    Manufacturer that sells 60”Lx24”Wx20”H? Aqua Japan feedback?

    5'6" here with a 26" tall tank. While it's not always fun reaching down, I think the height is visually worth it. I have a variety of long tools and tongs to help with stuff at the bottom and my dining table bench is near the tank so not a hassle to use. Heck, I want a 36" tall tank if I were...

    "Ultra Committee" for 6/22 Swap

    Love it. What's considered bonus/ultra is constantly changing and a comprehensive list of all the ultra-splice-bouncing-holy grail-rainbow corals is nearly impossible so this will help. I can help with the grading if there's a need.

    DBTC: Sprung's Burning Bush

    Did anyone get this alage to attach to a rock or is it forever loose and floating around? I've even tried wrapping it with mesh netting around a rock. Eventually it grows big and buoyant enough that it rips itself off and floats around.

    What food does everyone put in their Avast Plank?

    For anyone considering one, sign up for email notifications for when factory seconds become available and save $43. These are new and mine is nearly flawless other than a visible seam from the 3d printing. I was able to get one within a month of signing up for notifications and there was only...

    What food does everyone put in their Avast Plank?

    Are you getting any issues with mixing pellets and flakes? Where the different feeds separate during the drum rotating process and eventually the heavier stuff goes to the bottom? I get the same issue @JVU mentioned with freeze dried brine shrimp and pellets. Maybe it's more prone with certain...

    Tom’s Back with a Waterbox AIO 35.2

    Same experience here even in a 7ft tank, it was a constant power struggle. Had an old purple established and introduced a pair of helfrich and an orange. The purple was more aggressive and the helfrich pair stuck together being chased. The orange stayed in his upper corner. Then one of the...

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    I had aspirations of having a tank with bommis/isolated island structures with lot of white pristine sand. Japanese style. Then I wanted space for more coral so i added another rock, then another rock, then another, and then most of my sand was covered -_- I hope u can resist the temptation more...

    Hydros Maven delayed

    KH Guardian takes it a step further. If you use non-genuine reagent, it bricks your machine and you have to send it back to the company to have it unlocked. For you safety and to protect the machine from malfunction they say :p No one has fully figured how it knows, but the reagent has a green...

    Dosing Kalk with Kamoer X1 Pro T

    Is kalk your only source of alk and calcium? If you're doing 2-part also you can lower that dosage. If you do set it for 10hrs a day, set it for daytime because that's when alk and calcium gets consumed and not dosing it at night will help stabilize your levels. Option C is add more corals to...

    Green Emerald Crab

    Guess you shouldn't deep fry it to get rid of it. Tried these in Japan, kinda good.

    Green Emerald Crab

    Mithrax Ruber maybe? Related to the emerald crab (mithrax sculptus) and seems to be reef safe

    Popper IM200ext

    Is that the tank from Arizona and did you end up getting the euro bracing repaired? That thing is going to look great when set up! Location, soil type, and age of house probably is a factor. With hilly neighborhoods like yours built on a slope, slab foundations require a lot more work. But yes...

    Testing out my DSLR

    Tiffen 85B filter was recommended when I researching this and has worked well for me. What orange filter are you using? I've tested a couple cheapo ones and they don't turn out good. 10k white balance might be too high if you're using an orange filter too.

    Patrick's 81G - the last dance

    Give it a couple years and you'll have the new Garf Grunge! You might remember Garf from back in the day. Grunge was literally a scoop of rubble, sand, and silt from the bottom of their system (looked like shit tbh) that had been seeded with bacteria from all different wild sources over many...

    Flooring opinions?

    I never heard of waterproof engineering hardwood until now. Looks like the core is a composite material versus traditional plywood in regular engineered hardwood. Aside from the waterproofness, do you expect high traffic that'll subject your flooring to scratches and dings? Like dogs, kids...

    Doser for kalk

    I should have a Coralvue affiliate link that gets commission FYI the tubing size is 3x5mm cut in 77mm lengths. I recommend the beige PharMed kind, not the clear silicone which I had a lot of leaks with. I schedule mine to change every 6 months. If your kalk drip outlet or anywhere along the...

    Doser for kalk

    Been using the Kamoer Pro T to dose 5700ml daily for a couple years now. It's quiet and runs on continuous mode. Every now and then u need to change the tubing, which u can buy and cut in bulk, but it's been reliable otherwise. https://store.coralvue.com/kamoer-x1-pro-t-stepper-pump
