Hey Randy, How do you get the water out? Do you have spigot on the bottom?

Hello Everyone, What are your thoughts on using a Rubbermaid 20 gallon storage container for RODI water storage? Do you think it is safe? I was thinking I could plumb a spigot in the bottom to empty into my bucket. Filling 5 gallons buckets with RODI takes forever and a day. This is the...

Thank you Randy. I placed the order yesterday, so should have them by the end of the week. thank you!

Randy, Thank you for offering to swap out a set of Maxspect nano blocks. I am going to order (2) to trade with you. How long have they been in your tank? I am excited to see how this improves my SPS keeping.

Does anyone know if the reef rubble from the ocean at Neptunes in San Jose?

Does anyone in the club with an established reef want to sell me some of their live rock rubble?

So do you think reef rubble from Tampa Bay Saltwater would speed up the process?

Thanks guys.

This is how they die, from the base up. This coral was brand new 3 weeks ago. Used to be a green slimer.

New Development., I came home tonight to discover this green stuff growing on my Stylo.

Randy, Thank you for the info.

Do you think I should turn up my lighting? Maybe just a little? Coral Reefer helped me with my light settings back in November. I don't want to mess them up. This was the final lighting from November:

They die a slow death from the base up. Lately the are taking longer to die. I have had the two for about 3 weeks. The green slimer and stylo are losing tissue from the base up. Oh, and something new I just started happening is they tips of the corals are turning brown.

PizzaOven, Thank you for the reply. I have tried several different types of SPS. Green Slimmer, Rainbow Montipora, Digitata, and a few others. JVU gave me a few to add to my tank as well. I feel bad, they did not live very long. Thank you for the offer. As soon as I can get one to live...

Group, I am considering adding some live rock rubble from "Tampa Bay Saltwater" to my sump area. I started my tank with Dry Rock 11 months ago and cannot keep an SPS alive to save my life. I have read that Dry Rock can take up to 2 years to fully cycle and be ready for SPS. The other corals...

Fishy 408, Thank you for the info on the MP-10 vibration. I have the same issue. I just ordered some molykote grease. Great info! Louis

Thank you Mike, How far would you bump up the whites? I am thinking about bumping up the whites from 15% to 25%?

The picture below shows the PAR values I am seeing. Please let me know if anyone has any comments on the PAR values. If they are good, then I am done with the PAR meter. Thank you for your help. I am hoping my SPS stop turning white.

Tonight I made the changes to the light schedule. I shortened the duration and turned down the red and green. See below.
