00W's AIO Smorgasbord

Here it is without the floating bags. I need to get a black background for it but I keep forgetting to pick one up.

Dagobah!!!

I checked all the magnets in my tank and I didn’t see any that are rusted, the only thing that is rusted is that metal clamp on the return pump and it is not under the water and when it goes under water it’s only under for 30 minutes each week.

Also do I really need to test for nitrate and phosphate in the LFS water? I thought you have to test for other things in the water? What does the RODI unit remove? Because it may not be removing the bad stuff

Here’s the torch coral I got the other day.

Have you ever given them shrimp sticks?

I have! I'm currently out and need to order more but they love them. Right now I rotate between Sera shrimp food and Hikari crab cuisine. Usually only feed twice a week.

Good morning everyone!
Happy Friday!
How we doing?

@Remi So sorry my friend!

Take some pictures; in some cases, you have to cut dead part, in other cases, you let heal. The experts will help in the morning.

More importantly, are the coral frags attached to aquascape or on a frag rack? You will need to secure better, or it will continue to happen.

There are really good videos on how to secure frags to scape I can send you.

Also, some frag racks really secure the plug in it; however quite a few brands don’t.

I rarely cut the dead off. Occasionally, if I can, I'll cut live off and make a frag with no dead on it, but I always leave the dead in just in case it comes back. I had a Fascination Favia 4 years ago or so that looked similar to yours at one point. It later grew back and tripled in size.

Yes junior test LFS water for whatever you can so we can either say yes, it sucks or move on to something else.

What exactly does an RODI unit remove from the water?

Everything.

Everything.

Yeah that’s what I thought but I can’t test for everything lol

You can test for what you can then ask them to see the TDS frome their water. ;) See what that answer is.

Scully in da house! Grew up to that voice on the radio. Yes young ones, a transistor radio that you put up to your ear while watching the game in the stadium!

Or on your back porch with a big slice of watermelon; spitting the seeds at your little brothers!!!

See, the experts just know!

Ok so I should ask them what the TDS of their water is

Highly recommend you watch this.

TDS is the main thing you'd test RODI for.
