A carnation is Non-photosynthetic. No light needed, just lots of filter food.
A 150W will put out heat, but different K ratings will have almost no effect on heat output. I run dual 175W on my tank and I can definately tell a...
I have a 45 and also use a Remora. It is a good skimmer and have had no problems with it. It was however highly recommend, when I purchased mine,...
Unfortunately, skimmers are one thing I would not recommend going for the cheapest you can get. Get lots of opinions, and read, read, read. Would...
All 150W bulbs use 150W of energy. The K rating is the difference. 10K is your more whiter daylight. The higher K you go, the bluer the light gets.
I kill my PHs at night. Still run return and skimmer. Cuts about 1/3 of the movement. Gives my more delicate night time fish a chance to come out...
Level your stand. One of the most overlooked things. So simple to do, and can be a disaster if you don't. +1 to everything already listed
Personally, I wouldn't keep any SPS under 200W of light. I recently went with MH and will never go back. My SPSs have seen major improvement since...
I am curious about this as well. I have been looking around, but not many people go this big. I was thinking along these lines. Precision Marine...
Betting copper. Would also highly recommend a ground probe. Get that temp up to 78-79.
Anthias of some kind. Hard to give exact from front. female Purple Queen?
No shrimp, or crab would be safe.
Possibly, but I doubt it. You will know for sure by touch. The carnation will be tough and rough to the touch. A colt will feel like goo in a bag.
Yup, that's how they look. They can expand and contract tremendously. Mine is usually contracted throughout the day and will get huge at night.
Probably because he couldn't get anyone to take it. Hard to keep alive. Heavy dosing of phyto is necessary. I personally have several 2 liters...
A square base would be fine as long as 100% of the tank is supported. You can have nothing sticking over the edge. Just imagine an avalanche....
Also something to keep in mind. You could just sell the livestock and store the more expensive equipment. Cheaper startup upon your return.
I believe 1.026 is better for coral.
Reminds me more a nudibranch than a worm. Can't find a photo to back that up though.
One thing to check with that type of bulb is orientation. Make sure that both bulbs are roughly the same. Different orientations will give you...
