Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
Anybody have any idea where I can buy a part for a Tidal 110 and make it a three stage filtration system, so I can keep carbon, chaeto and something like purigen etc.

What part do you need?
 
An addition to the basket. Like 3 dividers. I've looked everywhere.
I don't think it works like that. I don't see how to add a piece to do what you want, and what if you buy another one and adapt it for what you want and use both?

Possibly, I'm gonna hook up the green killer today, hopefully it'll kill GHA spores. Basically what I'm trying to do is have better organization of my filter. If I put in a smaller filter I'm afriad it'd be way to much pressure on the back panel as I've already got my skimmer and filter back there. And even if I did but another filter specifically for chaeto it wouldn't be doing as much as the tidal I guess.

Good song John. Shanghai on background. I lived in China for 3y bring back memories.
I'd love to go to China Remi! How amazing. I'd love to talk to you about it. Sounds like a good #Smorgasbordafterdark topic to me!
 
As we usually do we did the traditional replication of the last dinner. Ham, green bean casserole, cheesey potatoes and green onions.
