  1. I almost don't believe it! You're doing the exact thing I'm doing and almost the same TDS values I'm getting and I have to replace DI every 7-8 months with no water changes, just top off.What TDS meter are you using? Like Gigem posted, what prefilters?
  2. A local Cabinet Company. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Man, sometimes I wish I had your tank budget! Looks awesome!
  3. Looks sharp Juiceman! Who'd you get to make the panels?
  4. That looks painful... Like watching water boil.
  5. Mine sprouted the "antenna" in the sump in really fast flow.
  6. Big boy is back in the tank. I wanted to let the smaller angels and tangs get acclimated before releasing him back in. He's grown quite a bit in the tub... Looks like a manatee swimming in my tank. He also went back to his echinata snacking ways. He took 2 or 3 small nibbles off my colony.
  7. Pacific east aquaculture has some Aussie colonies in stock now as well.
  8. Just take it as a sign and get rid of all your LPS. The reef gods want you all SPS.
  9. And Unique is having a wysiwyg 15% off sale today and tomorrow. Use code: SHSUC15 at checkout Sunday and Monday ONLY! 15% OFF all Livestock
  10. Just Reef got some in last week. http://www.austinreefclub.com/index.php?/topic/37680-Holy-acros! Unique corals has plenty and vividaquariums sometimes has them in your wysiwyg section.
  11. Hey, it costs a lot of money to convert it to cheap plastic and paint it orange! [emoji12]
  12. It's the phone, not me. I'm just the dummy who pushes the snap picture button. I think keeping the ISO low is key as it reduces artifacts in the picture for a nice crisp look. I just adjust the shutter speed to compensate for the darker images. It has a great manual mode on the camera to let you tweak settings. I'll stop talking like I know what I'm doing now. [emoji4] Very cool! I get it. I get lazy and rely on auto. For every 100 shots I use about 5 for my greeting cards and out of those maybe one or two for a canvas print. Maybe I'm burned out, or just entirely too picky. Although my tank has inspired a whole new facet to explore. Time to stock up on sd cards!Sent from Sissy's phone I forget you do photography! I must have sounded like a chimp to you in the earlier post. Awww... Look at this guy... Bless his heart... He's trying. [emoji12]
  13. Guess I'm selling my Cerebra! [emoji4]
  14. I'd look into doing a full cleaning of your RO/DI setup. It sounds like bacterial bio-fouling to me. Resin shouldn't leach back into the water. As I think about it, you were complaining about your top off water tub smelling a few years back. I'd look up the best way to clean a RO/DI setup and maybe hit that up this weekend.

  16. While not my fastest grower, here's a time-lapse collage of my RCA Baton Rouge growing and also coloring back up since I added the fish back in.
  17. It's from all those buckets I carry for water changes. [emoji12] There's other things you can spend your money on other than cell phones and tank stuff? [emoji15]
  18. Haven't been able to play much with the tank lately because I've been swamped with work but I did finally get a Samsung Note7 replacement... Say hello to my new LG V20, my 3rd new phone in 2 months. [emoji19] I got to test out the camera tonight. I'm pretty happy with the results.
  19. There were still plenty of good ones when I left.
  20. I'll post of picture of what that pink/blue mille will probably turn into. I picked one up exactly like that awhile ago.
  21. Hey, you're spoiling the surprise for my Christmas present man. You weren't supposed to let me see it early!
