Radions Gen 4 best Spectrum to date and easily adjustable. I have all my Systems on Radion's now and the corals are looking great and growing. The transition from T5 Led Hybrid did make some corals unhappy and I found very quickly that my new Radions needed to be dialed way back. I have mine 8"...

This hobby is not easy and for new reefers message boards are where we go to figure out what we are doing wrong. The problem is that everyones opinions do not equal results so who do you believe? I have gone in many wrong directions and have spent a ton on things that do not work well or take a...

I have run Ozone 24/7 on my system since startup. I run a reactor and carbon on exported water and air. I have a fish room in garage, so was not to worried about health issues. I change Carbon every 6 months and the water looks like the fish are floating in air. I think if implemented correctly...

I have 2 4" Spongodes frags for $40 each, one 6" Showpiece Spongodes $60. I also have 10" Spiraling Red Cap for $25, it will come with a bucket! Need room in frag tank. I will try and get some pictures tonight, but I have a piece of Tonga branch with WWC Grafted Cap, and Sunburst Grafted Cap I...

The members only Field Trip this Saturday at 10am is going to be off the hook and for those of you looking for some special new coral for the tank would be foolish to miss. I will be there handing out membership cards and will be able to sign you up for the club at 930am for those that have not...

Radions, just made the switch about 6 weeks back on the 400. Had them in acclimation mode and still had to cut them back to 35%.

I have a Nikon Camera and a 60 and 105 Macro lens and I still cannot figure out how to take a picture, stupid camera sits in the bag. Any way to get a lesson in Cypress and show me how to shoot my tank with my camera? I have some nice frags or cash:)

7 to 9 inches is pretty big difference, this is where my girlfriend would ask for a Tape measure! Or did you mean Centimeters:)

I bid $500:)

Jump it and hope you do not let the smoke out, very hard to get the smoke back in a circuit board:)

I do like them as the HEI optics of the Gen 4 get better spread, but at a cost of the pucks hanging down below the fixture. When you look at the tank the brightness of the HEI optics draws in your eyes from the sides and dilates your eyes when you do glance at them. The Diffuser makes this...

Double check your Mag, I have found some soft corals act funny in my tank when I get higher than 1500, maxed out on Red Sea. Also even though you have Optics you can still have Hot Spots, par meter the spots where shrooms are loosing color? I would also turn down reds, greens, and whites even...

What does Vibrant do for Cyano, Lazy and I want your take? I have a couple areas that crop up worse when my GFO is old that would like to get rid of!

This thing called life sometimes pulls us in different directions, and it can get very busy. I find myself lately with less time to surf the net and while I do not post often I do search this site and RC at least 3 times a week and help where I can. With that said sometimes I do not bother...

Small undersized units are a waste and do very little for Saltwater, this is why most say UV does nothing for a reef tank. For a Good Read look up Emperor Aquatics, just bought out by Pentair. Sold by BRS and they rate there units for Saltwater pathogens. Flow and Contact time is very important...

High energy users look into switching your plan to Time of Use through Edison, my Electric bill went down $200 per month average, There is a calculator online to see if it works for you, if you use over 700kw a month it will be less. You can also tune your system to use more energy at night when...

30 pages and still not wet, come on!

Scrapers sometimes have too wide a blade when it is really bad, a razor blade and some patience works when mine gets neglected. LARS is tough on tanks! Lazy A$$ Reefer Syndrome:)

Snail, do you have any large turbo snails???

Sorry you are having a problem, it would be nice to know what extras show up on a Triton or ICP test. That way we would know if we saw high ???? To check our Vortechs. Salt water is a harsh environment, I have had Tunze magnets crack, ecotech mp10 crack, and even had a flipper housing crack and...
