    Is there a Tropic Marin Pro Reef Group Buy?

    I hope I didn't offend anyone. I wasn't trying to point fingers, only trying to offer my perspective and say thanks to the guys at Barrier. Re-reading my post it sounds kind of condescending and I didn't mean it that way. (I paused before hitting send too)

What are your thoughts on selecting a salt for my elos system where I will be dosing 2 part warner marine? (you can pm me) I bought...

    poll on best heater for in sump

    I just had my titanium heater go out on me. What is the best and most dependable heater to use in a sump application (mounted on its side, completely submersed)? Personally, I only have about 14" of space so some of the longer heaters may not fit. I will be using a heater controller, but I...

    Looking for recomendations on skimmers

    I think warner marine makes a HOT skimmer. I have the AS 150 in sump model and just fired it up. It sure seems like it is working, but no bio load in my tank yet
