I've got 3" of crushed coral in the tank again, and credit some of the success of the last system to having massive ammounts of biological filtration. I used the same strategy here, so here's to hoping it all ends up the same! I do see tons of pods, but as we discussed above it sounds like...

Great points all so far. On my shopping list now is: Foundation (nowhere to be found on brs or swa, I'll keep looking), sponges (all over the cleaning aisle of Albertsons), "unknown complexity", a "shitload" of coral, and patience. Who wants to place bets on when I stop killing "easy corals"...

I was wondering this recently. My 300 has all dosing set and a huge water volume, so no major swings. On my old tank, I found that once the tank hit 12 months, and really when it hit 18 months, coral growth took off. Does anyone know the mechanism as to why things like Seriatopora...

If you get stuck, I'll pay for shipping to Vegas and it can live in my 300, but I hope someone local can take it. Live aquaria says min 360 though, so here's to hoping someone local with a bigger tank than I have can take it.

They are $250-$300 a head here in Vegas

I got a cheap used one, and am going to swap hoses out with the new silicon. And yes, I am getting pretty good at the "refurbishing" of these

My only addition would be to stack books or something to set the cabinets on, then screw into place. Hard to hold the cabinet and work the screw gun at one time.

I did, needed new reagents, the tubes needed connecting, and two of the solenoids needed to be pushed back into place. It's working now.

I think I found replacement tubing here for anyone looking to refresh their tubing. Much cheaper than the stuff on amazon. https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=134741&clickid=search

Because Rich on Reef Beef does it! And I want to be just like him when I grow up. Also @Thales , I wore my Reef Beef shirt you signed and to the local Vegas coral show and got so much street cred. I need to bring it to a show that Ben is at, or maybe mail it to him to get the other shoulder...

If things look weird, 50% water change will reset everything. Perks of a nano!

You are going to make lots of friends in this club.

Come on, you aren't that old. Remind me though, were you on the Nina, the Pinta, or the Santa Maria?

Looks like a great display and sump!

Reef crystals for the win!

You don't need to justify yourself loving aquatic life with this group. Like minds around.

My first one worked for 3 plus years straight. I think the growth of the company has left their quality control behind.

Got my refurbished trident in the mail today after waiting a month. Out of the box, the inlet hose wasn't connected to the black hub and two of the solenoids were not pushed into their home position including the intake one, which might explain the hose pulled off of the hub. I took the cover...

Who needs zoas in their tanks, haha

Just read humble fish, that's the best source
