Thanks Boomer. I have found other articles that likely quote Hicks but not with this much detail. I leaned away from Silica for testing his is has a real high boiling point and I left that I couldn't feasible do such a test without some serious equipment. The calcium carbonate thing seemed much...

I was wondering if someone out there with a good mind for chemistry might be able to help me (and my daughter) out with a little scientific experiment. Under normal circumstances we don't like to mix Klakwasser with CO2 b/c it causes Calcium Carbonate which isn't very soluble. However.... Our...

~~BUMP~~ That's for the inquiries but the tank is still here and she's got to go. I've had some inquires for separate components too but I'd really need the fish & LR gone before I I can sell pumps, overflow etc.. Thanks.

In what sense? The tank was used as a reef. It doesn't have an internal overflow if that's what you're referring to. Photo of overflow is here... You can drill through the glass if you like but I've never been too keen on the amount of space lost by integrating the overflow stack. (less...

**Pricing update 9/9/2011** Hi guys, After years of watching other here say "it's time to make an exit" I find myself saying the same thing. I've had a good run but I can't keep the tank and the wife would really like to reclaim the space. I'd prefer to sell everything at once and I think...

Hi, I've got somewhere close to 100 lbs of live rock, lots of coraline growth, some big show pieces (one almost antler like and the better length of my arm). Tank has been running nicely for a few years but I just don't have the time. PM me if you're interested I can send photos if you...

BUMP... Still have a good amount of great live rock that's gotta go. - Ken

FS: Live Rock (and perhaps full setup / 75G reef + 40G breeder) Hi guys, Sadly, my own time on the saltwater reef front is coming to an end. There's just too much upkeep and the wife wants the space back. :( I've listed my tank on CL and you can check it out there if you like...

BUMP. Now asking $650. (I also may consider trades for any interesting Canon lenses or guitar/ old Tube amp offers.)

Sorry, the majority of the corals are affixed to some pretty large pieces of rock. What's there will be a throw-in for whoever wants the live rock. Thanks.

Bump (images uploaded). Sorry about the poor Point & Shoot clarity and color.

(** MORE images below) Background: I've had saltwater tanks since I was a teenager and decided to assemble a reef tank for my kids about 3yrs back. I have no time or funds to dedicate to keep things going and the wife wants it GONE. I'll try to add some photos in tonight but I'm pretty...

The coral that's been suffering the most is the Sin. He perks up from time to time but seems to be suffering/droopy over all. Other corals include on Brain (which is also kind of sad looking) two frog spawns. (doing real nicely) a toadstool, cabbage, a few some rics and some zoos. I also have...

Is that based on quality of the light itself or cost of bulbs? So far I've found *Power compact units at 260W *T6 unit at 216W (extra 54W – 12000K, Actinics at $6.00/ea) *T5 unit at 216W all at relatively the same prices. decisions decisions...
