    seems like a expensive was to remove algae.
  3. I wonder if anyone has a bright green monti cap in the last pic. Could be using t5s as that can give you false colours
  4. My ph swings between 7.9 &8.3 , assuming the Ph meter is correct.
  5. oh , another trade me set up.

    tangs together

    get another yellow and they will kill each other, powder blue might be ok. not sure if it is a good idea to risk such a fish yet as you tank is still new. If adding another yellow then you should remove your current yellow for a few days and add them at the same time. Some other nice tangs are dejardin tank, yellow eye tang, atlantic blue tang, powder brown tang.
  13. That is a totally awesome pic.
  14. Havent seen the par rating of then but would think they would be pretty low. are they made in china.
  15. Whilst most calcium reactor allow for a ph probe it is pretty useless as you have to calibrate them all the time. best just to check the output once a month.
  16. a 65ook iwasaki bulb is not cheap.
  17. Reactor need about a ph of 6.5 inside to break the media down. Too much co2 and ph drops to low causing media to dissolve too quickly.
  18. Fluidized is when the media moves a little around the reactor, thus giving better contact and even ph, you don’t get any channelling. If water moves to slowly in a reactor the media will turn to dust and cause blocking. Reactor new about a ph on 6.5 inside to break the media down. to much co2 and ph drop to low.
