is close but no yellow in mine. Looks just like this one but mine is clear and the skeleton is kinda green in the cracks. Probably recovering from a near death experience. I thought I saw some flouresense in the actinic light but idk.

    How to keep amonia down?

    It's small, there's only one and its tentacles are clear with a light dusting of white. It retracted when I picker it up but the tentacles at usually about 3/8 of an inch long.

    New live rock hitch hiker.

    Ok I have recently found some more new things on my new liverock. And the critters I knew about that were sick are doing better now. First off, the known critters. The red and the orange and tan I think are doing better. The red one not so much. It's got some sediment on it. Should I blow...

    How to keep amonia down?

    Ok, update time. I did a 50% water change last night, my nitrates were still holding at 30 ppm. Now they are down to 15, and ammonia is about 15-20 ppm. Should I add more bio spira or just wait?

    How to keep amonia down?

    Sure will. Making water tonight. There are more things popin up on my live rock and I bought a big bottle of bio spira and added half to the water. Turned off my skimmer too. Hope it all goes good. Thanks for the help, I will keep an eye on it :-)

    How to keep amonia down?

    The ammonia has dropped off to .05 and my nitrates are coming up from 10 to 30 so that means the BB are doing there jobs? There are little tube worms on the new rocks that are starting to come out. The red coral still looks bad but the orange one is looking better. I'm still getting the bio...

    The reddish orange one could pass as a tunacate but the orange and tan one has no holes witch look to be a trademark of the tunacates.
