  1. eunuching the tank sounds so old fashioned. i prefer neutering.
  2. Your setup looks very clean! Color me impressed.
  3. Have you changed your carbon lately ? Maybe it's a chemical situation ? Any new dosing since things went down hill ?
  4. I'm floating in a tube until late tonight. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  5. Im not sure on zoos, he has a little of everything, but is known for sps and chalices. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  6. I'll be back Sunday. You're welcome to one if you'll meet me at AD
  7. I might be able to do about 10 lbs worth. I need to redo part of my work to get rid of bcp.
  8. Check here. I gave a rundown on what I did. http://www.austinreefclub.com/index.php?/topic/25245-New-Apex-jr
  9. Ok, so, my reactors are set up in parrallel. I believe that asmy other reactor of purigen/GAC became clogged, that it increased flow to the GFO. Over time, it reached a threshold where it just physically pulverized itself and leaked out. The timing with the high pH/alk drop may not be causative.
  10. Reserved a table at Jack Allen's Kitchen for this friday. 8 pm.
  11. Phosban. A little over a month. I've got an alternate theory that ill post when I have a keyboard.
  12. I believe your name used to be spaceless. thus I'm using the prior nomenclature.
  13. apparently I'm not the only one... http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?p=18148428
  14. Right right, that was my presumption. Either that or supersaturation from the kalk. I was mostly curious if anyone had the same thing happen with gfo.
  15. GFO isn't a carbon source though ...
  16. Weirdest thing happening in my tank right now. I noticed high pH in my tank last night (8.5+). Today it was very cloudy. Also there is a red film over my tubing, in my filter sponge and on my mp10. It also looks like about half of the volume of my GFO reactor is gone. My alk is also low again (115 ppm). I'm not freaking out yet, as everything looks relatively happy (sps included). I think it might also be because I upped my kalk dose in addition to the vinegar I dose in the kalk. I think it's a bacterial bloom, but I can't explain the GFO film everywhere.
