Hi All,
First of all, sorry if this is not the correct thread to post this.
Since I start on reefing, I learned that one of the best tools to achieve success in this hobby is by measuring the main elements on our tank water and what better tool for this that through ICP tests. But I noticed...
Fauna Marin has come up with a new expensive coral dip called "cili dip".
If you look at this PDF, the concentrations suggested for different coral species are identical to those suggested by Justin Credabel for Hydrogen peroxide.
You can find his research summarised here.
Frankly, this looks...
Finally its going to happen. After 1,5 year messing around with a freshwater tank and filter which to be honoust worked out really well i will make the move to a slightly better setup.
All the equipment came in last couple of weeks. Reefwave and Reefdoser were already running in my old setup...
Hello guys, I’m starting a new tank and mixed in Fauna Marin professional salt for the first time. Since tank was empty I decided to just mix in it, then add salt later.
The problem is the water is still milky white almost 48 hours later.
this is how it looks:
Even if you take some water...
Hello reefers,
I’ve got some crazy high phosphates, 0.25 to be exact.
it was probably from LFS water, I already ordered my own rodi waiting for it to arrive , but I need urgent help with Fauna Marin PowerPhos GFO since honestly their instructions suck.
This is the product:
my questions are...
I’m part of a Brazillian group of reefers that get together every week to discuss online reefing topics (Amigos do Marinho, YT Chanel ForipaReef).
I would like to share with you an interview we made with @Fauna Marin CEO, mr Claude Schumacher, where we discuss with him many interesting topics...
Hello Reefers,
I hate to do posts like these but I feel it’s necessary to grow as a community and to hold vendors accountable.
I sent out an ICP from @Fauna Marin to their Ft Myers location which got delivered on July 23rd. It’s August 8th and they have not given me the results back. The most...
Afternoon Fauna. Have to admit I am very disappointed At Fauna lately. I have tried emailing Claude directly and no luck. I have posted here to try to find product info and support and I have achieved minimal responses and NOT on a timely fashion.
I also got in touch with my of my local...
just got my test results in for the ICP. Need your help identifying what is out of whack in my tank so I can get it fixed.
Looks like I should dose some trace elements?
Aluminum at 41.26?
dealing with STN for a while on Acro, so would be great to nail it down
thanks!
Nitrate increases zooxanthellae population density and reduces skeletogenesis in corals.
To reduce nitrates in the aquarium:
-Do larger, more frequent water changes
-Reduce bioload and/or reduce feeding
-Carbon dosing: try a liquid nitrate remover or use biopellets in a media reactor
-Start a...
Good afternoon, just got my icp test results back and could do with some help and advise. So many orange readings and I just don't know where to start! I'm not currently dosing anything and doing 20% water change fortnightly. Corals / cuc doing terrible hence the test being done.
Anyone have experience with Fauna Marin Pro sea salt? I'm looking to switch from RSCP to a lower Alk mix.

Thanks!

Hi all,
I have enclosed my ICP results and am interested in peoples opinions, and what difference if any dosing the low micro elements would have.
Also I note my salifert reading for Mg was way off and there are no readings for Lanthanum or Iron yet I add these for phosphate control.
Thanks
I ran ATI, Triton, & FaunaMarin ICP tests on my 160 gallon reef tank. All three tests were taken within 3 minutes of each other from the same location within the aquarium.
Attached are the results.
TLDR:
I now trust the results of all three (except Triton Iodine) as they all reasonably agree...
Hi,
i got my ICP test result. I am dosing FM balling light, but mostly just KH as Ca doesn’t drop. Also adding Organic, Amin and Min S. My microelements are low and i wonder ifI could add Color Elements which have a combination of all required elements instead of dosing one by one. Here is my...
