Any advice on actually scooping up the dinos? Was hoping to meet up with someone on this forum that has a microscope for this. I think I’ll be trying this peroxide method with the 100% blue light over the next few days Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And did you guys broadcast it or did you use a baster and hit the sand with it directly? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Some parts are brown, some parts are red/purple Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is there any specific concentration of hydrogen peroxide to be using? Also, correct me if I’m wrong, I used a Hanna HI736 phosphate checker and I got a reading of 59. The HI736 is the model you have to do a separate calculation for since it’s in ppb not ppm yeah? I still need to go and pick...

Honestly, I suck at keeping this updated, but my tank has been running since July 2020. I'm gonna start documenting this fight against Dinos here. My tank has consistently been running at: 8.8 alk 450-470calcium 1450 magnesium. Falling into cyano or dinos is definitely my fault because I was...

Hey folks, I noticed a red carpet take over the floor of my tank so I picked up dr Tim’s waste away and refresh thinking it was Cyanobacteria. I’ve followed dr Tim’s instructions the past two weeks treating my tank for cyano, but it turns out, my red algae became brown over this two week...

Do people usually drill through the back side of those cabinets, or do they add an extra piece of plywood inside? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t think I will, I’d like to do all my work and cable management for my controllers outside, so I might try to just buy a cabinet to keep to the side of my tank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you have pictures? I’m definitely gonna try to DIY something soon. I think I may actually just get a small ikea besta shelf and modify it to organize everything. I don’t wanna risk anything toward the structural integrity of the stand. Thanks for the suggestion! Sent from my iPhone using...

Hey folks, So I’ve recently considered making a DIY controller board to organize all of my cables and hold all of my controllers. Initially I was thinking about somehow nailing or drilling into my IM40 stand, but I did want some opinions on if that’s a good idea or not. Would that damage...

What’s up folks. I bought my IM 40 second hand and it came with a maxspect razor that was pretty old already. Probably gonna be window shopping the market for new lights and I just wanted to see what everyone’s favorite lights are. I’m preferably looking into a light that has a mount that...

What's up everybody, I realized as I'm putting more controllers onto my IM40 setup, I'd like to keep my controllers for my system outside. I have the older edition IM40 stand, and I just wanted to ask, how would you go about organizing controllers on the side of a stand without drilling into...

Hey everyone, I was informed that PG&E is gonna be having a planned power outage in my neighborhood from 9am-3:30pm on November 3rd. What should I do to make sure that my tank doesn't crash over the 6 hour period? Does anyone have any recommendations on where to rent a generator or a backup...

Hey everyone. I recently picked up a jebao dp-4 dosing pump. I'm basically writing this post to ask for advice on calibrating the pumps themselves. I know people generally use that airline tubing, but I'm going to try to use RO lines instead. Should all of my in lines and out lines be the...

Hey, if there’s still a piece available, can I get one? Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can I take the smaller one? Where are you located? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
