Elizabeth94 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Shoot- do you have a backup for the return pump? This happened to me with my last tank around Christmas time. It was a disaster. Quote Link to comment

It was a disaster. i'm using the vortech power supply right now and dropped the flow to abut 30% to avoid blowing up this power supply. new one should come tomorrow. I'm going to get another vectra at some point 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe mg levels? id also think that after a year my rocks would be more covered but it seems like it never wants to grow on those surfaces… Quote Link to comment

TheKleinReef Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 WWC called me, apparently they double listed that golden dragon and there wasn't actually one available. he gave me some options. I asked if he could just swap it out for something roughly the same value in that same color scheme. He said that'd be fine. So i'm not sure what's coming lol. the other 4 are though. 2 Quote Link to comment
