Your tank looks way nicer than mine these days! So at least there's that.

And actually, I can't stop looking at that squamosa. It's looking great, nice and open, good colours..

All things being equal I always thought it was clam shells and in particular snail shells that were particularly dirty with PO4 and not ideal for recycling in a calcium reactor. Otherwise though,...

All told I would not go back to a Milwaulkee reg either. Never been happy with the consistency out of the 2 I've used over the years, and reading up on it, this seems commonplace with them.

My guess is the hole is so you can retrofit a neck wiper, and thus the red cap is something you put on if you don't have that. If it were me, I would silicone it in place rather than weld-on so that...

That's my biggest fear with clams, when one goes, it seems to start a chain reaction..

I'm really sorry to hear this Mitch.

I kept that species myself for close to a decade (9 years? I think?). Over that time it was responsible for a number of tank wipeouts. The last time the...
