There was a post about a year ago where someone showed how they had glued a piece on the impellar to stop the chattering noise. There were pictures on exactly what to do. It might be on ReefCentral. Hope that helps.

It's a 90gal with a 90gal sump/refugium plumbed in the basement Euroreef CS8-3 440W VHO actinics Dual 250W MH Ushio almost 3 years old Here you go:

I think it is important to remember (even though it now seems to be taken for granted) just how much the space program has benefitted all of mankind. Many of the technologies, medicines and just plain old creature comforts that we all enjoy have their roots in space exploration. For this...

Where did you get it and how much? Thanks!

Jeremy, Must have been my visit to buy that BTA. I have that affect on women :lol: Good luck! Carl

Funny you should ask. I to can't see spending $100 or more on a clam without seeing it first. I subscribed to the clam update list at www.ffexpress.com and received an email each time they updated their "Spectacular Clams" page. After a few weeks I finally saw the clam I wanted. A 6" purple...

I had the same question last week. The TDS meter read 0 but when I tested for phospahtes I got a reading of .1 comming out of my filter. I replaced my sediment and carbon filters on my 5 stage Mako and the water tested 0 for phosphates. I think you need to test with the TDS and a phosphate...

I posted this topic on another forum this week. Hope it helps. http://www.reefcentral.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=0aeda1eaf604b64ea6b6fd369623c19c&threadid=52418

I must be lucky because I have dozens of baby tiger trochus in my 90. They have been growing for a few months and are now the size of a tic-tac.

Yes it will. I took a piece (about the size of a dime) off GSP of a rock and glued it to the back glass. 3 months later I have an area about the size of a dinner plate on the back.

Ok. I have $450 - $500 dollars to spend on new metal halides retros and I'm looking for advice. I decided to take the plunge and get 2 250W. Here's the deal - I have a 90gal with 440W VHO already. Mostly LPS and softies. Would like to mix in some SPS and clams and end up with a mixed tank...

I know the these are not reef safe but can they survive in a refugium as long as it is big enough? Will they eat brisstle worms and pods? Thanks.

I did something very similar. Two comments. If you haven't already planned to I would add some baffles in the refugium to seperate the return pump from the refugium. The baffles will help control bubbles being pumped back into the tank. Also you might want to split off one of the overflows...
