Mann that colony is beautiful! Truly one of the pieces that had people early on aspiring to keep SPS. I'm glad these OG pieces are still around and we'll cared for. I have a batch of fish that will be going in soon that I know will have an impact on the nutrients, as well as a kalk pump coming...

I hope it's good stuff..its part of what I added to my tank early on lol. I will say tho, the quantity recieved is quite small. That one was the green plastic one right? I can't recall the brand, but starting the siphon everytime sucked....literally

I think you may be thinking of IPSF. Very similar in products that Sally Jo offered, but they didn't have the iconic bonsai come out of their shop

Anyone that can remember this should know what Garf is haha

Mann, you took it back..haha I wish Garf was still around! Starting a refugium with that and Miracle mud gave me the confidence to stock any fish...then I said screw it and got a denitrator..lol

Biome building (cont.) A week ago I received an email alert that the Indo rubble was finally in stock at Aquabiomics. I quickly added a couple to my cart and checked out while. Glad I did, cuz when I checked it 10 minutes later to see if I should add another, they were sold out. The water they...

It looks great, but yea...the stacking with no support would leave me a little uneasy... What are you planning on having atop? Maybe leave a little more room for growth?

That's good to hear! Mine has been close. Not identical to the hanna but enough to give me a good idea of the trends. I've been trying to raise my nutrients and have been able to see it slowly rise. I figure once I get the next batch of fish in, it'll up the feed and in turn the nutrients with...

The Royal Gramma didn't make it. I think it was a poor choice on my part to QT him with the anthias. As soon as the copper went in they started picking him apart. Odd man out I guess. The male was pretty relentless in his pursuit. I doubt a 10 gallon is big enough to do them all at the same...

Agreed 100%.

Next up in QT

Those are pretty dope...do frags move in the flow or do you find them pretty secure? That brush is coming in really handy..small side can get into tough spots on the gyre and the large side is stiff enough to remove coraline.

Got my first shipment of corals in from battle corals. I gotta say, Adam was really great to work with in tailoring a battlebox to what I was looking for. As soon as the box came in I was quite impressed. The box was pack well, with no dead space and heatpacks. No matter what way the box would...

First fish to make it through QT! The blue tang originally came with a convict from biota..both came in tiny and pretty skinny. Both came in around a month ago. When starting QT I thought, if I'm going to go through all this trouble with dips and a full on copper protocol, I might as well...

I hope you find the little guy..glad to hear everything else is fine after your vacation tho. Bacteria and a good CUC did it for me as well...my ugly stage lasted a month. Dinos and GHA..30 days and a CUC later, no trace of the uglies..
