I read the stickey mentioned in the title of this thread. Many posters said that one mistake they made was starting their tank with live rock instead...
So you are using an Aquafuge and an HOB? That sounds pretty reasonable. I still may get a tank that is pre-drilled, but plug the bulkhead, just in...
Thanks for your replies, Steve and Curt. I must say that the attitude of frequently posting members here is far superior to a poplular cichlid forum...
Issues with 50 posts. Being on other boards and seeing what goes on, I can certainly understand your rules. Having said that, I think that 50 posts...
I still haven't decided the exact route I want to take in building a reef. My original thought was a Nano (10 gal.) and I was dissuaded from that. I...
Yeah... ummmm... that one is one that got me confused. There's way too much information in that article for a newbie IMHO. Steve

Can aragonite that has been used in a cichlid tank be mixed with new aragonite for use in a new reef tank? I realized that the bacteria is probably...

This sounds like an interesting project. I'm still researching, but would like to put a small tank together, too. Keep us posted here and let us know...
Uh oh. Lot's of negative vibes regarding a pico. Are they really all that difficult if you use an ATO? As for creatures, I'd be satisfied having...
Great find and thanks for the link. This thing is awesome. I might steal it for one of my freshwater tanks.
I really like everything I see. I am new to salt, but a verteran fresh water guy. Like I said, stand looks great EXCEPT those leveler bolts. I...
Hi, I have been keeping freshwater aquaria since I was about 8 years old. (JFK was pres.) I am ready to take the plunge into salt water and would...
