Man, that is one clean tank! Very beautiful too, I might add. :)
Whisper 60- 330gph. I always go with oversize filters. I do not, however, use filter pads. It's for surface circulation and a place to hang media...
That doesn't apply to lighting- I wanna see it on tonight! <j/k> :D Congratulations Cheryl, and welcome to the cool and sane side. ;)
Personally, I wouldn't bother with a skimmer for the 10g. A tablespoon of GAC and a gallon of water is a lot cheaper and plenty easy enough to...
As water evaporates, salinity rises. When you top off, you bring it back to normal. My 29g loses 2 - 3 cups per day. I top off manually each evening,...
I agree with not turning off powerheads unless it's with a wavemaker for random flow effects. FWIW, you can adjust the position and direction of...
Joists always run perpendicular to the length of the structure, or the peak of the roof (IOW, side-to-side). :)
Sadly, that's most likely your problem too, and changing tanks won't solve it. If you can't start with clean water, how on Earth can you keep it...
Your pic is a little blurry, but my first guess is sponge. Is it hard or soft?
"Back in the day", I kept a Condy nem under a single standard fluorescent strip light in a 20g tank; it was still alive and well when I sold the tank...
That would depend on exactly which LEDs they're using, and how they have them set; that's a lot of T5 power, there. :) I agree, start the coral on...
Beautiful tank, Trevor. Looks like you've got a few nice SPS colonies going in there. How old is your tank and what type of lighting do you have?
I agree with John- if you place it so it spans across multiple joists and sits near a load-bearing wall, you'll be fine.
Stacking the rock against the back is actually fairly common- don't have much choice if you want room in front in a standard rectangle. A powerhead...
Some fish can have such funny personalities. lol. Very nice additions, Daniel. Congratulations. :)
If your clowns didn't like a new fish, you'd know it, as they would bully it in broad daylight. They're not nocturnal, and they lack the means to...
I use the "direct link" from photobucket which shows a full message frame-width pic. If you right-click on it and select "view image", it will...
How long have you had them, and what types of food do they get? IMOPE, most fish that have specialized diets and are not receiving proper nutrition...
Very beautiful, healthy-looking fish. Glad to see your Copperband Butterfly and Cleaner Wrasse are doing so well; they're usually nearly impossible...
I respectfully disagree. Starving your pets for the sake of cutting corners on CuC or filtration, or to slack on maintenance is not a viable option....
