Was near the LFS yesterday and stopped in to browse. Of course I "had" to get something. So I studied all of the frags and picked out one I thought...
Yes you will need 2 400 watt MH with at least 2 DIY actinic strips for dawn/dusk lol. EDIT: Just kidding about MH's :) Check out the builds on...
Oh didn't catch that. You could move a couple blues from the blue/white strand to the color strand and move the two whites to the blue/white strand.
Or some fish food.
So not a real exciting trip to the LFS yesterday. All I picked up was a bottle of RedSea part B buffer and some frozen mysis shrimp. I saw a couple...
Picked up this guy for the tank. Not really. The tang police would arrest me :) But this tang is beautiful. I snapped a picture of it while...
I like how it looks if the picture is accurate. You could always use the warm whites :) Have you tried doing 70% blue/white and 50% colors or 25%...

Thank you :) Dog pile on the return nozzle last night...
Hahaha. Man we had a stumper going lol. Well its good to know you found the problem, even if it was a facepalm lol. As far as filters go,...
Based on your pictures of flow I would say yes 50GPD is what you have. 36GPD is another common membrane size just so you know. Hopefully you are able...
Well my french is horrible but here are a few different types of capillary tubes you can buy for comparison. Flow Restrictor -This type is...
I just met an LFS owner who said my tank was going to fail because I didn't use the quality live rock he sales. I'm not sure if they are flat out...

Looks like I am getting my first algae bloom. Yay Diatomes...
