    Want to Buy WTT - ATI2615 Powermodule Hybrid

    ATO ideas?

    So I finally got my new 150g up and running with my small fish room (will start a build thread in the next few days). I want to hook an ATO up directly to my RODI, like maybe using an electric ball valve or something. So that when the ATO senses the tank needs water, the ATO just opens a valve &...

    CaribSea Purple LifeRock

    Who here has a tank that is at least a year old that used the CaribSea purple life rock? I have some mixed with real live rock in a tank & in the last year it just doesn't hold the life as the real reef rock. I guess because it isn't as porous. Even my zoas & shrooms kind of avoid it. I ask...

    New Tank - Bio Start up

    What is everyone's go to for starting the bio / bacteria in a new tank? I use bio-spira in my QT set-ups, and it seems to work well. But I see many other options - Microbacter 7, Dr Tims, Old school shrimp in a bag, etc. My 150g is getting wet this weekend, so I was wondering what I should use...

    New 150g - 2 quick questions

    So I have had tanks for years, currently have 5 set up, but none as large as this. My new 150g will be on a steel stand and I'm wondering.... 1) Should I place a piece of wood under the stand? thickness? yoga mat? both? or none? 2) I usually place egg crate under my sand in case of rocks...

    Anyone looking for new fish?

    Met a guy here in town that gets fish close to wholesale cost. I ordered 2 solorensis wrasses and a pair of Rhomboid wrasses from him last month & everything came in very healthy. He doesn't order all the time but just asked if I was interested in buying any more.... I am. The order has to be...

    Crypto

    So this past week I purchased Dogecoin and it got me thinking, why not buy more of several different types of crypto. So I looked for easy platforms to buy & found 2. Today most are down a bit, so I figure its a decent time to buy. Robinhood - where I got the dogecoin and today bought several...

    SBB Hephaestus or Dogecoin

    So I started a small personal contest today. I bought some SBB Hephaestus zoas & some Dogecoin. I want to see which one appreciates or makes me a return faster. I've never tried to sell any coral other than the nems that multiply like rabbits in my tanks, so this will be interesting. Thoughts?

    2 Apex Units

    Anyone here run 2 Apex units? I have 1 running my main (biggest) tank, but recently set up another tank I'd like to control as well. I have an extra Apex brain (2016 wifi model) and an extra Eb8 unit. I could just link the EB8 to my current Apex but thought I might try setting up 2 just because...

    Anemones & Clownfish

    For those that keep numerous nems, do you think clownfish are needed or beneficial? I've had tanks both ways & current;y I don't really like the clown that is in my nem tank. I was thinking about moving him to another tank & just having no clown in that tank. Thoughts?

    Goni Keeping

    So I picked up my first goni the other day & need a little help. The first few days it was out & extended & happy.... then it pulled in and hasn't come back out. It's still very bright but just isn't extending. Do they need a lot of flow? I have it in a fairly low flow tank. Also, do they like...
