I just read about lawsuits against them.. it was definitely not 'designed' to do that, but seems like what they have been doing.. hopefully they did mend their ways after the lawsuit.. thanks for sharing

I am pretty sure that’s not how it works :) It’s a crowd sourced extension, if there is a code that works for you, you can choose to share it through the extension with everyone in the community, similar to this post :) it won’t steal referrals from websites unless someone allowed it to re-use...

Thanks @tribbitt .. I also recommend installing honey extension for chrome browser.. I always got at least $10 and upto 10% off for all my BRS orders during the Thanksgiving week.. the extension automatically applies codes for you at the checkout

@sonne please let me know if you will be available in next couple of hours, I got some work in the same area

I can pickup today, may use a few things, will put rest of it on the donations table at the next swap

Yep, that was a stupid move on my part, with just target salinity in my head.. didnt think through what all could go wrong, and didnt think about a power failure at all until now when you mentioned that.. OMG! I use Reef Octopus 200 skimmer and was plumbed at 8 inch water depth initially during...

No, I just added some more water to reach the desired salinity but never took out the excess water later once the salinity was reached, until yesterday.. I didn’t see an increase in salinity due to evaporation of excess water in a week’s time, though theoretically it should have had some effect...

Can skimmer cause the salinity to rise? :eek: Yes I am aware that it has to be consistently at 1.009, though different forums say 1.008-1.010 is OK for ich and flukes (some actually claim 1.013 maybe ok too), but not taking the risk and checking it daily ensuring its at 1.009.. But can you...

Yes, the system does have ATO.. but when I was replacing salt water with RODI water, I added about 5-10 extra gallons of water in the sump, just to bring the salinity to where I wanted it to be - 1.009.. didnt realize that skimmer functioning is dependent on the water level in the sump which I...

Hypo (Day 10): All fish look a happy bunch after I moved the convict to the sump, will probably get in line for BAR's acclimation box soon as suggested above when I try to add this guy back to the tank in some time from now.. Cardinal still has a cloudy eye and a big spot (like a missing...

all the fish are already in! :D only this guy is in the sump I am trying hypo in my DT, did I miss that important detail in the journal haha

thank you all, good to know this is common! How long shall I keep him in the sump? I know there are no guarantees if he will behave after adding him back, but I love this health convict and would like to give him a 2nd chance, specially coz he was doing pretty well during his 1st 50 days with...

thanks @Turkeysammich .. I just wanted to create this journal so that I can get advice from all the experienced folks here and also could go back to it in case things go south in next month or so of hypo! Who knows, 5 years down the line someone new to this forum looks at this journal and...

Do you think changing the lighting schedule might have triggered this? nothing else changed.. well, I guess Hypo in itself is a big change for the fish which might have triggered this as well. Didnt move aqua-scape, add/remove any fish recently (until today when trying to catch the convict!)

Hypo (Day 8): All fish look ok, very few spots still seen on the clown and I just noticed one other cardinal has 1 cloudy eye.. usually infection is in both eyes, so I am unsure if its due to an injury or flukes/ich.. Will wait and watch.. In last couple of days I saw a bump in Ammonia...

Thanks @Coral reefer .. with due respect, I hope you are wrong this time :cool:

Thanks @Coral reefer for your reflection on this method.. Just wondering when you say that, is it coz of 1st hand experience doing this, 2nd hand experience hearing about someone else doing this OR just statistical guess? Also, do you believe going fallow for 72 days is the only way to get rid...

Hypo (Day 6): Happy thanksgiving y'all! Blue tang looks really good today, swimming like old days before it caught ich, eating everything from water column, eye issue seems to be resolved as well.. I still see a very few spots on Clowns and some scratching from blenny and convict.. White spots...

Hypo (Day 4): Clowns look much better, with lesser white spots than yesterday.. Blue tang finally coming out more in the open, still struggling to eat from the water column, right eye has a larger layer of mucus, as I could see today when it came out in the open, which might be impacting its...

I see 2 of those in the pic, maybe cleaner or some other sort of wrasses
