Wow, I am definitely looking into this. Anyone use one yet?
Do you have an auto topoff of some sort then? It will be a very good idea to do and there are ways you can set them up that are pretty safe and...
You also will want to check how much water will be in your return pump chamber and make sure you have enough water in there so your pump doesn't run...
For those who do care about PAR :) the 454 has more PAR than the Super Actinic, the rest is just personal taste for colors. I prefer blue over...
Make sure you check out the optimal water depth needed for your skimmer, if there is one. Also make sure the skimmer actually fits in there...
Depends how it's attached to the plug and how well encrusted it is. If you have a picture of it or a good description of what type of plug it is and...
Google image search vermetid snail and possibly tube worm/feather duster, they both can produce hard thin tubes. It might be one of those, do you...
Are you running them on the Tunze controller with controllable powerheads or just an on/off wavemaker? If you're not using the Tunze controller with...

Nice, that's the stage I'm at as well, I need to wait at least a month or two before even thinking about adding more I think. I really want to get an...
Nice fish and some nice corals coming in, looking very nice.
One big mistake I made was stocking coral too fast, especially SPS. It wasn't that the tank was too young, but it was the fact that it was a small...
