    Tank Parameters all over the place

    Seriously!!! trying to get there would only get you dinos when you bottom out. Long as I'm at .2 or under I'm happy in the sps tank. Other tanks under 1.0 I'm content. I don't even try to play chase the numbers to get into single digits nor would I recommend it. Great if you can, but its...

    Sometimes it make take a few water changes to get them to leaching completely. You've been at this longer than me so I expect this you already know. It's thing where patience up front can save headaches in the future.

That tank is fully mature to the point some items he has would be considered ancient. In addtion to his experience in the hobby not easily rivaled by...

    If you order from Amazon if it doesn't work you can swap it. I recommend on stronger than you need. You should look to only need to run it 40-60%. No expert just me thoughts with wave makers in general. Makes them last longer less harsh wear than running one at max 24/7. It also give you room...

    Dealing with lyngbya

    Day 6 of Azithromycin in nem tank. Only used half the dose so it's effect is within expectations. Main tank at full dose took 4 days. Maybe half dose will take 8??. Compared to the pics above shared Monday. It's clearly very thin, it's changed to a higher color. Overall it seems like it's...

    That's so awesome eager to see it all grown out. Sad but the memorial wall is a interesting way to embrace the lost fish. You can feel free to invite some of the club members to come check out the frag swap if any of them have tanks or they are considering it. I don't know if a swap could be...

    Maybe get a small measuring spoon or like a medicine cup. Not saying weigh things. But use a line with a sharpie so you feeding the roughly the same amount. Also best to feed same number of times a day. This is just so when your testing one day verse next day and see differences it's not...

    It's down @derek_SR explained it to me. Lanthanum is better when slowly dispersed over multiple doses. Say you using 2 mil. Better to do many small doses of it than all at once. A doser ensures it's dosed precisely daily at x time and without fail. Your saying your numbers have slightly...

    Manual dosing it won't have the intended effect same as gfo not in a reactor. Seriously consider doing one in the proper meaning efficent way. Before thinking they aren't working. You have the needed tools proven to work by many people but they are only efficient used correctly. Like hitting...

    Tank Parameters all over the place

    How are you dosing this? Dosing pump or by hand? You definitely want a dosing pump so dose can be spilt up into multiple doses in a single day. Verse one dose done at same time. Possibly skimmed out before having it's full effect. When I was researching it I saw smaller doses are more...

    Dealing with lyngbya

    So happy to report in the 210gallon tank. This stuff appears 100% gone. Even from the wave makers. I did mention doing half of recommended dose in the nem tank. So far it seems thinner but very much still present. The nems have shrunken considerable. They were over 3-4 inches. Some over 7...
