Solbby's tank.

i dont know if you've said this or not in your recent posts but i'd like to ask what kind of salt have you found to work for you?

where do you get this L-aspartic, and how much do you dose? How did you come to a certain amount as well to dose

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Nice!!!

 

[jhale]

it's like looking at a candy store

Awesome Shaun!

Hey, are those blue xenia's in the first pic? Jealous!

 

[SlamaJama]

this should be T.O.S, w/o a doubt

Reef Crystals.

I will report on the L-aspartic acid experiments soon. I don't want to make any mistakes regarding peoples tanks, since I am not completely (100%) confident yet with the small time I have been using it.

Yes they are! Turquoise xenia that grew from a small nub as a hitchhiker.

Soon, just got back from vacation so we can now work out a time in the near future.

 

[aaron23]

do you do anything to the new batches of water change, before putting it in the tank? Like how are the parameters for the reef crystals batch of salt?

Shaun, don't post the results. Bottle that $hit and give it some stupid zeo name and charge $200 per bottle. People have made fortunes out of bottled sugar water and vinegar:biggrin:

 

[ShaunW]

Nope, I just mix the salt with RO/DI water and replace the old with the new. I don't care about the incoming salts parameters since I tweak the system as a whole using additives and biology.

Why do you ask?

:biglaugh:

Your probably right, since I don't want the responsibility when someone F$%Ks up and improvises on what I have done, more than making any money on the ideas.

 

[aaron23]

Very interesting, thanks so much for replying Shaun.. The reason I ask is because i've been using tropic marin for about a year and the salt parameters are almost on target to where i want them to be. Each bucket is 69$ and its costing me an arm and a leg. I may soon want to try something else, and it seems you have had no problems with it ..

 

[ShaunW]

Yeah Reef crystals is much cheaper (1/2 as much). I like it, no problems what so ever, and wouldn't switch at this point.

 

[aaron23]

terrific, thanks for the info I will definitely have to try it out

Same here:dog2:

 

[spykes]

[Chiefmcfuz]

Shaun we need bacterial study results soon

I am going to talk about it at the fragswap.
