    Nick Reef bulk supply have a ph meter cheap for under 20 bucks and I got one, it's not as accurate 0.0 like pinpoint which is 0.00 accuracy but then you don't have to spend 100 bucks for it either. Here is the link http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/milwaukee-ph-meter-pen-ph600.html

    Cheap Glass Drilling in Seattle!!

    Well then why do you even bother to mention them?? If they are not friendly then don't do business with them. Just because they are 10 bucks doesn't mean you have to lick their .... and pretend anything. This is recession, if someone has a problem with serving a customer then f.. em, let them go...

    Feeding peppermint shrimp?

    Holy cow....you got a whole army there :) I only got two in my 46 gal and I feed them frozen brine shrimp because aiptasia didn't last too long with those guys.

    yellow tail & blue damsels?

    I got all of them and black velvet. Never buy a black one, that fish likes to dominate the tank and during feeding time it appears to own the tank. Sometimes I have to split feeding so other fish can eat too. Keep the yellow tail, it's a well behaved damsel. The other ones are good for cycling...

    cureing live rock??

    Yeah, a frequent large water changes will help for sure. I am not sure if it's too late but I would scrub all rocks to get the dead stuff off with a toothbrush. That ammo spike was most likely from dead organisms on the rock.

    "Cheers from Vancouver" here is my tank

    That looks great :) What is that green thing you have in your tank? Definitely would like to buy some to my tank to add color.

    Protein Skimmer

    Keep in mind that these skimmers have a somewhat large foot print. AquaC skimmer works for me, but not with the pumps that come standard and their biggest advantage is small footprint same goes with Tunze. Need to oversize the pump and it will work unless there is above average bioload. If your...

    Leaky tank

    Thanks guys. I wish HD people were so well informed :) Instead of "You can do it, we can help" slogan they should have "If you know what you doing, then maybe we can help" :D

    Leaky tank

    Speaking of Weld On. I'm relatively new to sump building and recently I went to Home Depot and they had no clue where I can find it. Can anyone please tell me what's a good place to buy either #3 or #4. I used PVC cement and it seems to work so far but I want to do it right.

    My new sump design

    If you don't care how it looks then a jig saw will do it or a grinder. I just modified a 20 gal acrylic sump I traded for, and had to cut thru a 1/2" acrylic piece to open up the top and then move a wall on the left side about 2 inches to the right so I can fit a return pump. It was a nice...

    Need aptasia advice

    Just put a leash on it to keep it away from shrimp lol. Even if it's somewhat uncertain that shrimp will eat it, it's always worth trying because that is the easiest approach and less time/labor consuming. Someone else (shrimp) is taking care of it for you :)It worked for me and it did take few...

    Need aptasia advice

    Just get some peppermint shrimps for about the same price of that bottle or less. I have 3 of them in 46 gal and all rocks are squeaky clean. I recently obtained some live rock with that crap on it and all of it was gone in like 2-3 days. This is the way to do it rather than exposing fish and...

    petmountain.com

    pet mountain I got about 150 bucks worth of stuff from those guys (free shipping :) ). Well worth it, Danner pumps are way cheaper than marine depot. I got some koralias, maxijets and a Danner 2 for my uv. I seriously consider not shopping @ marine depot anymore because they are getting...
