as a rule of thumb - dont dose anything you don't test for. I would use the following: hannah checkers: alk / po4 (i use the phosphorous ulr) salifert test kit: cal, mag, no3

since im making some sps frags for cfm next year, ill make some extras for you. stop by the booth and pick up a pack to fill up your tank.

honestly, its all about learning. you can pick it up and see how it goes. then adjust when needed. you cant be a pro status without taking the plunge - that's how we learn.

not to burst your bubble, but keeping yellow isnt easy for sps. everyone has their own ideas on how to pull/keep the yellow coloration. in my experience, high par and dosing potassium keeps the yellow bright and vibrant. i do run high nutrients, but i dont know if that works or not with the...

for the price of what he is selling for, its a steal. i run the psk900 on my system. solid and quiet skimmer, neck cleaner function is a nice touch. no complaints here. looking forward to your build.

I bought a frag off jcc a year ago or so. it has some yellow but I can't pull the red/pink polyps from it yet. I did sell a frag to a member on here awhile back, unsure if he still has it and/or what it looks like.

with your scape, i dont think it is needed. but for me, you should look into a hybrid style with xr30s and t5's for your application. if you are going all full sps dominate, i would use all the 5x xr30s you have and not think about it - more par the better.

Thanks @Srt4eric for letting me man the booth for a few hours. It was good to chat with some old reefers and meet new ones in the process while I was there.

even though i am a "guest" i was a previous supporting member. i will be there, but I would like to help @Srt4eric at the 12pm to 2pm shift if you allow me.

not to high jack the thread, i will be placing a large order that qualifies for ups overnight delivery. i do not mind if anyone wants in on it. Pick up point is in San Leandro off marina blvd by the kaiser. deadline for your order is on monday 9/18.

i used to do a tablespoon per 1 gallon of saltwater. lately i just eyeball it.

coralrx and potassium chloride are what I use for dips.

i wouldnt worry about it. its all about the organics and nutrients in the water column. i overfeed my fish along with some ab+ when i remember. i barely get any foam during most of the day until i start feeding at night. to me, looks completely normal.

what kind of rsk skimmer are you running? what is the water level in your sump? i run a rsk900 at 8" water level and i open the valve so the water level is below the collection cup for dry skimming.

thanks for the invite. ill try to stop by and hang out. any special requests what i should bring as in sps to donate for the table or individuals? is my tsa the fuzz still avail at high tides?

ill take a 6 pack deal also.

can i come just to hang out? maybe secretly drop a few sps onto the bonus table while i am at it.

going sps? youre gonna need a bigger tank already with my collection that i will prepare for you.

sorry to hear Bob. if you get into the sps game again, I'll replenish what you lost. we can talk offline and try to narrow down what happen as well.

thanks for the ping. unfortunately I'm not cutting anytime soon and such a slow grower for me.
