    Thoughts on a Solution for Tank Starting to leak while on Vacation

    I had my only friend in Berkeley do this this morning. That is the extent of their capabilities unfortunately. I have a about a 1" spacer on the down tube that I could remove but they where not comfortable doing that

    Thoughts on a Solution for Tank Starting to leak while on Vacation

    Can anyone help me understand what's better.... running my return pump, or letting it chill. Is there a minimum I should run it. Would an hour on, hour off help or hurt?

    Thoughts on a Solution for Tank Starting to leak while on Vacation

    Im working on this part of the solution. Im originally from north bay so I'd be having someone come from there.

    Thoughts on a Solution for Tank Starting to leak while on Vacation

    Yes.... Im on Vacation. Turned on the Camera this morning to see drips coming down my tank. I called a friend to go over in which they show me it is coming from top corner of glass. One drip every 15 seconds or so. It seems to slow down when i turn my return pump off and let the water drain...

    Frags for newer reefers wanting to attend the frag swap

    I wish I could sign up for these. Im trying to populate my first tank that's about 8 months old. I just am unfortunately not going to be able to attend the frag swap. I'll be swimming with hammerheads so I'll be out of the country. I'll have to wait till the next one. Hopefully by then I'll...

    Changes to frag swaps going forward

    Thanks @Alexander1312 I was planning on coming on and providing some feedback but got caught up with the workweek. Here is my attempt now. I actually appreciate a lot of the responses here. I agree with some that I am overthinking it a little, but I was doing it on purpose a little bit...

    Changes to frag swaps going forward

    Im not sure if this is the appropriate place to discuss this, but this thread has brought up some worries for me to now participate in any future frag swaps. Simply for fear of disappointing. I am somewhat a newbie to reefing and also to fragging. I have not had many failures yet fragging but...

    Help identifying something in my tank. (Egg sac?)

    I am aware of the concerns with the palythoa and am just treating them like they are undesirable and potentially unsafe. It is a big reason why I am spinning up a different tank as I plan to quarantine and try to kill it off. But as of now I don't have any pressing issues and am enjoying the tank.

    Help identifying something in my tank. (Egg sac?)

    Just adding that I think I found a good 3-6 more in the same spot of the tank. Under that little shelf looks like 3-4 under there. That top one almost appears like it has a mouth. Thoughts? Still a sponge? Still ok to leave as a science experiment?

    Help identifying something in my tank. (Egg sac?)

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's not super harmful or invasive? So I just let it grow and see if everyone is right?
