  1. looks like a combo of vermetids and abiotic calcium precipitation.
  2. same thing as seachem aquavitro salinity, suffers from too many brand names.
  3. they are different, they have at least 1 more chamber filled with deionization beads. They generally also have a TDS meter inline, with a flush valve for the RO membrane, if the kit is an good.
  4. Been using seachem aquavitro salinity. no gripes, and the bucket is awesome (has some sort of zip close/button to open). It is pretty expensive though, I bought mine at aquatek. I'm switching to RCSP just for fun when this bucket is out, because god forbid i keep something constant
  5. I've been pooping in my tank for about a year now, and the corals and visitors to my house are not impressed.
  6. I'm not sure what your final stocking list is going to look like, but if you're going to go heavy on the SPS, you might want to consider the economics of calcium reactors vs dosing for a tank of your volume. http://www.reefkeeping.com/joomla/index.php/current-issue/article/44-calcium-reactors-in-out-and-everything-in-between-part-1
  7. I'm not sure that the reduction in pH swing is a positive change per se. It seems to me that it could be interpreted as a reduction in the overall photosynthesis, which to me could be tied to less usable light making it through, OR reduced biologic activity from reduction in temperature. It's probably related to the mid-day cut, but we won't be able to make a full comparison until you have your photoperiod equalized. Cool data nonetheless!
  8. there is a group buy for BRS going right now, might be able to get a discount and free shipping.
  9. Im pretty sure we all know who you're talking about.....
  10. VDMs are not compatible, but you can apparently use the older aquasurf module to achieve the same goal, with a few more intermediate steps: http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1846903

    Just cruise the "free" section here. Stuff pops up fairly regularly.
  12. The only thing I can think of that is sexier is 9 valves.
  13. It's different in coloration. Polyps are very light blue or white.
  14. Can you not just set a timer on you apex to turn on for x seconds using 2 outlets to mimic the osc function ?
  15. Are you trying to save an outlet ? You can always individually program them right ?
