    2016 200 gallon reefing restart

    On Sunday I added Dr. Tom's one and only and dosed with Ammonia, dosed on monday, dosed on tuesday. Currently a diatom explosion, I will leave lights off today. Ammonia is at .4 on red sea test, NO3 is now at 2 so something is happening, NO2 is 0. PH 8.2. Here are some current tank pics...

    2016 200 gallon reefing restart

    yes the vectra pumps talk to each other and sync, you just can't see the cool graphs.. :) or switch modes dynamically. Reef link pushes the info up to ecotech's cloud service, like apex pushes theirs to the apexfusion site. The reeflink has some unbelievable controls for their lights, I...

    Apex makes a WXM module for the ecotech's no reeflink required. https://www.neptunesystems.com/vortech-wireless-module-wxm/ Up to 11 pumps and lights are controllable from it.

    2016 200 gallon reefing restart

    Yesterday I plumbed in a temporary sump, an old 55 gallon glass, added the salt threw in some rubble and started up the Waveline 12000. Well to say that is a little too much power for two 1" returns is an understatement, but I will be able to baffle out some for refugium, gfo, carbon etc, glad...

    2016 200 gallon reefing restart

    So after years idling in the back with my old aptasia infested 120 gallon acrylic, I am jumping back in to do it right. Here is the status so far... I picked up a 200 gallon glass tank, 48x36x27, star fire glass. A beauty and a pain to move but she is in place. Purchased an apex controller...

    What happened to this forum?

    Congrats, this year everything is growing. Just a thought can the rules ease up a bit on sales stuff, I always came here for that and it seems like the requirements went up and everybody left, but then I wasn't really around. Looking forward to finding local reefers I can swap and trade with...

    PSAS gone?

    So I want to get back into the community, I used to be involved in PSAS, who is coordinating meetings, bob moore frag swaps etc? Is there a new organization? Do I need to go to portland for pnwmas? I'm in Bellingham.

    What happened to this forum?

    Oh and FWIW Facebook sucks, there is no organization, no searching, just a running spew of photos, spam, vitriol.. Pro's should be in these forums. I plan on starting a tank blog.

    What happened to this forum?

    Looking forward to being part of the community again. Starting slow, very slow. I still have my 120 acrylic but it is down to green/orange mushrooms, my 16yo maroon clownfish, and a tankful of aptasia. Just started a bucket of dry rock to let age for a few months while I prep the new tank...

    Reefing restart

    Good tips, I used to have a tank maintenance guy and a bleach tank before i moved everything to reef. He used to bleach and dechlorinate in one afternoon, fish were fine, even had an anenome. I can get that done using my mix barrels. Now the bigger question is.. my sand from the old tank...

    Reefing restart

    So I have an acrylic 120, tired of acrylic and coralline.. I had a great tank and lost it when overrun by aptasia. I have some mushrooms I want to save, and my clownfish (15 years old). What should i do to some of the old rock to guarantee I never see another aptasia again as I start my new...

    Hey Jason, is this still around? Ready to restart reefing.

    What brand of additives do you primarily use in your beloved reef

    Bulkreefsupply.com for all of my dosing, between water changes, adding calcium and alkalinity using my neptune. Great combo. They also have excellent filters for GFO and Carbon, plus good RO equipment for cheap. They really solved a lot of problems and expense for me.

    Flame Angel

    I really like my flame angel, but he is into picking at my LPS. Is this normal? Do I just need to move him out of my coral tank? Thanks, Ray
