    Salt Dilemma?

    I changed my salt from Red Sea Coral Pro to Red Sea Salt due to high Alk. But Red Sea is one of the best salts around. You can use the Red Sea ( blue ) salt and start adding sps. One the sps start consuming a lot of Ca and Alk you can shift over to the RCP salt. There are also several other...

    Acro Bleaching

    I would stop all kinds of dosing for a few days and test my water regularly. After the water stabilises I would than dose what is actually needed. That way you will not have this swings in the water parameters. And get some good tests kits to give you some accuracy in the results. Thanks

    Acro Bleaching

    Try reducing your Alk to about 7.5 range. Sometimes acro bleaches at higher levels of Alk. IMO Alk at 8.5 appears to be a tad higher than normal for the SPS. Just my thoughts though.

    Macna 2014 & Red Sea

    Heard a rumour that the Red Sea LED lights are still under development. I think there is some issue with their systems which they are trying to sort out and hence the delay in launch from November to 2015. If anybody has any concrete info please chip in cause I am also waiting impatiently for...

    Choff's RSM 650 Build

    There is nothing you can do if the acros start TN during transit. The transit time to my place from the nearest LFS is 18 hours by train or about 7 hours if I use air freight. I have lost quite a few sps in transit. By the way what did RS display in Macna? Anything about the upcoming LED in RSM...

    Wrangy's 50 Gallon Reef Cube

    I agree with the suggestion of your zeo friend that all other dosing except the basic two should be stopped. Why don't you just use zeostart and Zeobak for a few weeks till you have the ULNS set status and than start the other stuff. Maybe you can also ask G Alexander for a few tips. But your...

    Kangkan's RSM S 500 Journey

    The copperbands will literally munch all the aipstasia , big and small. The trick is to keep the copperband alive with other foods once they strip the tank clean of all aipstasia . But please remember to turn around the rocks once the surface aipstasia are all eaten. Just get one copperband and...

    Kangkan's RSM S 500 Journey

    Hey Wrangy, thanks for stopping by. I have been neglecting this thread due to work commitments and being busy with zeovit stuff. My Zeo results have been a mixed bag and I am getting mixed results. Another good news is that I have managed to rid my tank of all aipstasia. I had millions of them...

    fragging a toadstool

    You can dice it up like a mushroom. Toadstools are very resilient and will grow back from the cuttings. Just snip it the way you like.

    Torch and hammers loosing heads anybody??

    Smell the affected corals. If it smells bad than it is brown jelly. Try treating with antibiotics for guaranteed cure. I had good success with doxycycline treatment
