Looking for basic ones or snowflake

Hello, Anyone have one of these? Considering picking up their 48x24x20 105G setup or a 60x20 setup. Just curious on everyones thoughts! I'm trying to figure out glass thickness with zero luck. Thank you.

Perfect time to upgrade to a 120G!

You might need a different flow restrictor on the waste water line out of the RO/DI since you are only doing half the GPD of the original. I've run the same membrane for 6 years now and get about 99% rejection at my 75 PSI in. What is your inbound PSI?
-
Is it hooked up right? There are guys in AZ that have water in the 600-900 TDS range and don't have issues except for burning out DI. If everything is right, I would give Spectrapure a call, they specialize in this and it might save you money over a water softener. What is your inbound water TDS?

In, but can't make the meeting.

I think I am going to go gyre, anyone have issues with the newer ones?

Hi All, Right now on my 120G I have a single QD MP40 (80% Reefcrest) and my Eheim 1262 for flow. I am thinking about changing it up, what would everyone recommend? I've always though about a Gyre since I think I could get away with only one pump which I enjoy now. I've been looked at the Octo Pulse 4 or just adding another QD MP40. I am batting a huge cyano outbreak but my SPS growth is still going great so I think it is time for more flow. Thanks!

Almost a 1.5 year update. The tank survived us being gone to the Caymans. SPS is growing very well and all the equipment is staying in one piece. A massive cyano breakout has occurred in the last 6 weeks along with other hair algae. I had it under control for quite a while then all the sudden it popped up. My maintenance didn't change so I'm confused what happened. I've never fed a lot and my nitrates when algae free was always under 1. My main goal is to keep motivated to keep the tank running this summer. With our now 7 month kiddo, the tank gets a lot of neglect in testing.

Fiji just banned coral and rock harvest.

Visit Fiji! Beautiful place. Hurricanes in the last decade or so have done a lot of damage to a few of their reefs. -
Congrats! We had our first on the 26th. I have no clue what will happen to my tank once Margo becomes mobile

Is there a jealous button?

Should have an update soon. Growth is finally taking off and algae is mostly gone.
-
Check out SC aquariums. They usually have a major Black Friday sale too. I have one and it has been great.

What are the tank dimensions?

Moving at the end of year have questions

Based on family with well water, you'll need a booster pump and you will go through more sediment filters. Most well water will have a light iron color to it. I would 100% add some support below the tank. -
I have some in fishers if needed, All IO though.

I use my blue Lowe's 5 Gallon bucket. BRS occasionally has Trigger ATO containers on sale.

Yep, I'd watch the drop over several days, then slowly raise it back up. Next thing you know, you'll want a dosing pump and then watch CA closely too.
