    Hi New Sucker from East Bay

    I'm struggling with what to do with my Aquascape so thought the custom design he makes is cool. I guess the downside is with going synthetic like this you lose the porous bacteria on rock and most likely need to add media but he does create some nice cool designs. On a side note I just measured...

    Hi New Sucker from East Bay

    Never thought about this but just ordered one.... I also got a refractometer from a neighbor that brews wine and worked in the wine industry and a great source as he is a master in his craft and although is not a reefer is a god resource. I also added the Flipper Nano no sale though. Need test...

    Hi New Sucker from East Bay

    Ok, so my biggest fear and something I know I will not be happy about is algae and all the ugliness I see in so many tanks. I asked my LFS when I purchased the tank if I should start curing my rock and he told me they have live rock and saw it in the back. By the way my LFS is Aquatic Collection...

So cool but $2.50 per pound and havent figured out shipping yet. My wife is telling me I'm going overboard with this an dI should slow down...

    Hi New Sucker from East Bay

    You all awesome! I'm supposed to be working but this new adventure is driving me insane. I hear the bad things about Red Sea and also heard good stuff but I pulled the trigger so its done. The reason I went with the E170 is it allows some space to eventually add a Sump. So far have been a...

    Hi New Sucker from East Bay

    These guys. https://tbsaltwater.com/ They claim they harvest rock and sand and ship direct from Florida. I am also looking for a 150W heater for my E170 and will probably order the Kraken top. I'm pumped up and excited! Since Xmas always misses me its my gift to myself. :)
