Thanks! I love the fusion..def a great pick-up. Im currently running the Reef Octopus Classic 90 and it fits in the back pretty well! It takes up two chambers but that really doesn't bother me. There is a picture on the 2nd page of the back of the tank! Thanks so much for following along! Link to comment

ReefWeeds Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks! I dig the 29! How's everything coming along? Good so far! Siphoned up some cyano yesterday. But it will be better once I capture the bane of my existence - the scary white fuzzy crab with red eyes!!! Your red goni is AWESOME. Link to comment
deathbyart Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 brs has some good RO units. That's where I got mine ! Did you get those jugs locally and how big are they? I am still a renter, so having a smaller setup like that would be great. Link to comment

Oh jeez that crab sounds like the devil!Did you get those jugs locally and how big are they? I am still a renter, so having a smaller setup like that would be great. My family rents too! They're called waterbricks nd they rock! Very convinient and portable and they stack very nicely. Waterbrick.org is the site I think. Link to comment

ml86743 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 Anyone have any idea why my Lobo is starting to recede? Its right in the front:( He stills puffs up and eats well! Any ideas? Link to comment
Spoon Fed EM1 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 how's the protein skimmer working for you? i'm debating whether to go with the same one as you or possibly run a larger reef octopus or aquamaxx skimmer as far as your lobo goes, i definitely won't be any help in that department since i'm fairly new to the coral world lol Link to comment

ml86743 Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Giving Acropower a shot. Heard nothing but good things! Also picked up some reefroids and LPS pellets! Link to comment
Spoon Fed EM1 Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 does lps pellets work? i feel like i give my lps pellets and they don't even bother with it at all... haha Link to comment
ml86743 Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 does lps pellets work? i feel like i give my lps pellets and they don't even bother with it at all... haha Im not sure! I haven't even tried them yet. I think Cherry Corals uses this stuff with their LPS. I hope they like it! Im more excited about the roids and acropower. Ive been reading nothing but positive reviews from both. I have a feeling my goni is gonna love the polyp lab stuff. Link to comment
ml86743 Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Tried the reef roids today and the zoas and goni LOVED it! Highly recommend this product to anybody Link to comment
deathbyart Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 How are you feeding the Reef-Roids? I watched a video and I am impressed but they said "one tea spoon for every 100 gallons"... um. I am NO where near that. Link to comment

I am NO where near that. I took a small amount and mixed it up in some tank water. I used a pipette to target feed the coral. Link to comment
