    The web site works good in safari or chrome on iOS without the app. Just sayin.... if you need to use it this way. :)

    hair alge

    Did they tell you what they died from? More likely that the died from what I said rather than what you supposed. Many talented hobbyists for many decades will tell you the same thing. Even if you are the exception, probably not a good idea to recommend it to others.

    hair alge

    Trochus are going to be the first to die if you have to raise you nitrate level, or just keep it high. They don't often do well with temps over 78 degrees. They are more sensitive. They do a LOT of work when you can keep them happy. They are from the pacific and not available at...

    Better than average Reef Crystals deal

    I use a 10ml syringe to get the muriatic out, probably from an old Salifert test kit. I tip the jug to the side until the syringe can get to the liquid. I hold my breath for the few seconds and walk away before I breathe again. The stuff can be nasty, but it is not death in a bottle or...

    Ro vat tds - clean or replace?

    I used the same brute for over a decade and even while there was no salt in there, I would get TDS around 5-10 even though if you caught the RODI coming out of the unit, it was always 0-1. For me, this is just the cost of doing business? :) I would not worry about RODI reservoir values too...

    I imagine that you are full, but if you are open to trade, I have lots of valuable and rare SPS.

    Looking for a New Light

    What are you going to keep? It matters. If you want a mixed reef, then this is not a huge deal and nearly all lights can get this done where every owner will tell you that what they use is the best ever. If you want to focus on trickier corals, acropora and other harder things, then not all...
