    RC down

    Very nice tank - do wonder about any photo enhancement though?, those colours are almost gaudy - never seen any natural reef looking like that?
  2. Would have snapped it up for $50 Ben!!. Cookies got a couple of frags for me :bounce: , but thanks anyway!!
  3. Tried unsucessfully to get a peice of that :evil:
  4. Nice one Conch, I was beginning to think it didn't exist. :lol: Your corals look very happy. well done.
  5. Well done reef, the orange monti is stunning - does the scroll fight with it??
  6. Not a hater, but reef's right, you get what you pay for. The reef octopus are good skimmers for their price, compared to what you use to get in the budget range (Queen, red sea etc).
  7. yep. got some of my corals back from someone who was babysitting them, and they had considerable bubble algae on the rock. The big kole tang went crazy over it, couldn't get enough.
  8. My big Kole tang eats them like candy.
  9. The little starfish are probably asterina, a little pest starfish that comes in on coral rock. Don't cause a problem unless they breed too much!!!!
  10. good article, often wondered about the accuracy of test kits, even the same brand but different batch senario?
  11. Expertise??, you maybe, and wasp who I PM with. Anyone else, don't think so.
  12. its been done before Layton, and you will rubbish them again.......
  13. I make decisions on what works. Taking note and researching what sucessful tanks use seems to me to be highly relevant layton. Other people (not layton no point) look at some of the tanks on this thread, look at the equip and the decide whether the "laytons real reasons" are real. http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1162082 Sorry mods if I can't post this link, wasn't sure??? Whats obvious again Layton is that anyone who doesn't agree must be wrong, hasn't researched correctly and is just copying other people.
  14. Laytons always been anti calcium reactors, but there are good sound arguments for both systems, and alot of very nice tanks run reactors (most), so don't rely solely on some of these posts IMHO.
  15. Nice tank Jettin, look forward to seeing it mature.
  16. Big pump not yet arrived, reef says tunze has technical problems?? - not sure what that means. Any word from Tunze yet Reef???. Would still really like one of those pumps.
  17. Good one wasp, thats exactly what I was going to do on the new tank, having a spare peri pump now that i bought the tunze auto top up unit. Good to know.

    sea salt

    put it in your salt shaker and on your chips . Better to get NSW, than use this.
  19. 6200's here now, hoping to get them picked up from Hollywoods this week, the recirc pump still waiting on update, Reef reckons should be close to being shipped. Tank progress going well, start fishroom downstairs this week.
  20. I agree Wasp, there are some stunning softie and LPS tanks around, as good looking as any acro tanks. Some people, Reef, cracker, yourself manage to keep nice examples of all 3 types, but there requirements in most cases seem too incompatable.
  21. Acros boring??, to some maybe. Can understand it if someone has achieved with acros themselves, as opposed to looking at photos of others.
