Have you tried snipping the tips off, maybe 1/4” into the flesh? This may remove the cause of the stn and allow it to heal. This has worked for me 70% of the time when I have stn and 50% for rtn.

I’ve no idea. Thought it would be like plugging in a float sensor. Thanks for the info, I’ll do some reading.

Also volunteering is a great way to meet other members. At least that worked for me.

Maybe use ceramic magnets? Not as strong as neodymium but supposedly rustproof.

Yes, I’m hoping to use it on holding container. In searching @ReyDeFarts suggestion of ultrasonic, I found waterproof ultrasonic distance measurement sensor. Maybe use this? Sonic distance sensor

anyone have experience with these external liquid level sensors? they don't seem to be optical, but i could be wrong. i'm looking for an externaly mounted liquid level sensor with an opaque container...

I’m interested as well since they aren't affected by water level and can be used externally.

Think it was tin’s, also known as coral exotic in Marin county.

If you want more ulitarian coral for nutrient uptake, I’d suggest any macro algae.

Tank survived my 3 month (nov-feb) absence with my sisters feeding and filling the ato reservoir. A buddy did 30% water change one and two month after I left. I didn’t think to take a before and after trip FTS. Lost a few frags that got knocked off and there was a bryopsis outbreak. Tested 50...

Condolences, I lost my culture. Totally forgot about it and it dried out.

What level sensor is that on the skimmate container? I’m looking for an external level sensor.

thanks again @TheLostReefs . how's everyone's cultures doing?

Adjust skimmer to skim dryer, since it’s better to underskim than over and have a flood.

Thanks. Went 1 out of 3. Which is better than my normal self builds.

besides the controller, to me it seems the only major difference is the co2 reactor with float or optical sensor to monitor amount of co2. i'm going to try to diy this by adding a float sensor, bio balls to a reactor and adding that to a 2 chamber carx.

His green zoas are probably king Midas zoas. They yellow up in other tanks but are greenish in his.

welcome to you and your son

Good to know and Thx for sharing. I’m thinking of diy’ing my own deltec style automatic carx and wondering if it’s worth it.

Maybe find someone willing to peel/scrape off the zoas or swap rocks. But if you value the rock more than the zoas, maybe do a pest tank with sundial snails, zoa spiders and zoa nudibranchs.
