I usually check my nitrate level every week, and yes, it's at th right level.

Often it is hard to get an accurate reading of the phosphate level in a tank with algae present because the algae is using the PO4 to grow, thus removing it from the water. You could have a reading of 0, yet still have a tank covered in algae because it is thriving and growing off of any available nutrients. I hope I'm making sense here. Also, where do you get your water from Nano?


On that note...Happy Friday the 13th! Good luck today all superstitious people.

A 7th grader in my school system was shot in the head with a rifle by his friend. Accidental. They were playing with it. Just got back from the wake.

i have a feeling media, and music have a giant part in the influenceing of people, especially those who are young... JMHO but i mean think about what little kids are listening to on the radio, its plays part in both rap and rock(im not just saying rap is bad, the both can have the bad points, but IMHO rap is worse)

So, on the right is a 25" x 12" frag (sps) shelf, its (mostly)hidden by the LR. on that LR are some sps frags attached, as these grow out a bit, the shelf will only be visible from the top!

I use the shelf for damaged/new sps and also frags for trading.

Cheers Josh

OK, Onequick flow question

just 1 6060 tunze stream $127.03? or

2 of the Seios. $149.99
http://www.marinedepot.com/md_viewIt...product=TA3717

Which would be the best option?

with the seios i would have a flow rate of appox. 3830
with the 1 tunze i would have a flow of appox. 2430

Any input, or possibly new suggestions would be apprecitated.
Also, which setup would be more obstuctive?

I have toyed around with the idea of a closed loop with 900 coming from each of 3 nozzles (loc-line) however, the cost would be increased a more than i would like.
