Hello, ReefDVMs here. We had just been to MACNA and saw Reef2Reef booth there and thought why dont we come over here and meet everyone.

Anyways we like to see everyone's tanks and reefs and the way we have found best to show our tank and reefs to people is in simple homemade videos. Here is one, hope you guys like it, look forward to meeting people.

So like a lot of Reefers out there we don't always do it right. We are no exception, I left a little GFO and Carbon get old, then had a pump dye and hence the water didnt move for two days and I got a huge phosphate spike. We shot this video to show it and now we are working on the current video's as to how we are fixing it. I am sure others have gone through this on this large forum but this time its us.

This problem really helped us to see what works best to get rid of the phosphates, there will be one or two followup vid's on this we think for sure.

One way a person can do it, we know there are many ways but here is at least one simple way.

Once we learned what didnt work then we tried standard techs learned it our youth....maybe should have tried this sooner but one learns the hard way sometimes=)
