My go to electrician is Adary. Fantastic folks and solid work

Ah no...unfortunately. ...except maybe I've accepted the fact that it's near 100% loss vs struggling to try to save the pieces. Ironically in my struggle to save the corals by moving it to a fresh QT tank actually caused them to decline faster... probably due to ammonia spike from the...

silver lining... i guess.

Truth be told, the math works out a bit less than 1.4 cups... but 1.4 is easier to measure. :) Mixes completely in 1G. sometimes sediments will settle right after mixing but will dissolve after some time.

If you use RFH's recipe, it should workout to 1.4 cup soda ash to 1 gal btw. He starts with 2 cups baking soda, and uses the resulting amount of soda ash after baking. If you use straight soda ash, the math works out to about 1.4 cups.

I used to have a target that worked well... less successful with regular ones though. But there were so many that i had to get them cleared in a hurry ... ironically, to save my corals and frags. But now, nothing to save. I think the overnight exposure to the toxins / dead flatworms sent my...

Believe it or not, all that is from the flatworms oozing and exploding

Did another full water change. Water finally clear(-er). See how orange the water still was after the first near 100% WC? Ugh.

IM20 Frag === I've yet again screwed up this week... Destroyed half if not most of my collection in this tank. Had a massive flatworm outbreak that's been building for months... finally decided to take care of them by dosing melafix. I've done this before and never really proved to be a problem...

@RandyC -- nvm... just scrolled down and saw the CaliKid comment... :)

that looks like one of those from Neptune... did you get this there?

Indeed. Many a mishap doing late night tank work. And yet, i still do it. ...hard to find time otherwise. Sigh

I've once again proven myself to be an idiot. Was transferring my last remaining holygrail baby torch to my frag tank after completing treatment... while i was at it, thought it would be a good idea to pick off the vermetids on the plug. Between my eyes adjusting from the bright blue lights...

Comment really on the Neptune stuff. A thin gasket or even silicone would have averted many problems. No real impact to cooling... DOS and EB832 are great starts.

how about products that work and are moisture/humidity resistant? I've lost so many pieces or have had to deal with electronic failures due to a bit of moisture or condensation. a lil gasket to seal the seams would go a long way...

Those are... and I am. :) Will PM

My orange shoulders do an amazing job

Upgraded to a bigger tile... about 43 mouths. +2 ripped off stuck to the crate when I lifted the chalice to the big tile. :)

Man after my own heart!

Get an autoflush valve from BRS... or any RODI company... or Amazon. :). There's a video tutorial on the page below as well. https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/aquatec-auto-flush-flow-restrictor.html
