What body do you have? If its a crop one 17-55 IS 2.8 is a great lens. Thats what I use day to day.

yes those are generic DF&S coupons

Pros and Cons of one salt vs another will be a religious battle that will long outlast all of us. :)

Just ordered another pallet :) Use coupon code 3658588 for $10 off any order over $100.

Good to hear things are doing ok and I am glad I could help. -Chris

Down to 8 buckets left :( starting to look for a deal on another pallet of Reef Crystals. Between the PG&E bill and Salt this hobby is to damn expensive.

Good luck. I emailed you my cell # incase things get worse. I also have atleast 600g of fresh made warm salt water ready in my water change tank if you need water.

Roc I have a 150g or 300g rubbermaid stock tank you are more than welcome to borrow. PM or email me and we can sync up. Not sure where you are located but I am over in San Ramon. -Chris

acrylic. I would not want a tank that large made out of glass due to earthquake concerns

You have to run GFO in a fluidized reactor otherwise it will turn into a brick in a week or two. I really like the Precision Marine reactors. They have a thick PVC top that is actually a heavy twist lock to screw onto the top of the reactor. All the other ones use a bunch of thumb screws or...

The best bang for the buck is the BRS (Bulk Reef Supply) pellet GFO. The HC stuff is great if you don't have a ton of Po4 being put into your water or you don't have that much water. Even though it can hold about 2x more Po4 compared to the pellet GFO, it costs more than 2x the price. The...

Lyn sorry to hear about the heater. If you want to I can make room in my QT tank if you want to bring Splash over. It might be more stress to move her but its your call. Let me know.

My large system uses a 1000w and a 500w as my primary heaters on a redundant ranco controller and then I have a second identical setup as a backup on a separate GFCI circuit. Tomorrow I am going to go pickup a tankless water heater so I can build a setup to heat my tank with natural gas. At...

I tried attaching a heavy string / small rope to it but since I keep it in my tank all the time my clown trigger keeps eating through it :(

Xinumaster, what thickness are you using that on? I found the F6 to be pretty damn strong even on my 1" thick tank.

Mike, Unfortunately I don't think they make either the Magnavore 8 or 10 that floats. I have a 6ER that does float that I use on a smaller tank of mine but it is no where near powerful enough for 1" thick acrylic. Thanks Chris

I have been using a Magnavore 10 for my 600g (1" thick acrylic) tank for years. It does an ok job but I have two problems with it. One is my tank is viewable from 3 sides so in order to move it from one side to the next I have to get my arm into the tank to do that. The problem is my clown...

Yah I need to get mine clean also. The SPS tank stays relatively clean but the 600g FOWLR that's another story. Those guys are pigs and the algae build-up shows it. I just finally got installed a large PO4 reactor so that has helped and I just finished cycling a large DIY Sulfur Denitrator so...

Hi all, My name is Chris and I have lived in San Ramon my entire life. I work in technology (networking) down in the south bay. I have been into salt water tanks now for 7 years. I started out with a custom in wall 200g acrylic tank that was stocked with some softies and aggressive fish...

Yah its my fuge. A friend of mine tore down his tank a few years back and I tossed all the LR in my fuge. Now I just need to move some to my sump so I can actually grow some macro in the fuge :)
