I myself would not buy copepods or amphipods unless you can't wait. They will occur after not too long from your live rock and from the bases of new corals and such that you add. Don't buy special food for them. They eat darn near every little tidbit. They will move from the fuge to the tank on...

IMHO, this just is not enough light. Maybe you do it and it works but.....You would have to put them so high you would probably have to tape them to the bulbs with duct tape. :lol:. Sorry to make light of your question, it is just not enough light.

You could double check the claims of the carbon manufacturer by begining a test for PO4 (phosphate) and throwing in a grain of the carbon to see if it turns blue/bluish. Alot of them use Phosphoric acid to create some of the tiny holes in the carbon and to burn off organic matter. Maybe they...

If you want to do PCs ona 29, CSL makes a quad 96 watt smartlight that is pretty neat. This will be fine for softs and some LPS. 175 watt halide would be cool too but not cool as in temp :wink: . If you did the halide, be careful not to boil your tank! You might think about the halides when you...

How deep is your tank? I really would not count ambient lighting for much of anything since it is probably going through several panes of glass to even get to your tank in the first place and at different angles. Room lighting won't count for much either. You are not looking for total LUX levels...

This is a waste of my time. You guys don't have a clue. Sales are very good right now. I realize that I am too busy to get stuck in this quagmire. I wish you all good luck. Ciao.

MattM, From the statement I made about our experiment, your question and correction are off stage. The statement Sam made was to address directly what I reported. Sure I could add many procedures. That is not the issue. The issue is simply condctivity as measured. Sam gave only common...

You guys are going to get me fired. :wink: :wink: The magnet is size of watch battery. One face +, other face -. South pole faces away from internal tube. That is why we say keep unit about six inches away from aquarium water contact because of South pole interference. Please respect that I am...

ECO-Aqualizer uses North end only. Not North and South.

I'm sorry. I read it closer. Okay.

MattM. I may be misunderstanding it but are you saying that I said: There are private Web sites that have copied FEMP reports from the FEMP and national laboratory Web sites. If the Web site you are reading does not have a ".gov" address, then the document may not be an official publication...

Sam Gamble had this to say about pH and conductivity: Conductivity is measured in electrical current within the system or usually an aqueous solution. In the past it was most formally used to measure the reciprocal of resistance (ohms). As time and experience has passed it has been equated to...

I am still asking our CEO what I can and can not divulge. Info is coming. Righty says: Your comparison to alternate fuel vheicles seems odd, as water treatment plants do not have to 'change everything' to use a product like yours. They have to change very little; all they have to do is put a...

OK. In the heat of the battle I fell face first in dog dooky. :( . Actually, I laughed about it myself as well. I feel like I am drowning trying to respond back to every comment. When I read the joke about bi-polar, I took it serious without getting the joke. What I had mixed up in my head was...

OK....I can get on a bit all throughout today. I will try to address as many things as I can. First of, Theoretical physics and theoretical chemistry are all fine and we could all argue about things that none of us are extremely qualified for.....at the end of the day, ECO-Aqualizer works...
