    Calibrating Temp Probes

    Ok, I may be crazy but I have little to no faith in the Actual temp in my aquarium. I use a temp probe through my Reefkeeper and It just doesn't calibrate. I get different readings. I unplug a heater or plug one in and wait and no change for hours sometimes. I had one of those digital ones...

    OK reefers, check this out

    I can't believe what I have just witnessed. I have never purchased a brittle star period. I started my system with dry rock and sand. I did however introduce some corals from my old tank 3 years ago. The result was a population of brittle stars...small but there. Tonight, after lights out and a...

    Question for you Durso standpipe users

    I am having issues with the durso "surging" or making that flushing noise. For the last year never had an issue. I did recently clean my return Pump (951 gph) and replaced some of the hard return schedule 40 with all vinyl tubing instead of some vinyl/pipe. I can't keep a consistant water level...

    Stray Voltage

    Ok, I have a Big question. My reefkeeper PC4 (power bar) is leaking stray voltage into my aquarium. I checked each channel one by one and no change. When I unplug the power strip the voltage stops. There is nothing else in the system that is submerged. Would a ground probe solve the issue until...

    Heater Inquiry

    I have a Reefkeeper Elite and am looking to replace my 2 jager heaters due to stray voltage. I have seen the titanium heaters and am wondering if I can just buy the titanium heating rod and plug it in to the PC4 and control the outlet with the reefkeeper, or is this not how those titanium rods work.
