I've noticed some of you used or have used Marine SAT, do you simply does it and thats it? no large water changes after the dosing? Any tips would be awesome.

I believe iodine changes to iodide shortly after it's introduced into the tank, correct me if im wrong. Well the other day i was at the LFS i beleive it was one of the Kent Marine Iodide supplements that on the back of the bottle that it said Iodine is toxic in certain amounts so is best to just...

So i got a Sea Hare yesterday while i was getting some more fish food. I put him in the tank and he starting eating algae right away and seems to be doing great. It's now been about 12 hours since i've seen him. he's about twice the size of a golf ball and pretty hard to miss so do they just go...

http://www.current-usa.com/nanoplanner.html wondering if anyone uses it. Im installing it now to see how it is. it's free so i can't complain to much if it's no good.

With my new rock came about half a 5g bucket of rubble rock ranging from half an inch to 2 inch or even 3 inch pieces. Should i just put that into the sump to fill in the small areas with the other larger rock I plan on putting in there? what are the uses for rubble? i know many use em for frags...

Im curious to know who here if anyone does make there own reef food. I've been thinking of trying to make some so i'd like to see any tips and suggestions any of you may have. even if you just take a few of the already fozen foods like mysis, cyclop-eeze, formula one and two etc, and just blend...

http://www.solarisled.com/ Wanted to see what everyones thoughts are on the new Solaris coming out soon. I would love to try one of these fixtures but... $2,800 for the fixture to fit my tank. If it really does use 40% less energy than a 400w MH the cost would surely pay off quickly. I know...

Got it up and running great!! :bounce: This thing pulls out skimate i couldn't even come close to with my ASM. I don't know what my ASM skimmers deal is but i cleaned the thing from top to bottom and just never got any skimate and am now convinced that the ASM skimmer is part of the reasons why...

ok so i've dosed Chemi-Clean twice now and have done 20% water changes after each dose and waited the 24hours after dosing to turn on the skimmer and while i wasn't running a skimmer i waws hooking up my new Aqua C skimmer and i just turned it on and it's foaming like crazy so i know this is...

Just picked up a bunch of rock from a guys home in the local reef club where i live $80 for 4 bins of Utah Aragonite Rock/ Lake Bonneville Tufa Rock (LBTR) and as a added bonus he gave me a small calcium reactor. I plan on taking some of the rock to a high pressure wash station and using the...

well my tanks been up for a year now and my chaeto was in my refugium for nearly all of that time but it has only grown to about 4x the original size. it was in a high flow area with a good light but i still would have thought it would have grown more. Of course i did just get my new refugium...

Ok so i know that doing water changes regularly helps to keep phosphates and nitrates down which in turn help keep algae down and it also helps replentish trace elements. Other than those reasons why else do you need to do water changes? Man this sounds like such a newbish question, im...

19 days since i've ordered a 50lb box of base rock. I ordered on the 1st and my credit card was billed on the 5th. there are many people in the same boat right now. Some guy on Reefcentral has been waiting 47 days for his order! I would not use this vendor. he does not answer his phone, reply...

I am curious of everyones methods for maintaining Calcium, Alkalinty, and Magnesium and what brands or name of the suplements you use. I noticed my Mag and alk a bit low. Im out of calcium test and hoping to find somemore today at the fish store.

Fridgid Blue Clauveria (AKA clove polyp) I know there pretty easy to care for and grow very fast and like medium amounts of light. anyone had some before? or have tips for them? i just ordered a frag after a nice discussion with the owner of them. He said he said me something extra with it cause...
