Reef safe Medic by Polyplabs is a really good white spot treatment for a reef tank.
Alex, why don't you sell 3d printed frag holders and tupperware on Ryan's stand? For people that want to buy lots of corals :)
I’ve had my current tank for 10+ years the only two parameters I have checked in the last two years are salinity and PH. I have been going slowly to full blown SPS tank. At the moment I have one style of mushrooms, two hammers and the rest is SPS. Everything is growing like weeds and I have not lost a coral in years (knock on wood)
No Signature Frags going 😢 that was main reason going
Great Live stream listening to this on our drive back from Reefapaloza California
Wow😮 this is an answer to my prayers. The way you described the pH issues is exactly what I'm dealing with right now. You described everything about hearing someone say one thing and then someone else says another contradicting each other. Thank you for your help.
Hi i just wanted to know can i use Just glass tank not any aquipment from this tank "Ciano Emotions Nature Pro 120 63 Gallons freshwater Aquarium" for saltwater aquarium? and its stand for saltwater sump?
what's up guys how have you guys been? Good too se you posting again. I hope your partner is feeling well.
Ok i must have been half asleep when writing my question, it was basically about what effects pH has on freshwater plants vs salt water and whether or not its importance was the same or weighted to one side. My pH with test strips (i know, but marine is my goal and i wanted something in my office until i can afford a red sea max tank) is somewhere in the range of 7.6-8.4, and the test strip instructions dont tell you what it means to be high or low! thanks for clarifying on pH though, was interesting to hear about! p.s. i hate test strips, orange, red and pinky purple all look the same, just like those monti's ;)
Just accept Ryan’s help!!!
The bearded guy from world wide corals is Josh I believe?
My ph peaks little above 8.7 with ATI Essentials+ and fresh CO2 media. The low is now above 8.3. It's crazy, I recalibrated the APEX PH probe and it's correct. So now I'm wondering...how high is to high? Growth is great lol, I notice if ph goes above 8.5 the alkalinity uptake goes sky high.
I've never seen anyone commit to an answer to that question! Chumingham's reef runs insanely high pH without issue - his tank is spectacular
@@ReefDork well today hit 8.8. My Apex lost connection and the lights didn't follow schedule and ran 6 hours longer on full blast until I got home. I need to sort this out, lights are controlled by MXM module via Apex. If Apex loses connection the light stop following their program. Luckily my skimmer cup was full which turned the skimmer off or the ph would be even higher.
My first car was my Mom’s Morris Minor 1000, OAB106E and my second was a MK1 Golf
My first car was a 1 litre vauxhall Corsa - I still ended up crashing it into a ditch and ended up flipping it onto the roof....
What test kit do you use for testing alkalinity? The amazon link for that one doesn't seem to work
Hanna alkalinity checker
Ok thanks @ReefDork
Whenever I see some ick spots, I’ll soak frozen food in bright well vitamin C and turn the UV on. Success so far
Did you go to signature frags at Ripley? (I live 8 minutes from there) You need to drop in at wharf aquatics one time!
Surprised you guys didn’t talk about the new frozen auto feeder
Think we've mentioned it before unless there's another new one?
@@ReefDork the one from inD Aquatics
Can’t wait for Aqua H. 🤓Hoping my Autism allows me to interact and say Hi to you guys 🤞
thats funny, it took you to fall ill for people to look for you. either way Im glad you're doing well my fellow hobbyist.
I got my tickets last week! I might get a couple of Ryan's grafted monti caps
don't give it too any stalkers lol
so you have gotten bit, wait till you get into the meat corals.....
holy grail micro is the shit
Must be a testla thing not an EV thing, we've had 2 different EVs over 4 years and has zero issues at all, including with software
Totally - my next car will be an ev, just not a Tesla...
Thanks!
