That stuff looks positively vile. Yum yum!

Sorry to hear about the continued SPS deaths. It's a frustration I know well though, so I empathize.

Apologies if this is in an earlier page, but you do have a picture of your Ca reactor to phosban reactor to magnesium reactor setup?

I'll find a few photos of the new Ca reactor set up and post them later.

This SPS death thing has to be the tank, I can't see what else it could be. The temporary tear down is going to involve breaking down the actual tank. I may even replace it, I don't fully know yet. What I do know though is that a part of my plumbing has just sprung a slow leak, urg!

Thanks for making the seafood melody Catherine. If I had done it my kitchen would not look as neat as yours.

The tank is officially coming done, and soon.

The pump disaster from March 1st, still isn't resolved. My emails to Reeflo Plumps go unanswered, and their phone number is constantly busy. I have since reached out to a local vendor to see if they have any way of getting in touch with Reeflo. I just find this absolutely uacceptable, and this is impacting my future odds of buying Reeflo negatively.

The tank will receive some new livestock today. I am sharing in a livegoods order from Ocean Aquatics today. I will be adding in more clams to this tank. I also ordered some fish, but they are for another system, my non-nano tang & larger fish friendly tank.

FYI the information Reeflo includes with their pumps, e.g their toll free phone number is only for US residents, the correct number for Canadian residents is 719 231 2761

No progress on the pump, I finally spoke with someone and said person is telling me that their pumps don't fail, thus it must be my fault something happened. I, of course disagree and will persue the matter further, although should I see no resolution by April 15th, I will just cut my losses and move on.

That's silly. Everything fails. The Titanic went down. I bet it used Reeflo bilge pumps.
