Carpenters reef: I have not contacted the manufacture yet. I purchased the reactor off a guy on Ebay that was taking his tank down. The day I received the reactor, I emailed the company, and they said they had discontinued the model because it did not sell. I asked if they had any reports of any...

Okay, I got this reactor back in Sept of last year for my upgrade to the 125. A week after I moved into my place (in Oct.), I hooked it up. I have had nothing but problems. First the reactor would suck up the media into the pump. It had a screen on the inside like the ones on the bulkheads, but...

I had them in my 60, and I know of another reefer that had them. I tried everything, injecting them, boiling the rock. I kept missing a few and they would spread. Until I got myself an angel. I picked up a lemonpeel without knowing anything about them, and 2 weeks later they were gone, so were...

Just ordered 8 bags. Stuff is pretty cheap. As soon as my Kalk runs out, I will start using this. http://store.yahoo.com/mrswages/mrswagpiclim.html

I too have had great success with Kick Ich. My Regal Tang used to have ich too. I used it and it seemed to take care of the ich. Please do keep us updated.

I have one heck of a time trying to adjust this skimmer. It's either too wet, too dry or overflowing. Luckily I learned before and it is now in the sump. How does everyone adjust their skimmer? I tried those little knobs that come with it, but the pump overflows the skimmer, so currently I have...

Anyone have a pic of the package, so I have some idea of what I am looking for when I go back to the grocery store. Thanks!!!

I have it, and it seems to do a good job on my 125. It takes a bit to get it dialed in, but seems to pull pretty good running on a pump not gravity fed. Here are some pics of it in action on the 2nd and 3rd day. The foam was a bit wet, but have since fixed it. I bought it used off this board...

I have the same problem. I was getting reading from 7.86-8.01. I posted a couple of times with no luck. I used the Kent Superbuff as you did with no luck. Lately I have been able to get the ph up to 8.10-8.26. What I did was add more agitation at the surface of the water. Are you running a...

I Feel for you. I had one in my first tank, I moved it from that tank to a nano because I read about them. One day it got sucked up in the PH and well... you know what happened. I saw a damsel that was in the tank kill over really quick. That did it for me, I will never get one. Sorry to hear...

Do you happen to have a digital, or can you draw it out and scan it. You can email it directly to me if you can't post it. I tried to wire up some other ballasts to 9 watters, and almost caught my new house on fire (luckily my gf came home in time, no flames). I need to make sure it it correct...

yea, could you remove the cover and tell me the wiring setup. I think one wire off one ballast is connected to the other, then the other ends run to one side to each light. Not too sure though. Where does the green wire from the plug go??? See, I need some help.... Looks like this one...

Just wondering. I need to know the wiring on it. the casing on mine was messed up, so I decided to rewire it, and can not get it right. Should have taken a pic before. If anyone can draw it out or take a pic of the wiring I would aprecieate it. I found a new casing and I am going to use it for a...

I too have seen these "yellow" or "bright pink" colts around lately. I read somewhere about what coralite said. If I can find the site I will post it. I have seen these in a few of my LFS tanks and they don't look too well after a week or so. The LFS was actually selling it as a rare species...

Mine do this from time to time. I had my large toadstool close up for almost 2 weeks. I thought it was a gonner, but it finally came out. When my leathers are closed up for longer than a week, I usually run a bag of carbon throught the system and take it out when I think it is fine. Where do you...
