    Reef Nutrition Apex Pods

    I have seen them for sale in shops dead or mostly so. They should be swimming around wildly. If lid was kept on or they were in the fridge, they are likely dead. They are very hardy though, so I would dump them into a bowl of SW at room temp and see what happens. If you have a sieve, maybe get...

    :mad: Favia looked fine on Friday. So that orange Lobo (?) stung it, I guess. Previous post shows how close it was. We moved it to the side as pictured here. Not sure anything would eat Favia. That Lobo was a tiny orange and green frag in 2016 and it has lived through some tank ordeals. I...

    Derek's 130gal (525xl)

    NICE! Question: what kind of swell is there up at the top of the tank? How much does the water height change at the top edge? I have never tried anything interesting with flow and have always had dead spots, I think. Also have always been worried about stress on tank from back and forth motion...

    Joe's Reef Journey

    Are your layers connected or will you add a separate layer once the top one is grown over? A couple students asked if they could stack frag discs "like a fancy cake" with the base getting larger at the bottom of the stack, but most of our discs are thin. Interested to follow your progress!

    NiMH Battery Question

    Thanks. Been a problem for a few years bc Lightspeed stopped making them and used an alternate source but now offer nothing. I waited months a year or so ago on backorder, then the battery I got from CDW-G stopped holding charge (and no longer carried) or it's something wrong in my equipment. I...

    NiMH Battery Question

    Unrelated to reefing, but I need a replacement audio system microphone NiMH battery - NH2A27. Specs: 1.4 or 1.5V, 2700 mAH, 0.57"x1.99"/14.5x50.5mm. (~AA size) An online blog said it could use "any NiMH rechargeable battery but you’ll need to remove the branding wrapper off the battery." Do not...

    Green Zoas in Pleasant Hill Near Concord

    Green zoas in Pleasant Hill need a home. It is probably on your way to Concord/Clayton if you are heading out that way Thursday or Friday. Might be able to get a better pic Thurs.

    Pseudoscience and reefing: why so much bad information (semi rant)

    What we have is nuisance algae (in the eye of the beholder) of all types in one tank as well as an overrun of cyano and foraminiferans in another tank. I have to say when school started and students fed tanks much more food at one time than I did over summer, algae took off. Also, I am on Team...

    Kinetic ELOS 120XL

    There's clearance for tubing and the clamps on both hose barbs in that screw area? That right one also looks right against the side with a hole in it, too. Annoyance ahead.

    Best under $20 item you've ever bought for Reefing

    Just got this based on your suggestion. I took one for a quick spin this afternoon and will be putting them into student use next week! Outstanding for target feeding. I thought it would be bulky, but nope. Fed everyone in 20” deep tank without getting wet, good control, and no spilling out on...

    Most of my pics are not of great looking tanks, but our 105g is showing its stability. Here are some of my favorite corals in it. Quite a few came from past swaps! . . .

    RODI problems

    Also, did you let water run thru the new resin to rinse/flush it?

    RODI problems

    Do you have an extra refillable canister that you could try to be sure there's not a problem there?

    RODI problems

    Was the resin damp and stinky? Once I used some I thought I had sealed up well but it was dry, lacked that smell, and did not work.
