    Parameters out of wack and tank is failing

    What I do is use two identical containers ( #1 & #2) for the water change and a third (#3) container for the freshly mixed salt water that I make the night before. Use bucket #1 for “waste water” that you’ll siphon out. Put another bucket (#2) next to it on the floor and fill it with the new...

    How to Quarantine

    ...pages out of 105... My brain hurts. So much good information... Thank you! Question: Can the observation tank, that the fish go into after Day #14 (Tank #2), have sand and rock? Inverts? The wife is asking, hoping I don't make her keep TWO sterile "looking" tanks in the entryway. :)

Then now we have a bigger tank (Tank #2) which we added all the fishes but no coral in it. The bigger tank was set up 2 weeks ago. Since there are no fishes in Tank #1, it’s full of Munnid...

    I think you just go to a new Stream Group (e.g. #2) and set the Return Pump for 50% then assign it to the proper outlet controlled by the Low Sump Level.

    Neptune Apex newb question

    ...#1) I have read the salinity probe is sometime not accurate. How do the other probes fair? Temperature, PH and ORP? Are these readings accurate? #2) I read the apex can monitor power of devices (watts, etc) to see if a device fails (?). Is this true? Does the device have to be “apex...

    What type of water barrel to use

    Hello, I have the chance to buy 4 - 55 gallon white plastic (recycling symbol #2) barrels for about $100. The user stored dry corn in them for a corn burner he had. Would these be safe to put RODI water in the? Thx, Steve

    Two sump design for space limited stand

    I'm following this 2 sump design (option #2). I don't know my PVC piping options very well. Instead of a bulkhead on each tank with a union and PVC pipe, can I do some sort of flexible PVC between the 2? I'm concern about cracking the glass if I bump it or something in the small space. Not...
