Sorry for the loss man. Tangs are just so unpredictable. K+
WOW. And you got a free Hippo Tang. I've never heard of a tang hitchhiking in on LR. Congrats.
4 bulbs are brand new and 2 are about 2-3 months old. I may just get a fixture through an LFS that I have a good relationship with. I'm not sure...
I forget the name of that macroalgae, but I do know that it turns white if it has too little light or if something bothers it. Check your salinity...
Would something like a turbo snail eat it?
Should be fine. Many people have them with SPS, and with SPS you can't have any of those levels detectable. The vast majority the food for the clams...
Heres a pic. It's kind of hard to see. It looks kind of brown and muddy/mucky. I think it might just be detritus build up.
I have the exact measurements. Like I said I have a homemade canopy which is not normal. The measurements of the light are 47"x151/4". The inside of...
I just read the first 3 pages of this post, and as far as stocking, I wanted to say that tiger barbs will kill community fish. I put 6 in my 36 and...
I'm not sure if this is exactly what I'm looking for. Here's the link, can you guys check it out and see if its a good light? 48" 6x54w t5 light...
Welcome. The first choice you've made in this hobby is the right one-to research and learn before diving in.
I wish I had a tank that big.
I'm not sure yet. I don't know if both would fit. What would you recommend? Would 6x 54 watt t5s be enough, or would it be wise to keep the PCs?
It could have picked a fight with someone, but it sounds like it was just his time. Sometimes fish die for no reason we can figure out, and I can't...
What's a retrofit? I have a canopy, but its an odd canopy. It was home made by the guy I bought the tank from. I'll find a way to mount it.
I just found a 6x54 watt Tek t5 fixture for 300 dollars on craigslist. Should I look into this?
I would cut whatever is causing the "white smokey stuff". You don't know what affects it could have on the tank, and yes, DI water will help your...
Actually, I meant to say 300-400 dollars. These are on the high end of the price range. I'm probably going to look for one of these fixtures used.
The lighting issue would personally steer me away from a circular tank. However, you will regret not getting the tank you want more than getting it...
Looks good. You shouldn't have any more fish in the overflow problems;D.
