    RO/DI questions

    Some times speed has been an issue for me (how fast I can fill my storage containers. With multiply tanks the 100 GPD is what has worked best for me. I normally always have 100 gallons ready in case of a water accident with one of the tanks. I've been happy with airwaterice.com Typhoon III...

    cleaner shrimp shedding?

    I've taken mine out before and then I've left them. Hasn't seemed to make a difference on my water quality. I suppose if you had a 3½ gallon tank it would but most setups are big enough to handle it. If you have a good clean up crew it should be gone in a couple of days. Regards, Lew90

    Reef Keeping Electronics

    DonW, Were these Reef Keeper controllers. I'm wanting to setup a complete controll automation and I'm leaning towards IKS Aquastar equipment. Do you have any words of wisdom. Please see my other post about this question http://www.reeffrontiers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23221 Thanks, Lew90

    Complete System Automation

    Thanks Charlie! There seems to be only few brands that I've seen. Hoping for some more ideas on setup, probes, anything that people preferr or don't. Another brand that I thought of after my post is YSI. The company I work for has something that I might put into the finished system...

    First "Real" test results of my tank

    Hi Rocker, I'm not sure I would trust the kit since the tip is missing. Think about it...Salifert tells you to make sure the tip is attached and to make sure the tip does not come out of the solution while your filling the syringe. Describes how to read the piston, and that the air inside...

    Bare bottom

    Charlie, Here are some pictures of before and after. I have to agree with Curtswearing about "rule of thumb". I played around with the two newer pumps and ended up moving them and changing one to a Rio 600. After I get more of the junk out I'm move them back to the back corners. I also...

    Bare bottom

    Charlie, The pumps that I just placed in the back corners of my 90 gal. were Maxi-Jet 1200, 295gph. Since this is my softy tank I don't have as much flow as my other tanks or as much as you. ~1300 gph of return with ~600gph in display and now I've added ~600 more on timers in the display...

    Bare bottom

    Charlie, No rack or eggshell only rock on glass. The gentleman that sold me the tank did give me good advance, what worked for him and I followed through with it. I'm going to try and post some pictues of before and after today but I'm also added a chiller and gravity feed refugium to my...

    Bare bottom

    Hi Charlie, Here's my two cents as well. I'm kinda of echoing what DonW has to say only sounds like he doing a better job. :D I don't know all of the issues from going to a DSB to a BB because the BB 90 gal tank that I have was purchased from a previous owner. He had it set up for 8 years...

    Fiberglass in tank - Question?

    Thanks Meche! That's what I kinda thought, after I cut the rod into short pieces I rinsed them off. I wanted to ask first to see if anyone had opions before I started rearranging the rock. Thanks Again! Regards, Lew90 I

    Fiberglass in tank - Question?

    Here's what I'm thinking. I would like to rearrange some of my rocks in one of my display tanks. I was talking to Moortim about this and he memtion that KevinPo gave him the idea of using parts of plastic clothes hangers as straight short pin. With small holes drilled into each rock. I...

    I'm finally ready to show off my 55

    Moortim, I'm posting an answer to your question about what type of goby you have. It's a Green Banded Goby (Elacatinus multifasciatum) formerly known as Gobiosoma multifasciatum, it has since been reclassified as Elacatinus multifasciatus and is from Puerto Rico. Come April 5 2007 I'll take...

    Sick Fish

    Update -Sorry I'm late on the followup I've been busy with Christmas. I'm sad to say the fish needed make it. :( On the 19th of my last post I had a meeting that night and wasn't able to do the hypo like I had wanted. Sounds like maybe a good thing although the out come was the same. I...
