    Polyp super extention after Calcium, Strontium, iodine additive

    Don, Your right, I tried dosing seperate days to see the effects. When I dosed Polygluconate within minutes the polyps extended and them curled up. My hammer balloned up and my xenia show similar effects. It doesn't seem to be bothering them? Still not sure If I should continue. I mainly dose...

    Color Temperature question for URI brand Flo. bulb

    :D Well, possible, although I notice it most in my tank. If I shut off, for example, my actinic blue flourescents the appearance of the tank changes. Obviously because I'm taking blue out. So, If thats what you mean, I think you have a valid point. If not, you might just have another one for me...

    Color Temperature question for URI brand Flo. bulb

    I went right to the source and called URI (Ulraviolet Resources International). I spoke with a technical representitive who seemed to really know his stuff. He spoke about phosphors (Not sure of spelling here) and purity of phosphors and how their 10,000k flourescent can show a pinkish color. It...

    Flouresent Light Color Temperature Accuracy

    Luke! Sounds like you know your stuff! The guy from URI was on target then. His analogy was that of "Grade A Beef" And Angus" They both look the same but taste different." I think URI makes a good quality bulb even thought is doesn't appear to be the standard color (yet) for a 10,000K. Also...

    Color Temperature question for URI brand Flo. bulb

    Hey Guys, Just bought a URI 10,000k 20w T12 bulb and it's got this redish color coming from it? In the past I've used Coral life brand and it's color index ran real whitish blue like a 10,000k should. Did my vendor send me the wrong bulb? Or is this what URI is putting out for their 10,000K? I'm...

    Best Salt Mix for Mixed Reef?

    Hi Jared, I'm no Anthony for sure but, I just read an article(sorry about no link) but it was a comparison study of about 10 salt products. It was obvious to see that Instant Ocean faired better in almost all areas. Meaning, has far less negitive by products and more of what you need in your...
