Those parameters are not bad at all. As far as the Mg goes I'm not sure I'd even bother raising it, 1300 is already not bad.

Pretty much anything we add to the tank is going to have some effect on...

Are you using the low-range Phosphorous checker that reports in ppb? If so then to convert to phosphate first multiply by 3.066 then divide by 1000. (Nice and intuitive, no?)

But if it says ppm on...

Well interestingly enough I've been wanting to try the Mitras over my tank too just to see how they could compare. So far, most LED's on the market are marketed as (or "touted as") replacements for...

I have a Canon D10 which is obsolete now but replaced by a D20 (which is smaller than the D10 and does HD video which are both nice things to have). What attracted me to the D10 was that unlike most...

Not to get onto it too much, but I could write an essay about what is wrong with that. The reality is that the needs of the population are not going to go away and the "solution" as it were, is not...

Don't know about red turf but caulerpa and valonia totally disappeared after I added one. The best part was that them eating that stuff encourages the tangs to eat it because the tangs don't want to...

I've had both virgatus and doliatus rabbit in with LPS, SPS, clams and anemones (no rics or zoas though), and no issues.

I have heard they can be hit or miss, but so far that hasn't been my...

I can't do FTS photos. I try, but they end up being very out of focus with no real discernible details. I thought maybe I could try a panoramic/stitch once, but after cropping and resizing it ended...

I've been using a Vertex UF-20 for a couple years now and it seems to do well. At least I never need to do anything with it other than add pellets every 6 months or so.
