    January TOM 95% loss and counting

    I woke up Sunday morning to a tank of death and dying. I couldn't figure out what happen since everything was growing strong the night before. After I started a full break down, I discovered that my heater had exploded. I don't really have any words of wisdom except maybe buy a heater not...

    New Kalk reactor

    Well I fired up my Gen 2 Kalk reactor and it is holding water:). My plan was to make this one simple and fix all the problems that Gen 1. One was the Mj1200 that had a tendancy to leak. In the Gen 2, I put the pump inside. I also used all PVC in the Gen 2 since it was readily available. Gen...

    It is time to thin my brown button polyps back and they are free to anyone that will come pick them up. I also have green mushrooms and Anthelia. All are very common but grow fast.

    Honda generator

    I've posted this generator in another thread but I'm so impressed with it that I would like to posted it with its own title I've been running for 9 days without electricity but it only cost me about $7 a day to run my tank refridgerator, and other random things. This thing is pricey but it...

    LP spider reflectors and mounting T5s

    Has anyone tried the Low Profile spider reflectors? I have 2 large spider reflectors on a 75gallon tank. I would like to mount a couple of 48" some super actinics, however, the spiders take up to much room. Any input would be appreciated. Just in case some one has a better idea, I'm only...

    Bali slimer question

    I have a Bali Slimer that's color is slowly fading. He has been in my tank for a few weeks now and was once a very bright green. The strange think is that I have various other SPS (birds nest, Poco, montipora, digi, ect that are thriving. Any ideas, I've read that Slimers were fairly easy...

    added benefit of a maxi hack job and wave maker

    I decided to run my maxi jets on an on/off wave maker. It worked great but I wasn't happy with the flow spread. So I decided to simply cut the pipe off of the maxi jet thinking the water would spread out. This didn't quite work the way I thought. Now the water now comes out sideways instead...

    fiberglass resin reef safe

    I built a frag rack with egg crate, sand and fiberglass resin so it would blend in with my tank better. I've used figerglass resin in the past without problems but now I'm chicken. It is mainly the resin smell that the project has even after a week of rising. Has anyone used resin in...

    close loop Input

    I'm tossing around the idea of putting a closed loop on my 75g and getting rid of my maxijets. I had one in the past on a 150g and liked it but there were some design flaws that made me get rid of it. First a snail got into my SCWD and trashed it just under 6 months. I guess that is why you...
