Hi all I’ve recently noticed small white particles in my tank floating around don’t think it’s air bubbles but could be wrong any suggestions on what it could be and how to fix cheers

Any advice as I feel like I’m fighting a loosing battle…. As you can see from the pictures I have a pretty bad GHA problem. It has been like this for a few months now (maybe longer) I’m picking out clumps weekly but it just keeps growing back, most of it is to small to grab with my fingers and...

So i have an aquarium that's been running for almost 4 years now and since a few months in we noticed there was a silicate issue, We used to get our RO from someone who maintained the tank but we bought a brand new RO machine that runs off a softner. We tested this with an ICP and came back to...

A year ago, a fire broke out in my room due to a faulty eheim 300 watt heater (never buying again) combined with a 70 year old electical system that is older than my grandma and as a result, i was grounded, but most regrettably i was forced to give away my 55 gallon saltwater tank. My lightning...

Hey everyone, I'm trying to see how many have ran vectra l2 pumps externally and if you had issues with leaking. Current situation is my first l2 started making a noise so I contacted ecotech and they asked me to pull the pump apart and clean it. I did as was asked but then spent 4 hours...

I bought a Red Sea ATO upgrade kit about 10 days ago. Installed in my Reefer 350, got erratic behavior - inconsistent fills between 0.05 gallons per fill (which would be the expected top off volume per fill given 25x25 return chamber and 3 mm between sensors), up to 0.8 gallons per fill with...

I need some help I set my aqua knight v2 light based off the instructions and videos I watched (watched the setup guide from fragbox) and it was working fine for a few days I went to try and change the settings but it’s not saving them anymore just resorting back to the previous and it’s also...

Hello everyone! So my story begins with the first DOS & DDR Dosing System Package that I purchased around 6 years ago. And then I couldn't do anything; my unit was always with bubbles in the airline and draining back into the container. I have the Check Valves installed at the end of each...

Im fairly new to saltwater and corals, i believe this is a toadstool leather but can someone tell me what this is growing from it?

I am getting frustrated and thought I'd ask the forum if I am alone since @Tim at EcoTech says there are "no bugs" in their current firmware or software. First of all, anyone in the business of writing code would never honestly make a statement like that. There are ALWAYS bugs! . Plus, I...

So this is my second post apex related but so far nothing but issues with this whole thing, I have three different things plugged into my power bar but the power log does not show anything all it shows is the volts from the power bar, it has never shown anything ever and I have had it for almost...

Hello Everyone, I thought I would come here to open up a discussion on accessories you cannot readily purchase, that leave you thinking, "If only I had a 3D printer". I have been involved with 3D printing for some time now and recently took it towards creating products for reefing. I am always...
