    Probably not under warranty since I've had it a few years. Thanks for the suggestions. Drain it again was not want I wanted to hear but I think your probably right... now would be the best time to do that. I wish I would have saved up some more for a nice IM 30 AIO or something similar.

    JDs 24 Gallon

    small update. after waiting "patiently" for my copepods (which got stuck in Spark, NV due to the blizzard over I-80 this weekend)... I was finally able to add the Galaxy pods in and lights are on now. Also added a small amount of Chaeto ... then I noticed this.... It looks like the baffle...

    JDs 24 Gallon

    Quick update. I took the @Darkxerox advice and performed a mass water change this weekend. I added 10 gallons of sea water from Neptune. Without getting super nerdy on the actual volume of water, (considering displacement form rocks/sand and yada yada), that 10 gallons was what looked to be a...

    JDs 24 Gallon

    No corals currently... the pic with corals was my old tank... I removed it from the chat to be clear. I assume PPM but I didnt ask I was planning on doing a water change this weekend... I can easily grab some sea water from Neptune. And Looks like there will be a 5g bucket of Coral Pro for...

    JDs 24 Gallon

    small update Just had my tank water tested... here are the results. (its probably good to mention that the sand and the ceramic bio media I was running before the move / tear down is the same, I didn't replace those, just the rocks only are new. The tank sat empty for 4 days before I had time...

    Thanks for the advice. I'll Monitor the parameters closely... Unfortunately I have a basically brand new (few months old) 5G bucket of the Coral Pro that will take me quite some time to get through. So I'm stuck with it for the time being. Its funny you say that though, because although I do...

    How did you find out about @ BAR?

    I originally heard of BAR at the CFM, but I joined after seeing the card on the counter over at Neptune.

    JDs 24 Gallon

    Even though I've had a SW tank since 2018 I still have a lot to learn about coral keeping. Here's my 24 Gallon. Its a AIO Aqua Japan has the rounded glass in the front which looks really nice IMO. I originally started this with some Caribsea Fiji pink sand, if I remember correctly. Since I...

    Hello and Intro - JD from SJ

    Hello and Greeting Reefers! I'm John. Currently living In San Jose. I've had a "reef" tank back around 2018... a 10 Gallon (that's all I was allowed to have in our apartment at the time) I'll see if I can dig up some pics of that tank. That tank lasted around 2 years when I had a mass die...
