Equipment

About six months ago, I switched from the Milwaukee pH controller to the Reef Fanatic Micro pH controller. First thing I discovered was that their pH probe was a smaller diameter and required me to MacGyver a way to keep it installed in the calcium reactor.

Lately, my back pain has been so bad that I've been ignoring my reef to the point I didn't even clean the glass on the 400g and the 60g for days at a time. As the brown film amassed, I just let it go. I still checked on the calcium ...

I've had a fair amount of trouble in the tank over the last several months.In that time I lost a 5 gal pail of sps so I pulled my reactor offline as it wasn't needed. Now that things have recovered nicely and things are once again stable with frequent water changes, I'm ready to restart the calcium reactor. In the past I've had difficulty keeping the effuent flow rate consistent and have had to tweak it daily. I will be ordering the same regulator as Melev and a controller of some kind. I'm thinking ...

I don't know when I got the Dart pump that runs the 400g's return flow (from the sump), but I'm guessing 2011. Maybe it's a newer, because the serial number label doesn't match the image from back then. So maybe 2012. Last night I was working in the tank with the flow off.

Hello Reefadicts.

My name is Pedro and I am starting in this amazing world of reef tanks. I have previous experience with fresh water aquariums, but I want to change to saltwater!

The aquarium will have the following ...

What tank manufacturer would you recommend for a 90g RR tank? I am looking for glass with a center internal overflow with possibly 2 returns. I currently have a 75g Oceanic RR and want to keep the same foot print so I can use my existing stand and canopy. My current tank is 48x22x18 I believe. I have been thinking Aqueon, Marine Lane, Planet Aquariums, not sure of what else is out there. I don't live too far from the DFW area. Thanks for any help deciding.
