Anyone ever used an electronic salinity monitor and if so, do they work?

Never seen or heard of this before. I`ve had this bi-colour for around 18 months with no problems, it`s a very happy reef-safe fish, always on show. Since I did a little bit of rock rearranging yesterday he/she has now decided she want`s to be a clownfish!

Just scraped the algae scrubber and this new type of algae has grown at both sides of the screen where the LED is not quite as intense. Usually it`s similar to the "Turf" down the middle but not quite as green or stringy. This stuff is like mini seaweed which pops water when you squeeze it. Any...

Just spotted about 100 fry in a "cave" in my tank. No idea when or how or who or why. I have 2 common clowns and 5 blue/green Chromis. I`ve seen clownfish fry before and these are not from the clowns, they`ve never even looked like getting jiggy. Come to think of it neither have the Chromis. I...

I`ts been great for months, always big and plump and healthy looking but for the last couple of months it`s looking like a rag-mop! All perams are fine.

Hi guys. The camera on this phone takes stunning, pin-sharp photo`s of the reef tank but I would like to know if I can get the fluorescence of the corals in actinic lighting to show up with perhaps some filter or something. Completely a novice here when it comes to this subject. Cheers

Just experimenting with photo uploads so bear with me. Ok, I think I have it.

Hi everyone. I`m just getting back into reef keeping after an 18 year absence. Just set up a 2nd hand Red Sea Max 250 a month ago. My last aquariums were a 6ft x 2ft x 2ft with full Tunze system, ran this for about 4 years and then had to downsize to a 5 ft MiniReef. A house move and other...
