    Economic Stimulus and your Reef

    OK, I may have to re-route some of my stimulus check. I cracked my fuge when I was cleaning my Mk 4 pump. LOL, you should see the patch job. No joke, I took my daughers bubble gum and stuck it on there...to no avail. I put some silicone on it and it seems to have slowed the leak down a bit...

    Economic Stimulus and your Reef

    I appreciate the fact that everyone is practicing their right to free speech here. How about we leave the politics out of the forums and just be thankful that we are getting some of the biggest tax breaks in recent history. Yeah, gas prices suck, inflation is on the rise and worker's pay is...

    Coraline Not Growing...

    I so know about the API phosphate kit. It sucks!! OK, try this. The color of the test water should be lighter than any of the color tabs on the chart. If it is even close to the lightest color tab...too much phosphate. Try a dedicated phosphate reactor. They are cheap...I have a Kent...

    Pictures of my reef

    Everyone seems to like my strange rock! It's Totoka, with a Fiji Premium base rock. It seems to be fairly rare from what I can tell in most reefer's tanks. I love it though and it makes mounting corals a breeze. When I frag my leathers, I put them directly onto the totoka rock with a bubber...

    Pictures of my reef

    It is actually a transplant from my 55 gal tank. I have had it set up for 4 to 6 weeks now. I used all the LS, LR and water from the old tank so there was not even a slight ammonia spike. Everything went very well. It's still a young tank and I constantly scrub coralline off of all the...
