    Interested in macro alge

    Not sure what kind you are looking for I have some Ulva. It floats on top of my water in the sump. It grows well and you can feed it to your fish.

    feeding your corals

    Yes matt I see that . That is what makes this hobby so hard to figure out. Different people do different things and does get confusing for the new reefer. Be a good idea to get some of you old salties to be mentors for new people coming into the hobby. Be more one on one instead of six or seven...

    feeding your corals

    I was not trying to cause a fight here. I was just interested to see how fellow reefers feed their coarls. I see it varies from reefer to reefer. I am sure in the wild these corals get what they get it the water and what ever piece of fish happens to fall on them. Corals are animals is...

    Reef tank overview want to make sure I'm doing it right

    I have shut off on my out take from the dt. I then have a shut off and a baffle in the return line. The shut off valve on the return controls water from sump back to dt. The baffle is there for loss of power that water will not return back into the sump.
