so it sounds like they hired you to take care of the tank? man you have one heck of a job ahead of you. I dont find that halides grow algae more so...
you said the back has no access. Do you mean the tanks are up against a wall or something? Because once you drilled it and ran the plumbing you would...
By the way what are the dimensions on those tanks? Its hard to imagine a system thats 1600-1900 gallons total. haha
I would run a central sump if it were my setup. Buying one really big skimmer would probably be more cost efficient than two smaller skimmers. As for...
that grouper is BEAUTIFUL!. I have no experience with either fish though, so I guess time will have to tell.
my peppermint would not eat coral, but would irritate the crap out of them when I would feed.
looks normal to me. It may also begin to turn grey, pink, purple, or green.

I dont want to go into it too much on this thread but i dont like the bacteria balance swings it creates. Ive seen them crash a few tanks, probably...

I didnt even notice the black pencil sketch at first. Maybe make it red instead of black? As for rock, you need a long skinny piece for the pillar...
nice looking frags you got there. And nice little clam. Is that a crocea? you will be surprised how fast they can grow within a year.
Those are definitively pineapple sponges. I had alot when I first set my tank up and they eventually only existed in the sump. Completely harmless....
ouch. glad its doing better. I've been hit by bristle worms more than I could count and those little boogers do work on fingers. Worse case I ever...
if he threw in a wet dry you could easily just hook that up. Problem is I hate the options for mechanical filtration with wet dry's. best choice with...
