    Using Cold RO/DI Water When Mixing Salt

    The pump is just for extra flow in the tank. Not sure why I put that in, just thinking about other stuff that I needed to do to the setup as I was writing this. Nothing is browned out it looks as if they are bleached. Params seem to be in check and my lighting should be fine. I have the AI...

    Using Cold RO/DI Water When Mixing Salt

    Does using cold RO/DI water change the chemistry of the saltwater while it's mixing? I've never used a heater when mixing my saltwater. I've been mixing about 3-4 gallons at a time, this reduces the tank water by a .5 degrees when I add it in my tank. Is this supper stressful for my corals...

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    The tank is pulling through, I'm having some rtn issues and a little of GH algae showing up. These are due to my negligence, I've been slacking on my up keep. Things have been pretty crazy with work and my tank has been suffering. I'm in the process of doing some large water changes to bring...

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    I actually liked the Aqua Vitro salt, I just didn't realize my LFS sold it when I needed more. The only thing I didn't like is it left a layer of calcium build up in the mixing bucket. I ended up switching to the brightwell salt. I'm on the fence so far, I have yet to test what levels are...

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    I'm no longer using the Aqua Vitro Salt. I still dose the calcification and have recently started using Fuel. I won the Aqua Vitro supplement pack from BR during the sale. I'm still debating the rest of the line. I'm not to big a big fan of dosing

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    thanks. Not really sure on the params, they all seem to be in check but some corals are still acting up. On two the polyps are not extending and have color loss still, a little confusing being the rest are pulling back and begging to regrow. Time will tell. I'm also thinking flow might be...

    30 gallon AIO (DIY)

    Just took some shots of the tank at one month, I will try to get them up this evening. I'm having trouble figuring out the colors on my camera though. It's nothing special, just your ordinary point and shot. Before the LED switch I could get some semi decent pictures. I've been having to use...

    Moving Tanks

    great post, moving your tank is always a stressful situation. Bagging your corals is the best advice. I have made three moves, two of which I bagged all corals and the other time I didn't. Nothing was lost the times I had bagged everything and the one time I didn't I had a bunch of color loss...

    Best reef salt mix?

    Not sure if you got a bad batch, mine produces a weird smell as well. Smells kind of like sulfar, It also takes a good 24hrs to mix/loose the smell
