Sounds like an excellent start. I wouldn't even go with the T5's if your set on FOWLR, unless you know you will be tempted into corals. If it is...
Red lighting is better to use more like a flashlight rather than moonlights that are run all night. Red spectrum promotes rapid algae growth, so I...
Ooooo! I have a pic! My girlfriend just had to have bone spurs removed from both big toes. She has been on no feet for this week, and will be until...
Get well soon Iraf! Seems a lot of us 3Reefers are falling down lately. Maybe this place is cursed! :P ;)
Not needing a hole really depends on the surface area of your tank vs the size of your sump. My return lines are only about an inch under the surface...
I know they say they are really easy, but if it makes ya feel any better I have had trouble as well. I started with 6. Within a week, I had 1. That...
Coylee pretty much nailed it. The anti-siphon hole needs to be just below the waters surface, not above it exposed to the air. If it's in the air...
Make sure its on a rock (not on the sand) and that you have the lighting for it. Also at that small, it will need at least once daily phyto feedings....
There are a ton of things that affect the water clarity. Carbon is a good, easy step. Also, ozone greatly affects the waters clarity. Maybe you are...
It is possible you got a misidentified camel shrimp(pretty common at stores). If that's the case, it will have to be removed if you want corals. Just...

Just wondering if anyone wants a single black misbar clown? My tank still wasnt big enough for more than my existing pair apparently ;) It's poor...
Whats with the stomach issues lately? I had to go to the hospital twice this month with mine. Mine has been the pancreas, which randomly decided to...
Thanks! The eggcrate was actually over the main tank, not the fuge. I ended up losing the jawfish, so I have just been completely open top again...
I got in there a week before xmas or so. It looked OK. Could be a good start. I was disappointed as I saw dead fish in the tanks. Not trying to be...
I've tried a handful of the different pygmy angels, all ended up eating corals and clams. I won't try again.
OK here is everything that has happened if you missed the first thread: About two weeks ago I started experiencing bad stomach pains and lost my...
I do have updates ;) I actually went to the ER again last night due to showing a "red flag" symptom. Turns out it was a side effect of the ant-acids...
So, I have been kind of absent lately. Just to tell everyone what has been going on: Since Friday afternoon, I was bad stomach pain, tons of acid,...
