    Need advice- Icecap Gyre 4k

    Look for the older model if you want to save a few bucks. Pair of Xf250s would rock. Saw it on ebay a while back.

    Need advice- Icecap Gyre 4k

    Go bigger Cody. I had a gyre 3k and felt that it wasn’t strong enough even running almost 80% in my 180, especially when they get a little dirty. As the others mentioned get a larger one and run lower. Also less stress on motor, less noise and more potential to ramp up when your stuff...

    Definitely recommend 2 on opposite side. Easier to alternate flow patterns to reduce deadspots.

    General advice on equipment setup

    900gph return pump is a tad small for that system. Especially if you are splitting it with a refugium. I would recommend increasing the flow to the refugium and doing more maintenance so that it is kept cleaner. Once gha takes hold in the cheato it will destroy it. You can try cutting off or...

    What is your cleaning regimen?

    I have to agree with you on Vinegar, that is a reefers best friend for sure. I use that for my pumps (return/skimmer/ca rx) and wavemakers. If there is too much algae on the wavemaker, I will soak in bleach first to flake off the algae. Just make sure you rinse real well after, also can use...

    Kh levels

    This is a very open ended question. Will depend on what type of corals you are keeping and nutrient levels.

    How much is it to get glass cut for baffles for a sump?

    If you are using a glass tank, glass partitions will hold up better. I've used acrylic with glass before, but the silicone doesn't adhere to the acrylic that well long term. If you go that route, make sure you use something better than standard silicone.

    Black spots on Naso Tang

    Can anyone help identify the black dots right under the mouth on the face of the naso tang? I looked up black ich but it doesn't seem to look like it. Just noticed it on my fish today, he didn't have it yesterday. Doesn't seem stressed and eating very well still. Not trying to scratch or...

    Need help Bending Acrylic

    Anyone have any experience bending Acrylic? I purchased an overflow with my new tank and it seems the overflow is not a true 90 degrees, so I need to bend it about 5-10 degrees so it fits properly, at its current angle, it would put too much strain on the silicone once installed in the tank...
