That’s because it’s freshwater. Read his post about the fish. Cory’s don’t live in saltwater. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Glass hydrometers usually come calibrated to a set temperature, so you’ll have to adjust based on your current temp. The Tropic Marin hydrometer is pretty damn good and reliable. Refractometers on the other hand are usually way off if not of a certain quality and type. Most are made for a brine...

I would just do kalkwasser and all for reef or some 2 part. Also, Luca from Quanta Lights is coming out with a new LED fixture, which should be promising. I love the dimensions, as I have a 36x36x16 and love it. I also would just do a simple glass sump with maybe a baffle or two. I think 99% of...

Also, if you acclimate them yourself, then they are a true canary in the coal mine and will let you know if you have any diseases or parasites in your system, as they won't have any immunity to saltwater pathogens, etc. But, if you get them fully acclimated, they will have likely built up...

If so, then get some low light plants and let them do the job/work.

Sounds like freshwater, right?

I would love to get a frag of pink lemonade, but I may not be around until Sunday?

I appreciate it, but looking for dry. It’s for my son’s tank, which I’ll give him some of my sand to inoculate it. I’m having Elliot from Golden State Corals order me some, so I should be good. I guess everyone uses Fiji pink or the black stuff now? I like Fiji pink for mixed or medium flow...

I think they’re awesome looking corals and their growth form is pretty cool, especially if they get big. Just give it some room and enjoy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Since there are multiple species and genus that get the common name favia, their sweepers or mesenterial filaments can and will cause damage to neighbors and vary in size, length, etc. Joker favia for instance will have sweepers just as long as galaxea (6"or more). So placement with flow in mind...

Nice! John has a great selection of clams, I picked up two croceas last year from him. Steve is a cool guy and I always make it a point to chat with him when I can. Give those favia some room, those sweepers get long.

Thanks! I have plenty of Fiji pink I could use, but looking specifically for special grade. Great deal though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looking for 20lbs of special grade sand, dry and unused preferred. I tried all of the LFS in the valley (SFV) and no one has any currently.

Yeah, it's like having an Oregon blue tort under heavy blues, what's the point? I'm sure there's a whole generation of reefers who have never seen corals under true 6500k lighting. A lot of soft (and other) corals look amazing under "daylight".

Sarcophyton elegans doesn't do well when fragged, they never have. Just buy complete corals and you'll be fine. The only way to get frags is from natural division/budding, otherwise, they have a really poor track record being fragged. Also, these are shallow water species that look amazing under...

As a general note, cyano does not care what your nutrient levels are, it will exist at all levels. It's about out competing it with other life forms/bacteria. If it has a food source, it will thrive. I've been snorkeling on reefs where it's pristine and right next to a huge colony of acropora is...

Manual removal and follow up with DIY coral snow. You can also add a little microbacter7 to the coral snow. Here's the recipe.

What’s high and are you experiencing any issues with the current levels? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can give some berghia a good home for a couple of months and return them to you, plus extra when they are finished with their buffet? ;)

A couple of Tunze Stream 3's would do the job. Depending on your rock work, you could place them lower behind the rock?
