    Archohelia Rediviva

    I have no experience with automatic feeding of non-photo corals... I suspect that you will need to have really optimized flow and have a very good flow situation that will keep all of the food suspended in order to make sure the archohelia gets enough food. I cover my whole archohelia...

    Help: Stay with Tunze or switch to Vortech?

    Fair enough Gresh! :) On the flipside though, has Neptune confirmed official planned support for Vortech yet? I am assuming so, but haven't seen anything definitive to that fact.

    Help: Stay with Tunze or switch to Vortech?

    Well put Mike. The one thing I would say is that the 6105s are noticeably smaller and better looking in the tank than the old 6x00s. I really like the way they made them so easily positionable. I also was not a huge fan of the Vortech controller... it's nice if you have no controller...

    Help: Stay with Tunze or switch to Vortech?

    I know... I just don't know why I had so many problems. I ran the Vortechs for around four months I think and during that time they came off countless times. I had two exchanges with EcoTech. I even probably have photos of the locked up impellers somewhere. I was really disappointed because...

    Help: Stay with Tunze or switch to Vortech?

    I've owned Vortechs and Tunzes. Here's my $0.02: Vortech MP40w: + Smaller profile in tank + Nice controller integrated if you don't have an Apex or AC3 + aquasurf + Broader flow (Noticeably so, although I wouldn't say that the Tunzes are too narrow.) + Runs cooler (Good in summer...

    Starving Anemone?

    If tentacles are ripped off and floating around the tank, I would suspect the anemone is not healthy... Make sure your flow is not too high.

    Depressed- Thinking about Getting Out

    Does a lack of CO2 cause problems beyond making it hard to keep your PH up? Steve, I didn't see it in this thread, but do you have an idea on what your tank ph is and whether it swings a lot from day to night?

    Rose Bubble Tip Anemone (RBTA)

    You're welcome! Out of curiosity, is the RBTA bubbled up or are the tentacles straight in your tank?

    Shoppin' Time! :P

    I didn't get allowance, but I got paid for my report cards. A's: $20 B's: I owed $10 C's: I owed $50 If I ever got anything below it would probably have been a spanking. Fortunately I was a really good student. :)

    Setting up a top-off.

    Sure, I'm not sure I have the right size that you need though. The watson marlow pump that I used it one was quite small. What size do you need?

    Setting up a top-off.

    Actually I was using Norprene that I had purchased from a medical supply house. (I still have like 20 feet of the stuff left.) Honestly, though, this was back in my early reefing days and I probably wasn't doing something correctly. :)

    Setting up a top-off.

    I've used a lab grade watson marlow peristaltic continous pump and a different (non cole parmer) medical pump and I just had problems with both. (Tubing would wear out quickly, very limited head pressure, etc.) I haven't used the cole parmer, so I can't comment on them. I hear they work...

    Anyone know what type of ricordia this is ?

    I don't know if it's true, but I was told that yumas have bumps on the mouth whereas ricordeas have smooth mouths.

    Pistol Shrimp Assasination

    I took all my shrimp out of my displays. I got sick of them picking food out of all my LPS.
