    Old bottles of Seachem Prime still usable for reef tanks?

    I ordered a bottle of Prime from a pretty big lfs/pet store and when I received the package i found 2 bottles in smaller size to make up for the 1 bottle i ordered. Either they ran out of the size I ordered or they gave me two smaller bottles cause they wanted to get rid of the older stock. Ok...

    Advise on Reactor (Biopellets or GFO)

    Hello fellow reefers. Happy Thanksgiving to all here! The ask: I am seeking advice on adding a new equipment (not a refugium) in my filtration arsenal. Based on my small research, a biopellet reactor in sump (just in front of my protein skimmer) would work in my situation to bring down...

    Seachem Pristine vs Phosguard vs Purigen?

    Hi guys, I've been doing some research on products I might get for my tank, and came across 3 relatively similar products all made by Seachem, and I'm wondering if anyone knows what each of them do specifically, or how they work together. The main issues with my tank that I'm looking to solve...

    EMERGENCY Seachem reef dip reached display tank

    Hi everyone. I just accidentally dropped one or two drops of seachem reef dip in my tank. It's around 50 gal total. Should I do something? I figured since it's so diluted, I wouldn't have problems. The tanks is 1 month old and I have a pair of clowns and some GSP. Thanks

    Seachem Clarity: what it ISN'T, and a possible mechanism of action

    This is about Seachem Clarity and its use for water clarifying. I don't know exactly what it is, but I know a common guess that it is not, and I thought I'd post a little about how it seems to behave. The manufacturer page describes it as "...the ultimate clarifier for both fresh and saltwater...

    Dosing Ammonia with Prime

    I don't want to start a debate on whether or not (and how) Prime detoxifies ammonia. There are plenty of raging debates on that already. I want to ask a purely hypothetical question. Now, assuming Prime does what it says (remember, we're not here to debate this), would a person be able to...

    What skimmer for 50G heavy bioload with automatic filter roller

    I have a 50G where I mostly keep LPS and tubastrea. But I wanna keep NPS soft corals (i.e. red finger gorgonian) later down the road, so I'd consider this a heavy bioload 50G. ;DeadCurrent setup and problem.
