Just make sure they are both different sizes or they will never get along. They must always be of different size or there will never be a dominant one.

that was for special one. He has to know the size of the one he has compared to the one you giving him.

In your case, the bigger one has already changed from male to female and is the dominant one.

There is no right amount. You cant add purpleup if you not running lights. And not just any lights.........good reef lights. You could run 2 bottles of purple up and see nothing and another man use half bottle and seeing coralline like crazy. When I was running that in my tubs outside, I was actually using natural sunlight.

rotoplastics (opposite side of highway by courts mega store) have some 55 gal drums. Also in the same street have some drums a man selling. just make sure is food grade. if not, it have the barrel man after you pass princess town heading to new grant. The man is right after the pork man (left side). you cant miss the barrels. Its about $50-60

just came across this

bhagwansinghs has a cabinet like this, I was looking at it yesterday to put a tank inside

but i just noticed how the plumbing is set up on this pic

rodi fills one barrel, while the other is locked off
then you can open the valves to fill and mix in the other barrel
