I got mine from BRS. It goes out of stock every on and off .

Thanks. Just order the replacement tube. I have been lazy and ignoring the alkatronics maintenance (calibration, etc) for months. The reading driff by over 1dkh! That sorta explain why i lost 1-2 small frags and the larger colony not happy. Going to restart manual Hanna testing every week to...

The hose counter shows 1200 . It start sending me warning msg after 800. I just reset the counter . I figure I waited long enough pass the due date The gunk in C tube is weird as well. It’s the line for the acic reagent. I will probably replace that as well once I figure out the tube size

I tried rotating it . It won’t budge. I didn’t push too hard as I don’t want to break things

I bought the replacement tubing. Can’t figure out how to open the pump cover . Can’t find any information online either How do I open the blue dosing pump cover to get access to the tube?

Toothbrush. Control your nutrients and start scrubbing away

Super green hammer.

I’ll take it. Perfect timing. My colony not doing well and this will be perfect

I have been doing C for 3+years now. I don’t understand the problem. When I lose WiFi, hydros continue to function . You only loses the ability upload new programming . Existing programming will continue to run. I’m using XP8 . Maybe the WiFi strip has different behavior.

Yeah , have to ride out the storm. Hunker down and wait. I’m watching from the sideline this time.

A friend of mine recently asked what I’m stocking up. I said salt . You can image the puzzled look on his face. Lol I’m not sure where the reef salt is imported from or locally made, I just bought a couple of 200g box to use the Mr Chili bucks.

I have a tiny one from Biota in my 65g bare bottom with at least 100x turnover. he is a little timid in the first week, now roaming around. I don;t see the flow bothering the little guy. Even my 2 tiny dragonets don;t mind the flow.

i'll take a pic later tonight. snails might not get to it since its btw healthy tight branch. Since the sections that died is all over the place, random location, small area on parts of the coral, i can only frag a 2-3 inch section that is 100% unaffected. That would be my last option as i...

I had a small die off recently, but mostly recovered and things looking ok now. A sizable stylo colony had some peeling tissue, and green hair algae took hold on the skeleton. The rest of the coral seems to be doing fine now, and no longer receding. Any suggestion how do i tackle the gha? Its...

Good news is I’m back at dosing 80ml Alk per day(soda ash ) .Low was 60ml . Can’t really pint point the issue. Did some changes - salinity down to 1.025 ( from 1.026) - lower Alk from 8.5 to 7.5 over 3-4day period - increase trace dosing from 4ml to 5ml per day tank is definitely...
