I would still need to do it with 4 bulbs. It has more to do with the light intensity than the number of bulbs although that is also a factor.
I feed once a day and I have Chromis which supposely need to be fed at least twice a day. I have found that with new Chromis they need to be fed...
I have 6 bulbs over my 75 and they are 10.5" above the water and I use 2 actinic bulbs. When I finally moved the fixture to this position all of my...
Do not do FW dips, this almost always kills the coral. Otherwise yes if you can.
What are you going to keep in the tank? IME you will want to hang the fixture so that it is almost 30" above the sand to keep from light...
I prefer to keep off of the glass for flow, cleaning and retrieval purposes. I have my rock placed on PVC to allow water to flow around all of the...
Asteriniid starfish, safe but may eat coraline algae.
You will have no limitations on animals in your tank with that fixture. You will most likely need to raise it higher that the legs it comes with if...
Looks great Travis. bobssecrtsn you will need to dose if have SPS and clams. You may need to dose once in a while with a LPS tank if you have a...
Good luck. In a pinch if you have room to do it you can remove the bad heads by hand.
You are only asking for more work by keeping the LR in the sump. As stated if you have enough in the DT then you don't need any LR in the sump. Yes...

The ATS will need to be cleaned as needed like in SW, but should not be needed as the plants should do the same job. I think the pump will be...
You should also siphon as much of the BJD so it does not get loose in the tank tank and kill other corals.
No you shouldn't. Always cause LPS coral to close up completely by gently irritating it. This will prevent the tissue from tearing due to water in...
Flatworms, siphon them out whenever you see them. You most likely will need to use Flatworm Exit to get all on them in your tank. It is best to use...
I agree with this although I would use the blue LED and replace the T5 bulbs with a blue one and a 12000K white one or two white ones.
It looks like it. You will need to pull the coral and the rock it is on if you can not remove it from the rock. Use a dremel to cut off the dead...
You will want to remove the affected heads and dip the coral in iodine. You might want to see if there are any other ways to deal with BJD by...
I do 5% per week. I think it may be more important in a SPS tank than most others due to depletion of minerals being greater. I can see where...
