Finally got the calcium reactor dialed in. I've never had so much trouble dialogue no in the Geo I had before this Vertex one. Here are some pics from tonight.

Well disaster struck already. Gfi blew out. Luckily I had a friend go over and figured it out. He got the tank up and running again.

What is your maintenance schedule?currently

It's not that bad. Just clean the glass once or twice a week. But I do run zeovit and that's a daily thing. I showed my wife how to feed the tank and how to shake the reactor.

As far as water changes go, I rarely do them.

Finally back home. The damage was minimal but man where there problems with the tank. Thanks to [MENTION=88]Nick[/MENTION]shades and Randy (Christygirl) for coming to the rescue.

The first call I got was that the lights were not coming on and I lost connectivity through fusion so I couldn't check if anything was on. Nick when to the house to see what was going on and it turned out that one of the CFI outlet blew out. He set things back up and ran a power strip to the tank. A couple days later I get a call in the morning from my wife saying that the carpet was wet, there's lots of water dripping from the tank, and smoke was coming out of the power strip. I told her to pull the power strip and to see if she can tell where the water was coming from. My mind automatically when to "the tank cracked". She couldn't find where the water came from. Later that day Randy when to the house and found that the skimmer overflowed and spewed water everywhere. That's where the water came from and it needed up wetting the power strip. He got everything going again added salt to the tank because the ATO kept on adding water that the skimmer threw out. He also dialed In The skimmer. And hour after he left my wife called me saying that the skimmer is overflowing again so I killed it through fusion. My only loss so far is a baby inferno. 2 of the 3 decided to take a walk and I haven't seen the third yet. The other thing is that I got a cyano outbreak.

Here are some pics before I did anything

Ok so after I shook the reactor and dosed the zeovit stuff, the cyano started dyeing off right away. Let's see how long it takes for it to fully go away.

These pics are after dosing.

Don't cut that JF Flame, let it grow out. I have acquired a frag from Vu back on 4th of July.
