Not I - don't need it. I have some hair algae in the tank, but I'm not concerned about it, it will cycle out. It was there before I started AF.

Anyone know where to find slip x slip SCH80 ball valves? The grey ones with the red handle. I don't want true union ball valves - they take up too much space. I need (1) 1" or (1) 3/4" and (3)...

Pat, what's wrong with your SWC? I don't think any of the skimmers you listed would outperform the SWC Cone. Those skimmers are beasts. If anything, just buy a new pump for it, and use the old one...

I have 2L of Siporax in my sump. I only have 28 lbs of live rock in my tank because I used branch rock, so I think the Siporax helps in my case. I'm not sure it is even beneficial in many cases.

For LPS and mixed reef tanks, I personally think you're better off just using the 3-part (either dry or liquid), and not much else. All the micros and foods are more geared towards high-demand SPS...

There are also vitamins and aminos too. I used one bucket of probiotic and now trying out a bucket of regular reef salt.

That's better. What happens if you hit it with a jet of water, like with a turkey baster? When you pick it off the rock will it burst like a balloon if you squish it between your fingers? Is it...
