My phosphates are actually bottomed out and I’m dosing to bring them up, cyano is my battle currently. I swore off gfo after my first tank setup had some acros stripped from dropping too quickly, now my only phosphate removal strategy is water changes. Safest option

Thanks for the offer! I bit the bullet and got some Jebao's about two weeks ago. Still fighting the ugly stage!

@MolaMola Going great! I'll have to get some updated pics, but the vision is certainly coming together. My last thing I am trying to figure is some good long-term powerheads. However, the setup is currently a 50gal low-boy frag tank that is going through the new tank uglies, but snails are...

good instincts looking out for vermetids on torches! vermetids stung and killed the torch on the right in my profile pic :(

I can't rave enough about the emerald crabs from reefcleaners; they literally have a money-back guarantee if the emerald crabs don't eat the bubble algae. 5 of them did so well in my tank that after they all cleared the BA, there was so little algae that I think starvation caused them to die and...

Looking to stock my classroom tank and would love the clowns and a nem! Where are you located?

I’ll add into this thread that I put in a reefcleaners order a month or so ago, the emerald crabs go right for the bubble algae, the Pitho crabs seem dopey and ineffective, albeit entertaining

Update time on what has been a very active summer in my classroom: The good: 1) I need to give a HUGE thanks to @Srt4eric for all of his help - he handed me a POND UV clarifier - who woulda thunk it! And, well, it was broken, tried to replace the bulb and am pretty sure it was a ballast issue...

Not surprised, you’re a genie! Looking for a 90 gallon rated skimmer for that frag tank I’m building out, headed down that way on Friday . Let me know if you see it!

No prob!

Still available?

picking up this afternoon!

The IT department has been about as interested in this subject as the students are in math, so I think I'll be ok lol. Trying out a dongle today that came in the mail, fingers crossed!

Quick update on this tank going into summer: I hate our school Wifi. The tank has been dark for a month now, (both literally and analytically) because the school decided to upgrade the wifi to 5Ghz, and from my understanding, both the Neptune Apex and the Reefbreeders wifi systems are 2.4 Ghz...

I'd love to grab it from the front of your house this afternoon if you'd let me! It's go to a good cause, my school tank just has an unsectioned 40 breeder as the sump, and really need to be an actual sump

Checking in on the sump, if it is still unclaimed!

Wish I could! Prior engagement that day, plus I am only tackling softies while I make sure my source water is of quality. I REALLY need to be seeking out a BRS RODI filter, the DI cannisters they have on campus are crap

I would love to grab him for my 150 gallon classroom tank, with is VERY lightly stocked as of now!

@xcaret I am looking very busy these next few weeks and not able to get up to SF, but here is a big coral fan!

Haha glad I am the one people think of with school donations! What is his day off out of curiosity? I'd love em but tough getting up to the city. Currently exhausted after making cheese in my Bio class and then the classic titration lab in Chemistry, but fun day at work
