I am using a great ACAN LED system but word of caution: you will never be in an underlit condition. You will most likely need to tune down the intensity as the lux (especially the white higher temp lights) is more than even my two acro's could handle. I am running my 'whites' at 45% and my...

I had a small outbreak two months after my new setup after a teardown- I put two peppermints in a 180 gallon tank to control any new outbreaks and used Joe's on the established. Three weeks later I was and still am rid of the problem. Peppermints are key in keeping what you have from...

Do they have to form an HOA with fees since separate residences..lol. That is a great pic!

Thanks, that substantiates what my LFS coral guru told me today. I've notice a bit of cyano just in my refugium since I introduce BRS Biopellets but it has been very manageable most likely due to the tad higher Mg levels. I may even pump up my Ca Rx for a week or two as I can seem to get some...

Yes, Brightwell does have a higher level of Mag than most of the other brands, most likely the culprit but it also has positives that outweigh that negative. I guess since it's not overly high and things are good, I'll stay the course. Thx!

Thanks little fish! I actually started my aquarium hobby back in '93 while living in Denver. Have not lived there in some time but always drove down from Evergreen to a shop called Aquaria on Colorado near the I-25 onramps (maybe 4 blocks north). Just curious if they're still around.

wow, that's interesting. Will look into the pH...thanks for making me think I had covered all reading topics ever written, :D. Actually, always looking for a new subject. I'll be researching same.

Thx, reassuring to know someone else has heard the same. As 'perfect' as we all want every parameter to be, it may just not be possible. Can't complain as all is thriving in tank, knock on wood- or glass! Great site, will provide pics this week.

New to this site, so hello all! I know there is not much out there as far as concrete information on possibilities of high Mg levels and to whether they may or may not be toxic to corals- I have a 180 gallon with favias, acros, euphellias, montipora capricornis, you name it. All are doing...
