I've always wanted to get into sps more but i don't have the discipline, attention to detail, nor the time to grow designer sps. I dont dose two part nor do i want to install a calcium reactor. I have a mixed tank and i would like to plug in a few sps here and there. Please give me a list of SPS...

Judging by your photos, it looks very much like the strain of dino that i've been battling for about a year now. Just going by my experience, thats most likely dino if:
1. It goes away or decrease when the lights are off but comes back when lights go on.
2. When it gets really bad on your sand...
So I just watched Dr Tim's talk at Macna about bacteria and nitrification () and what caught my interest is when he said he much preferred the old school bio balls over the marine pure blocks. Reason being that the blocks though very porous actually actually stop allowing water to flow through...

Purple and green tip hammer
A teensy weeny frag of garf bonsai
The garf was given to me for free! He priced it at $10 since it was so tiny and he...
Excited about the new site! Btw, I know I haven't been very active here as of late (new baby), but I'm still more than willing to help out with any graphic design need for the site or event promo stuff. Just shoot me a pm, I still take a peek at least once a day.. when my phone is not in my 9...
I'm battling dino in my tank as well... going on 6 months now. At first I tried treating it as cyano with chemiclean.. when that did nothing I was left with two possibilities, either dino or diatoms. I ruled out diatoms because the stuff in my sandbed would sometimes get really thick during the...
Hello Bareefers! I'm back! I hope. Good news is we had our very first baby November 25 last year. Bad news is I've totally neglected my other baby (my tank) since then. I've seen other reefers go on "baby breaks" from the hobby and I've always thought "how hard can it be to maintain your tank...
