    RSM Crystal Crack. WARNING!

    Pocketreef - I don't think the Vortech got anything to do with it. It was on night mode at about 25% plus I reinstalled after cleaning it a few minutes before this happen. I will have to agree more with Terry, It was more a defect on the manufacturing process than a human error. Dan - I don't...

    RSM Crystal Crack. WARNING!

    I purchase the RSM 250 5 months ago. Without warning last Thursday night the glass cracked on the top right side, where the glass makes its distinctive curve, going all the way down and to the front of the tank. So far all the livestock is at some fellow reefer, but I am very concerned...

    Arreola's RSM 250!!

    Poriferan - It is very true!! I am in the point that I want him to sleep 8 hours at night, but for what I've read and told by the pediatrician, this is related more to the weight of the baby than to other things. Back to the Battle vs Bryopsis. I been reading that elevating the Mg levels...

    Thanks all for the comments! Terry - Thank you!! We are getting used to the baby, and we are getting a lot of help by having a nurse one night a week, so we can recover from those sleepless nights. They charge a fortune but is worth every penny. Anthony - My sister have a 2 yr old kid, most...
