Unclejed I don't care what some salesperson says. The facts are any plant will use nitrate and phosphate as it grows, the faster it grows the more...
The wave box is from Tunze It is a great device, but like all Tunze items a little spendy. Tunze® Wavebox 6212/6212.50 Wavemaker
I have no experiance with that canister/wetdry/skimmer all in one unit. But from the looks of it and being from Tom, I don't think it will be a...
Tigermike, I would not worry about that little of a bit of caulerpa. Kim
Dual 150's will keep a clam. You could keep a gigas or derasa in the sand, or a maxima/crocea in the top 2/3 of the tank without any problems, if...
The growth rate of mangroves is to slow to remove a lot of nitrate. That link does not say how fast it grows. The plant/algae that grows the...
Mangroves are not very good at removing nitrates, they just grow to slow. Since you do not have a good sand bed in the tank, you will need a fuge...

Your numbers look fine so I would not worry about using kalk, Strontium I do not dose nor do I suggest dosing it. It is not needed. Your alk is a...
I will say that will work well. You could eliminate the extra baffles for the bubble trap, since the algae in the fuge will trap the bubbles. Kim
If you want random movement for your 500 range, I would say the Vortech would be a great solution, or you could go with a Tunze setup with...
I have a question for you. Do you have a sump or do you need hang on the back? If you have a sump, I would suggest getting the octopus NW-150, it is...
It is the oils and other things on your skin that causes the surface tension to change, which can change the skimmer. Kim
I would say it really depends on how much light you want in the tank. That is a pretty good fixture for the money. It does not perform as well as...
