    “Load Shed Events” -Abbott

    STP being down had a lot to do with it. But there were also quite a few of the plants that had frozen control systems and tripped. But looks like we made it through this year. Although I did have a minor freakout at 0200 this morning when my RedSea doser went offline and text me.

    “Load Shed Events” -Abbott

    Hopefully the blackouts (load sheds) don't happen, but tomorrow morning will be the big test. This time last year I had crews at quite a few power plants in Texas working on repairing issues caused by the freeze. This year we are all on sites but just sitting on standby in case something...

    Is PAR bleaching a thing?

    I’m always afraid of dosing too much. I travel quite a bit for work so having the wife or kids troubleshoot an issue or test while I’m gone is difficult. But they really like feeding the fish so it works great for us. I removed all filtration but a skimmer that only runs 18 hours a day. I...

    Is PAR bleaching a thing?

    Following. Great information. Coming out of a similar situation with 0 Nitrates. Went the more natural route and added fish and number of feedings. Starting to get nitrates now. And SPS are starting to color up better now.

    Gorilla Crab

    I just sharpened some stainless TIG wire and tried to spear it but he’s too quick. I was using a white light but I’ll try a red or green light when it comes back out.

    Gorilla Crab

    Anyone have any tips for removing a Gorilla Crab? Just found one that came in with the live rock a few months ago.

    Ercot

    I know it won’t help but I have been traveling non-stop during the freeze and ever since. The weather in February did a ton of damage to the power plants in Texas and spring and fall are the times of the year where the plants come down for maintenance so we keep our AC and heaters running...

    Mixing Station

    Question for those with mixing stations. I finally have my mixing station up and running. I am planning on hooking up the auto water change this weekend. I bought a Jebao DCP 6500 to mix the saltwater tank but it doesn’t look like it’s moving much water. The tanks are 65 gallons. The pump...

    It does look like that but would the arm still move after detachment?

    Those spines are hard. I thought it was dead but as soon as I pulled it out of the tank it started moving.

    Having seen this tank in person I am extra sorry for your loss. It was awesome and I’m sure you’ll get it back even better.
