    ISO OG purple monster

    I'm not ready for the price tag. ;) I sorta have an idea how much it is and it's prolly re-donk-u-lous. Of course if you find a reasonably price frag, I'd jump on it.

    Lawofficeaquariums.com doesn't have their OG purple monster colony anymore.

    Are carbon doser v1 any good ?

    I have four Carbon Dosers (various revisions of the "V1") in service, the longest has been running for 7ish years. A dual stage regular is generally better, but I personally haven't seen the need for me to change yet. Would I repair one? Sure depending on cost.

    Richie's 48x24x12 frag tank

    Make sure to have a float valve in the container should you forgot to manually switch it off or don't have an automatic timer setup to switch it off for you. Better yet, just have your ATO configured with float switches and use a controller to trigger filling it to a high sensor or for a period...

    Richie's 48x24x12 frag tank

    I wired most of them to run off the 24V accessory port on the apex, though there are some wired to a 12V power block and controlled via a switched outlet.

    Richie's 48x24x12 frag tank

    In my experience, those push connect solenoids will eventually not fully close and slowly drip/leak even when power is off. I have opted to switch everything out to one of these two 9-36V/24V 1/2" motorized ball valves. Usually the US Solid brand. https://a.co/d/5XrxWbT...

    DBTC: SCOP (Sexy Corals Orange Passion) tenuis

    After the dino problem in the frag tank last summer, this thing just seemed to stall completely. So, I thought I'd help it move along and cut it into a few pieces. I cut this Jan 29. And here it is today. Hopefully, this will start to go vertical soon.

    DBTC: CC 21 Tails Torch

    Sheesh, this thing has some seriously long tentacles for a torch with such a small, tiny skeleton.

    Trident alerts?

    You can set it in the email or sound alerts like above or go to the "Inputs" section and select Alk/Ca/Mg and set range for the alarm.

    Torch Collectors - question on Holy Grail Torches

    There is none. All that you can expect is that the person is the original buyer and has their invoice/receipt. Very rarely will it pass further than that.

    TSA Holy Grail - Any leads

    I have a Calikid secret society. Which pretty much looks like a Master Torch.

    Free Tigger Pods -Monterey CA

    There are species that bred in saltwater, but they obviously breed/live near the coast. Not sure if they make it inland or not once they're flying. https://www.smcmvcd.org/seasonal-mosquitoes#:~:text=California%20Salt%20Marsh%20Mosquito%20(Aedes,edges%20of%20natural%20water%20sources.

    Randy’s Flock o' Reef Tanks

    I don't really fish them out. I have a sponge I use to keep the water splashing to an minimum and I just take that out and shake it in a bucket. Can get a handful every few days. I feed New Life Spectrum pellets mixed in with some Reef Chili twice a day from an auto feeder, once a day I feed...

    Randy’s Flock o' Reef Tanks

    150 Gallon Tank (Day 60) While the tank has been clearing up from the bacterial bloom, the water has finally reached a point where it's close to being crystal clear. While a good chunk of the cloudiness cleared up, it took a while longer than I thought it would to get rid of the last little...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    If i actually ever had mechanical filtration in my tanks and I used something like this, I'd take it the pressure washer to it. That would probably clean it up in minutes.

    Calcium Reactors

    Using a secondary reactor filled with more media. Dosing kalk (everyone's favorite). Making sure there is really good gas exchange (skimmer or surface agitation).

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    The AC ones. I'm actually replacing all the ones that were on my calcium reactors and media reactors. I just find in general the seem to start rattling in the any of the synchra line of pumps. Not sure if the impellers swells or gets warped, but they all end up being noisy for me.

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    Sicce Synchra Silent pumped are anything but silent. I've been slowly replacing them on anything I have running on the tanks.
