  4. 2.5 gallon reef at new home

    I thought I would share a few pictures of my small tank with some before and after pictures. I broke down my 65 g reef some time ago, (and for the mean time) (before I get a larger tank in the wall) (in the house that I dont have) I keep this small system.

  5. G.F.O question....

    Hey everyone,

    I've been running the Bulk Reef Supply Pelletized GFO in my BRS Reactor for about 3 weeks now...since then I've noticed that my ball of chaeto in my refugium hasn't been growing, and today I gave it a good shake and it was very soft and stringy instead of the usual dense "crunchyness" if you know what I mean. Any ideas? Could the GFO be having a negative effect on the Chaeto?
