Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

[Katrina71]

The controller for my jebao return pump s**t the bed after using feed mode 3 or 4 times.
Now it's on or off only.

Probably a blessing. Your little guys respond better when ya just leave it on anyhow.

Not that I am watching my remaining acros like a hawk or anything! ;)

My uppity fish won't eat with it on ;Smuggrin
Super easy to turn on/off with apex

Did y'all see the decision to ban not selling trident above retail on here? I support it. Curious what y'all think?

Honestly, it is sad they had to do it. Would not expect that here.

SUPER spoiled bratty fish!

I think it should have been done from the beginning, it's a little late in the game now to be doing it but at least they made some kind of effort. What REALLY Pi**ed me off was what BRS did to those on the wait list, would have been nice if R2R had have stepped up and talked BRS out of it.

Agreed. Apex is too expensive, no deals anywhere either.

Just looking at the pic I knew who took it

 

[JoshH]

What did they do?

All those waiting patiently in line for there Tridents on BRS' list all got an email saying BRS was cancelling the list and they would all have to just fight over them when they were posted as in stock. (Not those exact words, but same result)

[Why-Me]

Agree with the price ban.
Shouldn't have to come to this.
Personally I've seen a post on the local reefing forum of over $800 for a Trident....or he'd sell on ebay.
Agree Neptune products are expensive but I have no complaints, they work and are accurate!!
Ya get what ya pay for unfortunately it's just a tad much but if you do consider the $$ already spent on the box of water in your living room, might as well have that peace of mind...or at least my opinion anyways.
I know you can be successful reefer without an Apex but, it does help.

I bought a used Apex Lite for $200 or $250 something like that and it has saved my bacon once already.

Did any of us get someone we know on Elfster?

Wait... are you supposed to turn off your pumps while feeding fish?

 

[Why-Me]

When we went from summer to fall and got cold overnight my tank temp dropped from 78 to 76...I had to crank up the heater to max temp to keep my tank the correct temp overnight.
6 weeks later same thing happens except as I said the heater is maxed out so I had to buy the next size larger heater.
Apex alerted me both times my temp dropped too low.
BTW; I threw a second heater in until my larger heater arrived.

Just get some hydra 26s, run dave saxby, and hang them 8” above the tank. That’s a steady 80 F with no heater.

I got someone who posted here once, from one of katrina's thread group's local reefing clubs but not naming who....
So someone here knows my recipient locally!!

Doesn't matter really, just a preference.
Corals prefer the flow during broadcast feeding so then it's definitely beneficial to keep it on.

I always turn them off and even my return for coral, fish have to fight each other for mysis.

I have been keeping this a secret, but I run an illegal fish fighting ring on the side.

I think if r2r ever skips Secret Santa, we should still do it.

We should do one for this group even if r2r keeps theirs.

I'd love that.
