I wasn't aware Kessils could be controlled by the apex.

John, I also purchased the apex for my new project. I have had 2 sol blues on my 72 for a couple years now. Recently I purchased a vega which is not controllable by the Apex. I haven't figured out my strategy for lighting yet but I am considering sol blues which I can order custom pucks for and...

Nice scape. I think this is one of the more important parts of the reef because it is very disruptive to change once all the stuff is growing!:D

Excellent! I love the sound of silence:).

Can you share the delivery source?

I am trying to decide whether to use salt mix or NSW for my new project. Anyone know of a source to deliver to a residence and what the cost would be compared to mixing salt?

Can't see that video on you tube, any chance of a new link?

I have seen the return flow rate debated. I know Jeff Macare from Reef Dynamics recommends 2-3 x system volume return flow. I had considered this could be because it allows him to rate the skimmers higher? The more contact time the more junk can be pulled out with a given capacity Skimmer...

Beautiful system John. I can't wait for salt! Still running tap water so far. I have a similar hair algae problem in my 72, would you recommend the Fox face with SPS?

Thanks for the compliment John,o_O although it may be awhile before I'm ready. I want to get the back room cleaned up and presentable like. How much flow are you running through the return? I have not yet decided but the ghost is supposed to handle up to 4000 GPH.

Hey John, The last pipes which penetrate the sump from the 90 down are not glued for experimentation. At first, all pipes were above the water line which made things very noisy. After lengthening the two main pipes (outside, front and rear) to below the water line, my main siphon with the ball...

Hey Jim, In researching for my new tank I have been reading up about bio pellet reactors. Are you still using one? My understanding is that they reduce nitrates and phosphates. Is this redundant to the Vodka dosing? John

While shooting photos of the plumbing I noticed a cool reflection in the back face of the Ghost. I am going to miss that tank. My wife has implored me to keep it, but I need to make sure my hobby doesn't become a job.

This weekend I was able to plumb the drains from the ghost. After a little adjustment and a few changes on the configuration of the outlets into the sump, I was able to achieve total silence and zero bubbles @ 1800 GPH. I actually have to turn off the existing 72 bow front, skimmers and all to...
