+1 on checking phosphates. When checking for phosphates I would check your tank water, your clean saltwater you use for water changes along with your top off fresh water. I'm not sure where you are coming in form but it's been a really hot week here. Do you have your tank running on a chiller...

I don't have any personal experience with the "green" but from what I have heard is that they become a problem when they get older and bigger. I would measure the costs against the gains dude. There are other inexpensive reef safe options for brittles, though I understand you already have this...

Hey Jesse, There is some really good info on green brittle stars here and also more on the that link here with opinions from the great Albert Thiel. I'm sure the mods will delete it though, good info isn't king here anymore...

This might be helpfull! Good luck!:becky:

Are you sure you want to buy one of those Jesse? I have heard nothing but bad things about them.

Give it a few days to completely dry before powering it on. There is a good chance nothing got shorted. There is lots of places water can hide the blow drier isn't getting to. Good luck, Nick

Hey sell orange plastic rods at home depot that work great for this. They are called reflective staffs. They have a reflective sticker on them, I just pulled it off. They are used as place markers. Cheap and much stronger then acrylic. Good luck!:yo: Nick

Hey Steve! Can you explain this some more? Do mean in front as in lower (vertically, closer to the water) then the T5's or do you mean (horizontal, as in in-line) with the T5's Thanks!:becky:

I just searched for 10 minutes... I could have bet money we hand a sponsor here that was selling one that was 4". He had been posting picks and bumping for a while now. I thought the shop was in Glendora but the only sponsor I know of in Glendora is 'Ocean Marine Sales' and I don't see it in...

I have retrofit end-caps, not sure they have the water-proof screw caps but will work without them. I can check if you're interested. Retrofit end-caps are probably too big for a fixture though. You should think about adding your fixture 'make and model' dude. They can differ in sizes. Free if...

Looking into them myself... Looks like "Eliminator Lighting Controllers" are getting better reviews.

Payment sent, thank you Kyle!

Hmmm not sure but just to double check... Do you have plenty of live rock and hiding places? These guys like hiding places. Also are you sure the mandarin is getting enough food? Again these guys usually like live food like pods, live brine shrimp, and live black worms. If it's not getting...

Have you added any bacteria during the cycle,? If not just go to your LFS and ask for bacteria that will help cycle your tank, they sell it in a bottle and pouch. Also, as Adrock said a water change would be good to bring it down, 15%-25%. I would say you are right on track.

bow-chicka-bow-wow!

Kim is legit. You can guy with confidence. I have had good dealings in the past.

lol! Is that a new So Cal reef forum?!

Ron you missed out on the good old days when SCR members were not allowed to haze or argue with the sponsors about pricing...

PM sent.

I'm pretty sure I have a new 1/2" if you want it. I know it's not worth the drive but PM me if you want to come get it. 91732 Good luck!
