There is a handful of us reefers in the area. Check out 916 saltwater reef club group in facebook if you have one.

Anyone here (in the sac area) know of any place that sells Ace Roto-Mold tanks (or something similar)? I’m looking to get my RO/DI project off the ground but need to find a big (55gal) tank with a smaller footprint. A Brute bin won’t work for me.

I'm not familiar with that brand. I normally buy most of my storage tanks from Grainger though.

Does it have to be that brand? Or do they have the particular size and shape you are looking for?

No. It doesn’t have to be any specific brand. I’m looking for a vertical tank with a small footprint.

I did just read some opinions that nems like higher no3 as it is a food source for them. What kind of nem? What are your parameters.

Your numbers look good. My no3 is like at least 80 or higher. I'd have to do a huge wc. I only have 1 clown in that tank. The move might finish it off. I have a 220g that I could try to put it in, in an acclimation box as I don't want any nems in that tank. Have you asked on the forum for ideas to save it? There might be a nem forum. I could try, but want to be sure the move won't finish it off

Yea that's the risk.. I've been told my tank is just too young for a nem (was about 6 weeks old when I got him) and just trying to keep the system stable and hope for the best. But yea idk if he'd make even taking it down to the local shop. He does seem quite resiliant.. seems his recovery, if it does come to pass, could take months. Any advice? Should I just keep him in there as that may be his best chance?

Possibly the best idea. Post in a forum for nems. There are people here who specialize in them.
Yea I've done that thank you tho. Finding it a better home was suggested but seems like no matter what I do odds are against him.. this will be the biggest regret of mine during beginning this reef if he doesn't make it

Hey all! I know this is a little bit of an older thread, but I am moving to the sacramento area next month and wanted to get in touch with some reefers in the area.
