Very interesting...I just happen to be looking for a pump for an 8 tank system I'm building.
Tony, It's likely that when you see your fish "swimming upstream" in the return flow, it's probably using the flow to loosen the cuticle around its...
There are many opinions as to the minimum tank size for various fish, however, our opinion (and experience) is that most dwarf lionfish can be kept...
I don't recommend running a skimmer during the cycle as using a skimmer while cycling your tank may extend the cycle a bit. You're actually trying...
Where is the end of your drain line sitting? Does the water drop into your sump, or does the water exit the drain line beneath the surface of the...
The macro in question appears to be Caulerpa racemosa var. peltata (AKA suction cup Caulerpa). Being a variant of C. racemosa, it's one of the...
Any idea what's causing your bubble issue (skimmer, drain, etc)? Also, if the microbubbles aren't making it to your DT (you didn't say one way or...
We've got a MA887, and we've been liking it a lot, altho we still use our old refractometer sometimes (just depends on where we are and which...

They generally show up when there's a pod bloom or some other type of small live prey (BBS, etc), and as mentioned, they generally disappear once the...
How large is your tank? As far as aggression from the lionfish, there won't be any. Lions are about as mellow as they come in terms of non-related...
I have a couple of Tsunami ATO's that I like really well as they work without a float valve, which always tend to be the weak link in ATO's.
Anything made of concrete will need to be cured for several weeks in FW so everything leaches out of it. It all depends on the plastic...some are...
Just a FYI...SFE's tend to get aggressive once they reach about 18" - 20", and it WILL go after tankmates at that point. Mine even managed to bite...
What live phyto does for your tank is feed any filter feeders (mollusks, etc), but the REAL benefit is that is feeds zooplankton (pods, rotifers,...
