...your comments. Note that I'm using two return pumps in parallel. Two Mag 7 pumps should provide sufficient flow to two main tanks, refugium #2, and misc components such as a carbon/GFO reactor. I've had these two pumps for years and didn't want to spend more $ for one larger pump. Also...
Hey guys, I appreciate all the attention on this post. The pics below is what I have left, price is $150 shipped to #1 and #2, and #250 shipped for #4. Let me know if any questions, thank you all!
You can try #2, but I am also in the same boat as you, new tank upgrade will go in the same spot as my current tank. I have been looking into setting up a 40b drilled with a sump, keeping it cheap as it is a temp tank, and set it up for several months before transferring everything that I want...
...ARE VERY CONSITANT on Results!!!
** I guess Consistanty is most imporant, within reason **
I'm want to try the More Accurate Method #2, but not so easy to get LabChem LC242001 Sodium Hydroxide Solution, 0.01N (0.01M) right now.
Wondering if there is another Option.
I have an Unopened...
...and the reason for your problems. I was shocked when I saw products to dose nitrate and phosphate.
Heavy feeding - This kind of stems from #1 and #2, with the notion of heavy in, heavy out. I recall being very finicky with feeding to prevent over feeding and excess nutrients.
What about...
...Hanna test first. One tiny finger smudge on the cuvette can through you way off.
Actually, tell me this: When you put the reagent into cuvette #2, did it turn a shade of blue? If not relax. Let the corals eat it. If it did turn blue, be SUPER careful with LC, It works too well for most...
...While I love the Essentials Pro, for me at least it's become very expensive to use. I dilute 4 to 1 and my daily use of #1 is 720 ml and for #2, it is 840 ml so I go thru 10 liters of each pretty quickly and at 208.00 plus tax it's a bit pricey. When I first set up the tank and bought all of...
...when it was needed a few weeks back when I was in Vegas and CO2 went out - I found out from Chad (who came to bail me out) that it was actually #2, not 3a, and the tube was clogged. But, having something like this for standby is super helpful as it kept my tank from crashing until i could get...

If the answer is #2, then you’ll just need a DI cartridge and you’ll be all set, though adding a triple TDS meter would be immensely helpful to allow you to measure your source water, post RO membrane...
...some of the base tissue when trying to remove it.
Please someone that has seen this help advise what to do. My search came up empty on #2, and I only found hints on #1, which was to lower flow or its bacterial. Feels like the issues are slow so i have time to potentially make some...
...misreads, we don’t use them.
if ammonia is being oxidized then nitrate is being produced, even if a cheap test can’t indicate it. From post #2, once you show the dosed ammonia test, if it holds overnite without going down it means you aren’t ready. If it goes down, you are. Really clear cut...
Plumbing weekend -- again!
Pump 1 which has the frag tank, refugium tank, and the longest piping run to the display is all set. No leaks!
Pump 2 (which is the top blue horizontal piping that flows to the near side of the display tank didn't get glued and I need to rethink my tee fitting, but...
...super glue/accelerator to help reinforce it. If it works well, then I'll make a new housing and put something in the tank, against the glass to support it when drilling.
And point #2, there's no place where the aluminum touches water, so I'm not really concerned about in polluting the main...
[updated Feb 17, 2020 to include data from an additional tank]
One of the most common questions I get is "If there's something I don't like about my aquarium's microbiome, what can I do about it?" In this thread I'll describe my experience with this question on my own home tanks.
The punchline...

Hi Sami;
you're basing your PO4 argument on (1.) experience running a scrubber for 7 months, a scrubber with sub-optimal lighting. I built my first scrubber in 1995, and my present tank has run a modern downflow scrubber, with lighting intensity & spectrum tuned to the unit, for near 4 years...
