Hope it's over. Can't wait to see your results.

P.S. My skimmer is a DIY project, as well... seems to be a winner!

I've got a homemade skimmer it works great.  I came back to my home today to find most of the cyano was brown and some looked like it was rotting so I tore it all out.  I also added alot of Macro Algae given to me by summertop.  thanks he has three very nice tanks by the way.  So I'm hoping my cyano problem is almost over I'll post another pic in a few days.  Thanks for the help.]]> Mon, 15 Mar 2004 07:57:33 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19906&title=bacteria-or-algae#19906 <![CDATA[Bacteria or Algae : Maybe it just slipped past the...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19773&title=bacteria-or-algae#19773 Author: reptoreef

Maybe it just slipped past the eyes while scanning through the posts, but are you utilizing a protein skimmer? Phosphates can be a problem in the system, even if there is no trace from your test kit.

God did have some problems with the water in his tank.  Just ask Noah.  Afterward he made the same promise I did.  I'll never turn my back on that hose again.]]> Sat, 13 Mar 2004 14:40:04 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19761&title=bacteria-or-algae#19761 <![CDATA[Bacteria or Algae : Oh and I&#039;m stoked it is a...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19694&title=bacteria-or-algae#19694 Author: jglover

Oh and I'm stoked it is a little brown now not all red and there is some green in my sump so I'm very excited not to have all red in my new tank]]> Fri, 12 Mar 2004 11:58:03 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19694&title=bacteria-or-algae#19694 <![CDATA[Bacteria or Algae : Yall are wacko&#039;sHa Ha ]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=2050&PID=19691&title=bacteria-or-algae#19691 Author: jglover

I like that Weimers,

Maybe Venus and Mars were set up as a couple of shop vacs for the Earth.
Venus Atmospheric composition:   96.5% Carbon Dioxide (CO2), 3.5% Nitrogen (N2)
Mars Atmospheric composition:  Very thin. Carbon dioxide gas (CO2) - 95.3% and Nitrogen (N2) - 2.7%

sounds about right to me.

Hey!  how about this...
Maybe God used Mercury to do atmosphere changes (water changes)
Mercury Atmospheric composition:
42% Oxygen (O2), 29% Sodium (Na), 22% Hydrogen (H2), 6% Helium (He), 0.5% Potassium (K)
   ....well that one doesn't sound quite right.  oh well

Adam,  that reminds me of a sci-fi book I read years and years ago.  Something about the mitochondria in our cells having a collective intelligence, and that is what really ran the impulses of the host organizm.   hmmmmmmm.  Can't remember the book.  Heck I can't even be sure if that was in the story or if it is just a distorted memory from a childs understanding of the consept.

Just when I think I've heard everything!  Some posts are just SO amusing.  My mom keeps asking if I have a wet/dry vacuum yet.  Now I'm imagining the great Creator turning away from gazing at the stars, saying "Aw Geez!  The great sump on Earth is overflowing again!  Guess we'd better turn that into a glacier or something!"LOL
