sps 1250 gallon system

Its very long. It has all the typical arguments on new thoughts/ideas. If you don't feel like the entire read, do first 10 pages to see what its about, then jump to last 10. I'm going to use it. Gary has the best input in my opinion. On large systems it seems to be a good answer. Its for phosphate removal in swimming pools. Follow Gary's input/directions.

In Gary's thread, (I think the pioneer) his input and different guys like Tom "tmz" have pretty solid reputations, I usually give their postings serious consideration.

Hey Andrew, where do you get your fish from, you ever get anything from NY Aquatic. I was getting my large puffers (Mappa, Guineafowl, Panda) various wrasses, and others from him.

rick thats the store by the linclon tunnel? i used to use them lots for acro but they seemed to tank down the large acro tank and be focusing on other things . i have a few peices from their main display that they sold me . havnt bought fish in while there not much room left so been focusing on rares like clarions and white black banded angels both of which i had in tank and died from either flukes or bacterial infections . once these fish get sick its impossible to get them out they dont feed so cant trap and they dive into the rock work so its ashes to ashes im still looking for those 2 and a small conspic

I can't imagine trying to catch a fish in your tank! When I had mine stuffed with fish, I'd stick a net in and the whole tank would go empty. I seen your Gem Tang in the video. Cool!

Ya hes huge now and i have a baby one in frag tank in equipment room we tried to film. Have small juvey french that had bad eye pop out and cloud. Hes in hospiital also. 2x doses with prazzi and eye is clear. Amazing. Must have had fluke breakouts in some of these angel deaths

Rick. Youbsee someone on reef chem forum is loosing his whole tank from lacl. All fisg dropping. Sounds great! He must have dosed too much or not diluted enough

 

[007Bond]

Sounds like you read the whole thread. Ya one or both, to heavy or to fast. I know Gary has advised through out his thread... go slow and dilute. I would follow his advice/ formula to the T. That said the thread has been up since 2008 and still going, with many success stories.

Those Gem's not cheap to keep around. I used to have all the Florida angles flown up from the keys. French, Blue, Grey, Queen's. Always liked opening those boxes.

That NYAquatic says their in Yonkers. Same place?

 

[hedgedrew]

Just had a small queen in tank doing great one day eating like pig and poof found him dead Looked like a rock fell on him. Last few months i lost plenty of angels. Store i was referring is in nyc.
