Hi there, I currently have a 90 gallon tank. I run a 951GPH Sicce return pump. I have a manifold on my tank and was hoping to piggy back the bio reactor off the return. Would this be enough pressure. I currently run my UV sterilizer and GFO reactor off it now, thanks.

We're all here cause we're not all there.
What's up everybody? I've been in this hobby for a few years now. I've done fresh, I've done salt. I like salt and there's more pretty things for the tank. I've got a 55 gallon sumpless, with a reef octopus BH100 HOB skimmer, 4 power circulation and a cascade canister filter and two TaoTronics White/ Blue LED lighting. Here's a pic while only the blues were on today. Hope I can contribute as well as gain experience.

Was wondering if anyone knows what these are.if they are aiptasia sorry for the dumb question they just look a little different than the aiptasia I have seen
Hello I'm Lauren hope to get some friendly advice here!
:wavey:
Hi I'm Lauren,
Glad to be part of the reefing community! Im 30 live in london and have been into marine fish keeping for years! I finally got given a tank for xmas in 2015 and now spend my days researching online and watching you tube for the best advice for my tank and hopefully future larger tanks-Current dream getting the new Red sea reefer nano cube!! I love cube systems.
I have a 48litre/12 gallon nano cube. All in one system by interpet (River reef)
IN THE BACK-Eheim nano skimmer 350 (added), Fluval Carbon bag, Fluval clear max Phosphate control bag , Biochemicial cubes to store good bacteria (came with the tank) Large foam pad, Filter floss pad. Pump which came with the tank which is not great for water flow...
DISPLAY TANK- x1 Nano hydor powerhead
ROCK & SAND- Real Rock, Carib sea pink Live sand,
CORALS-Xiena, toadstool leather, Africian tree, ricordia
FISH- Tomato clown, Blue/Green Chromis,
INTERVERT - Cleaner shrimp, bumble bee snails, hermit crabs, a lovely selection of bristle worms !
MAINTENANCE- 25 % water change weekly. Aquarium system Reef salts-Normally a water change on Sunday nights
DOSING- Currently dosing with Red sea Foundation elements for Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity
Only just started testing Potassium, Iodine and Iron with the Red sea test kits.
FEEDING- I use marine cuisine frozen food and Hikari dry food
CURRENT PARAMETERS-
(2days after water change )
Temp- 28'c
Salinity- 1.025
PH- 8.2
Ammonia-0
Nitrite-0
Nitrate-0
Calcium-450
Alkanity-3.1/8.7
Magnesium- 1090
Potassium- 320
Iodine- 0.09
Iron- 0.15
PROBLEMS- My magnesium levels always seem to be really low ! I have been logging all parameters weekly so i can see what my levels are doing (CA, MG, DKH). I dont really want to do a water change twice weekly so have been topping up my supplements. However always seems to be low on magnesium! I dont understand why i sem to be buying bottles of magnesium and having to dose 80-100ml weekly. I am just trying to determine if i dose a little bit of ach weekly this can stop the swings in magnesium-ANY ADVICE WILL BE GREAT!
-Another problem my coral seem to be light pink brown, hence the reason why i will be starting with the red sea colour care program.. Below I have put a link of one of my favourite tanks from nanoreef.com that I aspire to http://ift.tt/2kWKwMa.
Hoping i can get some helpful advice here to help me succeed with my tank!

Macro lighting optimum light.
One of my maxspec is going it a 10 000K for my display refugium. its going to fail soon. I have another one that's still working perfectly.


Now my problem is to replace that one with the best light possible. Masxpect doesn't make those anymore. Its all 15K.
Do you have a light suggestion for me a brand or type that's between 6 000k and 10 000K thanks.

Winter Wednesday
Morning everyone. Light snow this morning in Boston, which should not interfere with my six block commute too much.
Hope everyone has a nice day. Got a little four cup machine in my hotel, so coffee is only for an early riser then I am out.
Enjoy your hump day. :beer:
