What is that pic...not the 1250??

 

[hedgedrew]

Yup. One side. All coral died and we restocking. Was fowlr for while

 

[007Bond]

Wow sorry to hear!...what happened Drew,...it was 6-2014 TOTM. I didn't know you had a crash ---Rick

 

[hedgedrew]

Rick. Stn bleach out of acro only. Was a salt change we think combined with a biopellet reactor we added that didn't divanything to nitrate level anyway. So maybe vodka vinegar plus bio pellets too much carbon but I saw no nitrate change. And I have sneaky feeling red sea blue bucket salt fried stuff. Back to ESV new formula now.

Sde. Think I can qt 20 large Achilles tangs in there ? Lol.

I'll have to check if it is ok with my Clownfish, but he seems pretty friendly I'm sure he'll let them join. :bum:

 

[007Bond]

Was reading Tom's(TMZ) thread on carbon dosing,...guy just had his SPS go rtn that he blames on carbon dosing but his skimmer stopped working also. Kind of interesting,...I've used vinegar for a few years without problems. Not sure if you throw biopellets into the mix? You know far more than me.

 

[hedgedrew]

Next tank I'm doing sulfur denigrators. No more of this

 

[007Bond]

I'll be following,... can't wait to see all the equipment you choose for your new build!

 

[hedgedrew]

Rick I would have cut back on vodka vinegar as nitrate dropped. But never happened. So maybe it was salt change or combo

 

[007Bond]

I'm sure you don't want to go down that road again.

Hedge drew Have u used the sulfer reactors b4 ? U gonna use on the 30k tank? I've never had luck with carbon dosing and acros either and tried every which way except the natrureef reactors considering trying it

Yes in at least one. Maybe both I will try sulfur reactor. I'm done with carbon dosing.
