    Powder Blue Tang

    This probably more of a rhetorical question, but if you have a fish currently in your system that is showing indications of disease (“scratching “) why on earth would you be considering adding more livestock to that system? In my humble opinion, the focus should be on making sure the fish you...

    Last month was awarded to a piece of equipment. At least this is actually a coral. I’ll take it down.

    Measuring SG - Refractometer vs Hanna

    I have a Hanna salinity checker. It is absolutely useless. Buy a high quality refractometer. (Not the $20 plastic ones.) Or buy a $20 glass hydrometer. They are always correct and never need to be calibrated.

    Niger Trigger Help

    What are your ammonia and nitrate levels? I have a seeded sponge in my sump. Been in there for about 4 months if you’d like to use it. You’re close to me.

    100 yr freeze

    If you go this route, you probably need to drain your hot water heater as well. If you do this, make sure the gas or electric is turned off to the water heater.

    Dosing

    Weekly water changes will take care of most of your levels for the first few months. Maybe longer depending on how much livestock you have. IMHO, there is no reason to spend big bucks on dosing equipment. Once you know what and how much is being consumed, you can dose it manually when you...

    Freezing temperature and storage tanks?

    Saltwater will freeze at 28 degrees, or there about depending on salinity.

    Freezing temperature and storage tanks?

    Drop a heater in each tank. Even a couple of 60watt lightbulb fixtures will help out. The reflector type clamp on fixtures that some people use in their refugium. We put one 60watt bulb fixture in our deer lease camper water pump compartment and everything stays thawed out all season in...
