Well guys here they are. I did these rather quickly and I am not too happy with they quality but you can tell what my tank is looking like so far. FTS Closer shot of middle of tank Closer shot of right side Closer shot of left side My fav view is...

Well guys it now has been 4 1/2 months since I added 1 liter of EB to my system. System is now 1 year 4 months old. Phos are at 0 - salifert test kit Nitrates are between 0.5 to 0.8 - salifert test kit Things are REALLY stable with all the other water parameters. No hair algae or red/green slime...

LOL! That would be good!

So these guys I guess have nothing better to do with there time than to sit there and send bugus posts! LOL! Can't believe anyone would really want to! So sad :(

LOL! No actually if you look at the thread from beginning you will see that I did not use any PVC. Instead I used macro rocks as the base and then the remaining live rock from the 125g was used. Actually my superman monti fully encrusted the pvc piece that I had originally glued it on. That is...

Ultimately The right way to do this is to t - off my RO unit and run a line to an ATO, which believe it or not I have a float value in my sump that I have never used. This setup is not feasable for me to do since the main tank is in the formal living area. I'd get killed if I ran a piping line...

Seems like a lot of aquarists use the SRO's. ATO, a friend of mine actually has been harping on me to get one. He says that the more consistant I am with the level it will also keep my salinity from dropping. I need to find a big 20 or 30 gallon barrel. Have no clue where to by one. The SRO 3000...

Not sure why it took me so long to go this route but I know that from here on this skimmer should deliver. Is yours an internal model as well? Thnks again Tom!

Well guys here is the maiden start up video of the Reef Octopus SRO 3000. Man this thing is a beast!!! 10:00am Hookup

For my tanks' one year birthday I got it a BIG cake to celebrate! I bought it a great present that will hopefully allow it to have many more birthdays. A Reef Octopus SRO 3000 Internal skimmer! Plan to set it up starting this evening. Wish me luck! Any of you have this model skimmer that may...

Some new additions to the tank. Picked up at MACNA and can't remember what it is. Not sure if this is a cyphastrea or not what do you guys think? Ora's Tri color picked up at MACNA WWC pink red millie, you can't tell from this over head shot but this coral already just two weeks in tank...

Well guys its OFFICIAL!!! My 180g is now a year old! I did though have some early success but right around month 8 to 10 all hell broke loose. A massive alk spike, out of control phosphates and nitrates. We are back on track and ready to go on.......! A couple come back kids.... Superman...

Do you divide by 10 your results?

Well week 6 of running 1 liter of EB. All is well. AMEN! EB is tumbling nicely. Stats Phosphate is a 0 according to Salifert Nitrates are at around .02 to .08 according to Salifert Colors in corals are still holding. Interesting fact that even the zoes that are not under lights have excellent...

I am COMPLETELY excited!!!! I have just purchased 2 mp40's. They arrive on Monday. Anyone have any suggestions on placements?

Wouldn't running a pump be enough? Or should an air stone be implemented?

Since my last post on my 180g journey things were going really well the first 5 months of 2010. My corals were flourishing and I was looking forward to my tanks 1 year anniversary. Fish on the other hand were not doing ok. Out of the 12 green chromis I only have 8 left. The male bellius angel...

Rest I am not sure of. But movement or airating is always recommended.

I usually make my own but the reason for my asking is so that I can narrow down the possibility of my recent sps loses.I thought that maybe this might be a reason. During the summer months I was gone a lot. My roommate feed tank and provided top off water from my RO. Have yet to install Auto...

Hey guys I have what may seem to be a few questions and unproven theory about water changes and the containers. You buy mixed water from an extremely reputable LFS. You have your own gallon jugs with lids. You can't do the WC for several ( 4 to 5 )days. With containers being closed with no...
