My honest opinion, I feel MH is the tried and true pick for lighting (T5 also is great). LED is still too early to tell & its customization may also...
IMO the cost of a new tank is really cheap vs the headache to clean and ultimately figure out if this new tank is ok. The piece of mind going with a...
Even if there's a chance it doesn't work out, I would always rather learn from a bad experience than wonder what would have happened. $ can be made...
sweeeeeet, I WANT!
I used to have Koralias when I had BTA's in my old tank. I used some gutter guard and zipties, they weren't really that bad looking in the tank....
my Solorensis wrasse is really friendly it's not afraid when I put my hand in the tank. I swear it brushes up against me like a cat :)
my favs include pearly jawfish blue dot jawfish flame hawk blue hippo porcupine puffer (not for a reef though)
+1 on what cosmo said, this is normal with live sand, or even dead sand too if not thoroughly rinsed (which is a pita). Throw some filter floss or...
it's hard to say how healthy the nem was from the start, they usually die a slow death and you won't know anything is wrong until it's too late (for...

Wow so many videos thank you Matt & mods for all your hard work!

sounds good, let us know how it goes
from the pics it's a Salifert test kit, which are great and accurate (as long as there is no human error). I would definitely try to hit a LFS to...
I started with really nice premium live rock and my tank cycled in a matter of days (YMMV), so I like having a higher percentage of really good live...
Cool, I wouldn't bother feeding it until it starts to extends again. Just see how it does over the next few days in terms of the heads coming out....
I use those 1" mounting squares with zipties for certain areas to get the wires secure and running out of sight. You can get them at Home Depot or...
I agree, sweet looking RBTA. I've had no luck with my past RBTA's bubbling up but currently have a GBTA that has bubbled and stayed that way....
Hmmm, so both tests are one right after the other? Or is there a 4 week gap between? Did you do any big water changes between tests? I would...
