    Anyone using the AutoAqua Smart ATO Micro?

    I use one, have used it over a year now -- It's very good, very accurate, no issues with it. The little 'check valve' isn't a valve, it's just a piece of plastic with a hole in it, the moment water isn't being pushed through the hose by the pump it sucks in air and stops the syphon. Every once...

    Anyone else hanging their T5 fixture at an angle?

    I am! I do it for a few reasons. First, it lets me not get blasted in the eyes like Spark. That's not the original reason i did it, but that was the most immediate impact. Second, my lights are a little toward the front end of my light tree and angling it back lets everything in my top back...

    Dump the egg crate or acrylic/magnet combo and combine filter and frag rack

    People on RC have registered complaints about it. The fact that it leeches heavy metal is the only reason I feel is necessary to avoid it. Randy Holmes on aluminum toxicity concentrations Randy Holmes-Farley testing -- Aluminum testing based on average leeched from Marine Pure, response at...

    Dump the egg crate or acrylic/magnet combo and combine filter and frag rack

    Marinepure leeches crazy amounts of Aluminum as it degrades. I would absolutely stop using marinepure if I were you, triton tests confirm insane amounts of Aluminum in systems running Marine Pure.

    Automatic DIY Skimmate Container On The Cheap!

    Very cool! I have an OT question about your skimmate cup drain line -- What size is the tubing? I too have a Vertex 130i but my skimmate drain is like 2.5" long at best.. What size / where to get a longer one?

    The Garden -- 45g Cube

    Good encrusting once I started dosing kn03. I see lots of putty and glue to stop the growth wars in the future..

    Why Do My Wrasses Love Nori So Much?!

    My Melanurus LOVES when I don't scrape the glass for awhile.. I like to let one of my sides grow algae for about a week or so to ensure the pods and snails have plenty to munch on.. Well, when it comes time to clean my wrasse follows the algae scraper and eats up mouth fulls of algae/pods. I'm...

    Acro crabs -- Who chooses to use / keep them with their SPS?

    I'm sitting here watching my corals and honestly, I can't wait until they're big enough to add a couple of these guys. There's some real striking looking acro crabs out there too. I have a feeling the way my Melanurus eyes every nook and cranny that she'd rip one of these little crabs apart though.

    Tree house horror colony

    I'd rather it be split up at cost for members who've shown interest here. When i get killer deals from members I know I can turn around and sell it for 25-50% more than I paid, but that's sort of a dick move. The second picture shows at least 40 polyps. $650/40 = $16.25pp. Conversely, 40x30 =...
