You going for the gyres?! 30% off is a good deal! I've had good luck with the Jebao SCP-150s so far. Been a year or so, but minimal maintence and easy to clean. They make flow in my frag tank ezpz.

My only complaint when I had gyres, was the thick film of cyano that grew right on top - and only there in my tank. It was a weird phenomenon, I swear. Loved the flow though... Cyano clearly did too

I was in bed by the time these came in.
I did get the 350. After spending a lot more on flights to a Texas wedding in February.

We tested the coralife with the radion and it isn't offensive, actually I kinda liked the daylight effect it offered. I will need ot be cautious with coral placement. The coralife really wont grow too much.

Low on the list is still on the list

After thinking about it, at this point it's more of a priority pile. Things only happen later because other things were put on top more recently.

science question for science people: I am curing and trying to pull po out of the rock that came with the tank, roughly 120#. But it is outside, which at present is 45 degrees. Does temp matter when I am only trying to pull po out? everything in it is dead, so that is not a concern to me. But am I slowing or stopping the leaching at these temps?
edit: what say you @Randy Holmes-Farley reef chemist?

I was talking to a friend today and I came up with a plan, while we're on the subject. I'm wondering if dosing the soaking water with high phosphates to start saturation would be beneficial. I still can't keep any phosphates for more than a day or two before it drops back to 0. I'm thinking of I saturated the new rock when I add it to the tank it may release some into the water which would help saturate the existing rock which would then allow me to start having detectable phosphates.

I'm not sure how long you'd have to soak the rock too get it bound but it could work as a continuous doser. Start a Fowler tank so you have a high nutrient system and swap out the rock every now and again.
I don't even know what the readings on the old rock are though, just assume I lost a lot in it so probably high.

The last batch soaked for a month or so in saltwater.

Mine's in fresh now, but when I get the tank in place I will scape and soak on salt till it stops being crazy or I get tired of waiting. Whichever happens first.

After much talk and many headaches (I hate selling on Facebook) the terrarium is gone to a good home. I miss it and the TV wall is now boring. But I have $250 I can put back into tanks. @tbrown3589 you now have me beat in terms of terrariums.
