That sounds like a good plan. Downside to this though, is if the pump does start working again, and you have an ATO, you could get saltwater replaced...
I've never set up a big tank with a remote sump. But the one thing I'd be worried about is the volume of water in the piping in a poweroutage...
Looks good! The only thing I'd recommend (from personal experience!) is that you be sure you can clean the glass on any side you plan on being...
After switching from eggcrate to mesh, I would say eggcrate blocks a lot of light. I'd recommend against it. Also, having used glass, the salt...
I had a cracked tank. I swapped all my Live Rock, and a cupful of sand into the new tank and avoided much of a cycle. My crack went all the way down...
Ok, I am not going to post pictures. They didn't come out AT ALL. The before and after look exactly the same on my pictures.... which doesn't do...
Change of plans. The more I think about it, the more the idea of just cutting 2 new tops of eggcrate (I have a ton left over) and let it defuse the...
I went with the 2 Blue Plus, 1 Aquablue special, and 1 Purple plus. Decided I would adjust my coral\light schedule as needed, but that I should go...
I've got similar readings with my oceanic salt as well. So far nothing seems unhappy from it.
Further complicating the issue: BRS is having a ten X points sale. I could, in theory, buy the lights, then use that to buy one of their economy RODI...
Ok, so here's the situation. For Christmas I got 150 in visa gift cards (100 of it was "FOR AQUARIUM USE ONLY" according to the giver :D). So,...
The quality of these pictures just makes it so hard to justify entering! haha. I wish I had a nice sweater to join in!

What do you have for your lighting schedule with this setup? Thanks!
I'd also point out that Mead is in North Spokane. So be prepared for a big task of moving that across the mountains if you're in the Seattle Area.
Another issue to consider is the water itself. With saltwater, you'll need to be sure you have enough water transported to support your livestock...
I can't comment on other Seattle Area stores, but I'm in a reef club from Spokane, and Barrier Reef Aquariums in Renton is one of our sponsors. I've...
I will Post pictures for sure. Still debating which combo to go with. Actinics with my same light period, or the one listed above with a shorter...
Ok, I think I will just replace with the actinics then. Thanks for all the help!!
Lol, so in other words they're not true antics. This is why I ask these questions. I am soooooo lost when it comes to lighting, haha. Would...
