    How to mix Granular Activate Carbon and Granular Ferric Oxide

    Made a little instructional video: Weigh out the GAC and GFO using a digital scale. Mix outside or in a well ventilated area and wear a mask to avoid the harmful dust of the carbon and iron oxide. Once weighed and bagged wash and soak in RO/DI water. Disclaimer: It is not recommended...

    Mangrove question

    It would be fine, my only concern is the glue on the mangrove, not sure if that would be bad or not. They can grow without substrate of any kind, you will actually get larger more diverse roots as they are looking for a hold fast.

    Does this seem crazy to anyone else?

    No, maxi minis do not normally host clowns. However, I imagine you might luck out with a clown that hosts in the mini, just like when a clown decides to host in a LPS like a frogspawn. Again, very unlikely that they would with a maxi mini.

    Probiotic dosing

    Ok, after reading this article I'm sold. This article does a great job of explaining exactly what is going on so far as what is known. I ordered ZEOfood 7, ZEObak and ZEOstart 2. Hopefully its not as complicated as it sounds with the dosing schedule. If I had a bigger tank I would use a...

    Aeolidiella Stephanieae for Aiptasia control

    I first thought of you when I saw this. If flow is an issue for these guys just lower the flow for a few weeks while they work their magic. However, I bet your wrasses will eat them before thats an issue. Anyway, let me know if you try it and how it works out.

    Whats Going On Everyone?

    Thats the exact same setup my friend has. It has worked out really well, also he is taking it slow and not over stocking. 55g tank, eshopps HOB skimmer, heater, a couple of koralia pumps, still working on the lights. Its a nice setup and very easy to maintain.

    Whats Going On Everyone?

    I vote for 20g with 10g sump and skimmer. Nothing fancy, just a good starter tank. I tell you as someone without a sump, GET A SUMP, it makes things so much easier. Also stay away from canister filters, big mess and nutrient traps. Your total water volume will be less than 30g as the 10g...

    Aeolidiella Stephanieae for Aiptasia control

    I just read in the latest digital issue of Coral Magazine about tank bred Berghia and how they are great Aiptasia controllers. Has anyone used these and why are they not more popular? Seem better than copperband butterflies and peppermint shrimp. You can order them online from an...

    Whats Going On Everyone?

    I have a "nano" tank and don't consider it harder to manage than a larger tank. In fact I think its easier, smaller water changes, smaller amounts of dosing and tweaking. Once its setup and you find the right levels its easy to maintain. Of course I want a larger tank, doesn't everyone? The...

    Cable modems and Comcast

    I have a fortinet 60wifi router, its overkill for a home setup but if anyone is interested let me know. $200 or trade? Its about 6 years old but they still release firmware updates and it has way more features than standard SOHO equipment. Great for a small server room. Original price was $900...

    You should ask Freud if your flame has a scat fetish.
