That's all fine and dandy, it's just I've had 3 paying jobs in 2 years, along with a butt load of volunteer work. One was at a local hobby store,...
What everyone else has said. My skimmer emptying procedure is thus: -lift collection cup -take to sink -remove lid -rinse -wipe down with...

I guess this is a common thing. My last fish is going to be a Coral Beauty in the next month...should be an intersting fight for the kingship. Our...
Our cleaner shrimp molted two days ago. It was WEIRD. haha I guess that means everyone's healthy and growing though.
Well it looks like we didn't need the Q tank for the wrasse. It's good that we have one up and probably cycling right now though...never know when...
I love my sixline. PROS with a 6 line Wrasse: color, adds a ton of movement and life to any tank, constantly foraging in the LR, hardy and eats alot...
Um no ball valve. No no no. :D Is the skimmer new? If so, it may be in the "break in" stage. I would let it run by itself for 48-72 hours and...
What scenario1313 said. Your tank is an outstanding setup for one. The refugium and the enormous amount of rocks are KEY. You pretty much need...

The ocean where people swim is just plain gross. I would go with the LFS water or mix your own. We started with LFS water and have added our own...

Eh we wanted a new, nothing to worry about tank. And mother dear, I did my part by filling the stupid thing with water (sixty pounds of SW I might...
I was worried that we were not going to be able to house a good range of corals with "only a 4 bulb" fixture. I have since been proven wrong :D....
Wow I might want to switch over to those bulbs when we need to replace ours. That sounds amazing!
Ok we went with a 10gallon (don't have any tangs to Quarantine...so it's all good) and bare bottom. It's got 6 gallons of display tank water in it...
We're planning on buying one of those el cheapo pet store 10gallon freshy kits with the little power filter and such and use it as a SW quarantine...
