Sounds like a good deal. I'd start with new sand and keep the rock. It (rock) may have a lot of phosphate trapped up so I'm guessing you should run...
Absolutely. Never thought of the negative potential. I actually use a jbj ago. With a bucket and pump inside. One float switch is in tank and other...
Just run the line to a float valve. Set the float at the height you want the water and your off.
Its a nice thought. Imagine being able to re cycle water. Wonder if running it through a ro/di would work. Would it remove the salt to? Guess you'd...
There was an article in a coral mag. Can't remember his name but he was well known. He downgraded from a 250? To something lime a seven gal. Mind you...
Dont worry about pairing. The pistol shrimp will snap its claws and that is how the goby will find it. Mine didn't pair up for a few days. Even now...

From what ive seen sloping the two back corners works.well. brings focus towrds.centre. also try different sizes front to back. Its kind of like a...
sounds like halimeda( excuse spelling) i had sometging similar but tang ate it up. Think its good.
I kinda doubt adding the power heads increased nitrates. Although the bacteria that consumes nitrates likes low oxygen areas, maybe you eliminated a...
Couldnt stop laughing at the end. Good things really do come in small packages.
Magnesium. Bet ya its really low.
yup. Media bag(s). Toss a couple small rocks in there to keep it from floating around.
All breakers are gfci. I dont know much about groundung probes as they pertain to aquariums though.
Sounds like a bacterial bloom. Common with new tanks that have just cycled or still xyccling. Should clear up on its own. But may take a week or so....
