Got a new toy today the new MRC Nilsen Reactor
It has a built in timing mechanism, one timer when the mixing occurs and another for the length of the mix. Each timer is selectible between 10 different positions which I thought was pretty cool.
Not to mention that it holds 4 cups of Kalk

Sweet tank and sweet kalk rx. I'll have to check MRC.com to see about them.

Interesting you'll have to let us know how it works.
Is it just me or is MRC website margins all messed up?

hook up took all of 20mins and the timers are really impressive I watched a mix cycle today and it really stirs the kalk up. I will keep you updated on its performance.
Yes their website doesn't look good on my computer either it did not to long ago so maybe they messed with the settings.

LOL.. too true Jonathan
incredible tanks and shots.
We are considering adding a copperband to our tank. Any issues or regrets with yours ?
thank you, our copperband has been a model citizen but a friend of ours had one that ate zoo's and lps and finally went after his clams so he got rid of it lol

Just read through the entire thread, probably for the second or third time honestly. Simply amazing work you (both ) have done, as has been said many times before.
My only question is in regards to your "PPE" zoanthids. You posted a few months ago (Link) with a before and after shot. In my experience, the patterning is due to over exposure to high light levels. That is, the zooxanthellae has disappeared (killed, retracted; I don't know), so there is no color. What struck me as interesting was that the condition usually only shows up in child polyps; the parent colonies usually remain otherwise unchanged. Has the colony retained the dotted/splotched white pattern? Are the child polyps showing the same pattern?
Cheers,
Marty
