    Chiller selection

    That's true, Steve. I think I overthought my scenario. I figured if a 1/4 HP is good for a 90, then 1/3 would be outstanding in its all of its...

    glass or acrylic

    Acrylic is also a great insulator, which is terrible if you run halides. When just my sump was acrylic, my chiller ran a lot more than it does...

    where is this forum going?

    Swampman Kid--take it with a grain of salt. This is the internet and perhaps what you see as a disadvantage (people are quick to share their...

    Crying Kids in Restaurants

    Not only is parenting different, but there seems to be a movement towards a drastic lack of consideration for others in general--it's evident in...

    Push Button Water Change Anyone?

    Sounds like a great idea. Only thing I'd add, is that if you have a controller, why not use a feed cycle to time the actuation of each solenoid, one...

    glass or plexi under light?

    For all the reasons you outline, Stepho, I agree glass would be best. Salt can't corrode it, it can't warp, it's heat resistant, and heck, you can...

    GFO and any negative effect.

    Kacy, Phosban is GFO. GFO stands for granular ferric oxide-based phosphate media. Phosban is one of those types. Is what you use white and...

    Broken Center Brace!

    That's exactly how you do it, grinder37. The longer the level, the better is the reference to flat. Well done. :)

    Broken Center Brace!

    yeah. . I'm funny that way. My wife can never make sense of me. I have a stand made of 2x4's, unpainted, no doors, and I love the way it looks....

    Broken Center Brace!

    On my post above, I'm not disagreeing with the folks who recommend fixing it; and the solution put forth by Geek would work--but to me it's a helluva...

    Broken Center Brace!

    I agree with SAY. Either get a new tank or look to an LFS to replace the top frame. I did it to my 55 before I sold it. The brace was $15. For a...

    90 Gallon Build Thread

    The filter sock is not in place in these photos, but goes on the left where the intake is seen. The return pump is inline, so it's not visible in...

    Marineland Gets Reef Capable with New LED Lamps

    There's a trade off. Halides create a tremendous amount of heat, LEDs produce almost none. Halides produce more lumens, but are less efficient....

    Determining The Water Volume Of Your Whole Reef System
