    Red dots on torch stem - acceptable?

    If they’re hard and kinda spiked, it’s likely a form of red spiked coralline algae. Homotrema rubrum

    Thinking of upgrading

    Might want to check with @under_water_ninja, I believe he’s a IM reseller. Maybe shipping is less expensive?

    More small clams in! Maxima, deresa, and crocea.

    It typically is between 5-6 because of atmospheric CO2. It could be 7 if it was just made and a measurement was taken rather quickly or made/stored in a vacuum without exposure to CO2. ;)

    Skimmer not making bubbles

    This is a big swing out in the middle of nowhere and is probably not the case, but is the Venturi ring (where the air tube is connected) tight when screwed onto the motor? Any chance that it’s loose and water is being pulled before the air can be pulled?

    Pressurized kalk reactor

    How much evaporation do you have a day? Without a sump, I’d have to think that at 1.5-2L would be close to the daily amount. You’re reaching the limits of how much you can dose with kalk I’d imagine and you’ll have to change methods or add a secondary method soon. Honestly, I think if you want...

    Return pump speed

    Not too much…assuming there’s roughly 25% loss from head pressure, you’re only doing ~1500gph - 10x tank turnover. That’s not a crazy amount.

    Preparing tank after teardown

    How bad is the algae encrusted? If it’s not bad, just empty and use a razor blade to scrape it off. Then just use a Dobbie scrubbing pad to scrub the rest of the algae. I never fill up a tank with citric acid or vinegar, costs too much now for citric acid and is unnecessary. I just use a little...

    How to glue acro colonies to rocks - looking for advice

    Too much trouble! ;) Just have a healthy tank and secure it long enough with a ton of superglue so that it can encrust and secure itself. Only takes like a week right? ;) Honestly though, I’ve only been using superglue for frags and colonies for years now. It’s all about have enough of it...

    How to glue acro colonies to rocks - looking for advice

    Mount to a small rock or rubble that fits where you want it to be on your scape, then outside the tank mount the colony on the small rock/rubble with super glue (epoxy is optional) and use a super glue accelerator. Then glue the small rock/rubble to the scape.

    Help reopen Hawaii aquarium fishery and Koji Wada Pink Nephthya raffle!

    You’ve never had anchovies or sardines or shrimp or clams? If size is a gauge of whether or not something is edible, a lot of things fail that litmus test. It’s just that some only that wanna save the cute/pretty ones.

    Fragging Questions

    I prefer the smaller tubes of super glue gel. Less clogging and hardening of glue in the applicator tip. Use for one fragging session and done. https://a.co/d/a5E1RlP

    I text John at advanced acrylics directly otherwise could be difficult to get a response.

    Switching from Max E 170 to IM 50 AIO?

    While I would never get anything but glass (probably) for my display tank, I love having 3/4” or 1” acrylic for a 12” or less frag tank. I find myself leaning on it more often than I should and I would never do it that on glass.

    Switching from Max E 170 to IM 50 AIO?

    Yes. All I read was “bigger tank.”
