  1. Acrylic tank question

    I filled it with water outside to test it and the top seems to hold fine but there is obvious bowing in the middle of the front and back panes.... Is this normal for acrylic? Never owned one but assume since its plastic ...

  2. reducing Ph

    does anyone have some suggestions for reducing my Ph, it's 8.9-9.1 comming from my tap water. it's already killed all of my anemones. would a calcium reactor help to keep it down. i don't want to have to keep dumping chemical in the water if i don't have to, but i'm stumped at what to do. obviously more water changes don't help. thanks
