Why not just use a 10 gallon or 20 gallon glass aquarium? Much easier. You can get the baffles cut by any glass shop, just give them the dimensions...
I have 30 lbs in my 38 gallon, and 15 in my 20 gallon. I plan on doubling that to 60 and 30, so that would be about 1 1/2 lbs per gallon.
Welcome, and good luck. Remember to go sloooooooooow.
Which wavemaker?
I currently don't have any livestock (starting my tanks over- removed crushed gravel and replaced with argonite sand), but when I did: I fed...
Where did you score them for only $23 each?
rotfl ;D
Sounds like it could be a yellow watchman goby. Try googling that and see if the pics match what you have. Here's a pic: Saltwater Aquarium Fish...
Sorry, I mistyped. Meant to type a "36" not "46". I still think you need more flow. Get a second (slightly less powerful) powerhead and place it on...
I second the drip method as I have the 2.5 gallon kent aquadoser. Just build a little shelf above the tank, and place it there. Works like a charm.
If you're already using it, then I'd stay with it (it's not that much different from the 23 watt 6500k bulb). When it comes time to replace it, I'd...
Nope. Mine stays between 79-81. 79 all winter. 80-81 during the summer.
Welcome to 3reef! Oh yeah, PICS PLEASE! :D
What's the nitrate reading coming out of the ro unit? How much flow do you have? One powerhead doesn't seem like it would be enough. Cut back your MH...
Me too ! :) (Or rather, I used to. Since I just restarted my tank (using sand now instead of crushed gravel), I don't need the Kalk drip yet. But I...
Never use soft-white bulbs 2500k - 3500k. You should use 6500k bulbs. I use 23watt (100 watt equivalent) 6500k Sylvania bulbs from Lowes. $5.88 each....
I use photobucket (it's free), and have the site resize them to 1024 x 768 when I upload them. Works pretty well. Then, I just copy and paste the...
What are your nitrate and phosphate levels? Phosphate should be as close to zero as possible. Would be good if nitrates are less than 10 ppm (the...
Some new pics: July 3rd: Here's my third attempt at glueing a 1 inch pvc pipe onto my overflow box. First atempt: Glued it all together, but...
The storage tank is pressurized (about 30 psi) and will move the water without a pump. The pressure comes from the pressure in your water lines....
