    What's Your Tank Bottom?

    Yes, before I knew any better and I setup my tank in an emergency I used crushed coral which I am slowly but surely removing by simply syphoning it out. So I guess in time it'll be bare bottom

    Dumb Question?

    I know this sounds stupid but are you sure your pictures are smaller than 100k in size? Most digiatal cameras even on it's lowest setting take pictures around 300k or larger. If they are larger and than 100k and you need a good way to shrink I use microsoft office picture manager which can do...

    Lighting for 36" tank - Ballast Smells

    I would have to physically see the balast itself to be sure but it sounds to me like it overheated and began to loose some of it's insulation capabilities. Therefore creating a possible serious problem. I personally would turn that balast off, I have seen bulbs explode if the insulation...

    Calculating Pump Flow

    Sounds right to me, the pump is only going to do 1200 gph therefore if you split it 3 ways you will get 400 gph at each outlet. And thats at 0 head. A Mag12 at 4' head which is pretty close to norm if coming from sub is only going to be 1130, which would equal about 377 gph at each outlet...

    kalk drip.... many ?????

    got to love Kalk Well the latest readings today are identicle to where I started. No drop in calc, ph, or alk. I have stablized at 420, 3.31, 8.1 May not be perfect but pretty balanced to me and I think it's better to be stable than perfect. Is it not better this way than having to add...

    kalk drip.... many ?????

    OMG I hope it's a typo ya it's 78 FYI from the readings I've been keeping I average about a .11 drop/day in alk and about 5/day Calcium and to be honest I haven't payed much attention to PH unless I get bored or have nothing better to do.

    kalk drip.... many ?????

    you have to remember Charlie, just how lazy I am :) I was planning on letting it drip till empty then refill every evening around same time and restart. I would imagine that at 1drip/sec 1 gal would be gone in in about 12hours. Maybe not but ...... well I don't know :) Lets see ..... tomarrow...

    kalk drip.... many ?????

    Not to rehash an old subject but I just wanted to double check what I'm doing. As of today I have started to drip Kalk at a rate of about 1drip/sec . I mixed 2 tsp ms wages pickeling lime to 1 gal RO water and am dripping into the sump. I made my own container out of an old plastic milk bottle...
