Bills Crystal Dynamic Aquarium 225 gal tank upgrade

Tested parameters this weekend and my N03 is at 38.5 and my P04 is at .05. I dosed another 70ml of NeoPhos to raise my P04 to help get rid of the N03. The N03 is slowly coming down thankfully, BUT, doing 8 gal AWC daily is costing me a little bit...LOL!!!

@Adam, I was told you have a 525 gal tank. I will need to rehome 2 tangs in a few years, are you interested. Like I said, we are talking down the road, but, I would like for them to go to a good home. They are a D. Sailfin tang and a True Blonde Naso tang. All my fish have either been fully QT'd by me, or bought from TSM Aquatics, so diseases are a none factor.

I'd be happy to take them if I have the space. I currently have both of those that are full grown, well the Naso isn't a Blonde, plus a regular Sailfin. All three are at or over 1' in length and were in a 210 for 5-6 years together up until this past April.

Let's talk when they're getting too big for your system and we'll see how things are going in mine at that time. We've got several years... ;)

At a 1' length, I would love to see them. My gosh they must be a sight to see.

I don't want to clog your build thread with stuff about my tank. If you're ever up on this side of town you're more than welcome to stop by and see them for yourself. I'd also be happy to do a little Zoom chat with you. Shoot me a PM.
 
This is about as best of a photo as I have taken of a coral and it not be total photo foolary. These are are my Blasto corals. This is with my Samsung S20+ with no lense.

Though they are not always great photos, but, they are photos none the less. I am still working on my photography, and, probably will be until the the day...well!!!

Photos are with no filter on my Samsung S20+. Trying to actually figure out the camera...UGH!!! ;Hilarious

I think I need to call FedEx and make sure them delivering a package to my house in not a inconvenience to them. I mean, I wouldn't want to inconvenience them, maybe I should go to the FedEx store and pick it up to make it easier on them. I wouldn't want them to take a chance and possibly sprain something or pull a muscle lifting my Trident.

LOL...Its my wrasses that actually pose. They come up to me and are like, can you take a photo of me...LOL!!!
 
Since my so called fellow Mods ticked me off on R2R , I will be here for a bit.

Even with FedEx's inconsistency, I received my Temp Trident today. I installed it and I am currently doing a prime of all pumps on the Trident. So after I will do a test of the Trident. I can't calibrate it for a week, but, I will still do some test.

There's pros and cons to both ways of doing forums. The thing with R2R is they're so big that people get fat heads. I think Rev has lost his focus some, maybe a lot. Money & greed is the root of all evil. You'd think a preacher would know that. That's just an outside observation.
I don't think our all volunteer way of doing things is going to be sustainable either though.

I thought you switched over to GHL. What are you using the Apex gear on?

I am switching, but doing a side by side comparison of both at the same time. I thought BRS would do one, but now, even if they did would you trust it.
 
I feel I know the reasons why, but, I will give Neptune the benefit of the doubt. It turns out that Neptune didn't send me a temp Trident, they sent me a new replacement Trident, I just need to send my original one back.

The funny thing is, my fellow Mods ticked me off over a GHL thread...LOL!!!

When I say Mods, its not actually the Mods, its the Admins that ticked me off. Their are only 3...HMMM!!!

I'm guessing the initials of one of the three are RH.
 
I've only spoken with him once. Was nice enough at the time.

As far as I know we have not had any issues but he no longer responds to PM's or emails.
