Shallow Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Not much is wrong, aside from some bubble algea. Plus I think there isn't enough flow for sps, as of now. Me being how I am, I want everything to be prestine. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 Got back from our mini vacation yesterday. I had to draw an extensive diagram to show our tank sitter, my grandma, how to top off our tanks. Everything was good when we got back. Link to comment
iball1804 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Great! Glad everything's safe. How's the car? Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 It's going very slow, but after the big hurdles it'll go fast. In terms of getting it put back together. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 While doing a water change I noticed that my green birdsnest has a little patch of white kinds of in the middle. I'm scared it has been growing like crazy and has at least doubled in size since I got it. And when all of the polyps are out, they are greener than can be. I accidentally skipped a water change last week, so I just did one and I'll see how it is in the morning. Link to comment

Rehype Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Check out tunze they make exceptional powerheads. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Thanks hype, but one more thing if ya don't mind, gph wise, how big of a powerheads should I get. Link to comment
Rehype Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I would suggest the tunze 6045..its adjustable from 396 to 1,118 gph. Link to comment
iball1804 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Crazy adjustment. Also try the Hydor AquaClear powerheads (not the filters). Link to comment
iball1804 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I've got the AQ 30 and the output is nuts. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I think the tunze 6025 might fit my budget and my needs. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Just ordered the tunze 6025 Link to comment
GiantBen Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Just ordered the tunze 6025 I'll be interested to se how you like it. I have two 6045s showing up for my shallow today. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Sweet. I haven't had tunze before but they look like are good quality, and the swivel is pretty cool. Link to comment
GiantBen Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Sweet. I haven't had tunze before but they look like are good quality, and the swivel is pretty cool. You'll be shocked how strong the 6025 is. I had two in my 60 shallow and was blown away. Long story short, they were super noisy so I sent them back (they were an older model). The 6045s are adjustable, so I'm going to try and have them be the only pumps in my tank. Link to comment
Shallow Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 I hope my powerhead comes quick. My birdsnest looks like crap. Link to comment
