  2. Question for all Sea Swirl owners

    I have two 3/4'' models that are defective and need to be repaired. I want to find out from those of you who had sent one out for repair, where to send it to, how reliable was the repair and how much did it cost? Also, has anyone tried to open one up and do the repair themself?
  3. Sea Swirl not moving

    My 3/4" model Sea Swirl is not working properly. It's about 2 years old and I noticed the problem 2 days ago. Has anyone try to open one up? Is it repairable?

    Thank You for the replies. I calibrated the probe for the Ph monitor carefully but I was having doubts after see the readings.
  5. ? on PH values

    I just bought a Ph Monitor and I am getting a Ph reading of 6 on my RO-DI water. Is that a normal reading for RO-DI water? I am thinking a reading of 7, which is neutral, is more of a normal reading.
  6. Floss for filter

    Where could I get these white stuff besides going to a LFS? These are probably the same stuff that is in pillows, or use as Xmas decorations. Anyone tried Walmart or Arts and Crafts stores?
  7. Solenoid Valve

    I don't quite understand the need for this device. If there is a power failure, the water from the calcium reactor would stop feeding to the tank would it not? If the reactor is stop, there would be no excessive CO2 going to the main tank. The CO2 would still be going to the bubble counter...
  8. Tunze Calcium Reactor

    This is the least expensive one I could find. http://www.tunze.com/usa/en-gb/dept_112.html I want to find out if this is a good one to buy. Does anyone have problems with this reactor? I have a 120 gal tank and this one is rated up to 270 gal.
  9. bubbles all over!

    I had red slime algae and those green bubble ones too. My friend recommended me to use the Coralife Marine Clarifier. It worked. All the stuffs are gone now. You wouldn't know an immediate difference but it took about 4 to 6 week in my tank. I used about 2 16oz bottles. Now I haven't use...
  10. Copper in reef tank?

    I found out this morning that my fan dropped in the sump last night and tripped the GFI. So the fan was in the water the whole night. I took the fan out and turned the circuit back on and then realized there are copper wires inside the fan. I quickly put a bag of charcoal in the tank. Would...
  11. How to catch a clown

    Thank you all for the ideas. This fish is still too shy to come up when I am putting food in the tank. I will try to get it out ASAP because I don't want it to cause a lot of stress to the others.
  12. How to catch a clown

    I just bought a Clarkii and it only been in my reef tank for 1 week. The fish is about 2 inches long and it is acting too aggressive towards other fishes in the tank, especially to the coral beauty. I tried this morning when the lights were off but no luck. Does anyone have any experience...
  13. Turboflotor 1000

    My skimmer started to have the same problem about 3 months ago. I took the pump out and cleaned the inside and the venteri air intake. Once a week I use a cup of RO water and heat it up to boiling point in the microwave, and I use the hot water to clean the air intake by placing the air intake...
  14. question with light

    Try putting the 2 old ones in. If they work and it wouldn't work with the new tubes then it could be the ballast. This happened to me when I bought new tubes and the old ballast would not work. I then decided to buy electronic ballast(cost a bit more but worth it- instant start) and it works...
  15. sps frag

    I have one (don't remember the name but it has a blue tip) that has double in length since I got it. The problem is it's only one branch and it's growing longer but not branching out. Is there a way to make it grow other branches?
