Do up a retro with a pair of used 150 halides and 2 to 4 T5s for supplementation. It would probably cost you around 400 or so and you would have...
I always liked the look of: ATI blue + KZ fiji purple ATI aqua blue ATI blue + In that order front to back. If your ordering bulbs, might be a...
Where did you read hermits and clams are not compatible? The only way I see it going south is if you dont feed the tank for a couple months and the...
If it were my tank I would probably look at dropping each halide a half inch or so and mount exhaust fans right above them with the fans on the...
I use an RK2 on my nano basically because I got it for $20. Its cheap and it gets the job done but lacks a lot of the frills (like online access)...
just read a review where someone was using a maxijet 600 for a feed pump with good results. to raise and lower the water level you can either adjust...
Skimming is a very natural way of filtration in marine tanks. Ever seen that nasty foam at the beach that waves bring in? There are all kinds of...
When I had a larger reef tank my big pink tail trigger was by far the most active and personable fish I have ever had. if your tank looks empty, I...
I would just change your bulbs around to 3 blue +, 2 aqua blues and a fiji purple. That was the best color combo I got when using T5's. ~Will.

the best "big and cheap" skimmer I ever had was a used ASM g3. i got it for $100 used and it worked pretty good, but after getting an SWC cone on a...
I have always kept my tanks between 78 and 80 with no problems at all. Are you keeping cold water varieties of corals or seahorses? ~Will.
if your planning on keeping mostly SPS, I would go for the double mp-10 option, but if softies and LPS are more your thing a single MP-10 should be...
As long as your sump can hold the extra volume if the power goes out you'll be fine. ~Will.
thanks guitar man, I'm enjoying this little tank a lot more than I thought I would. I kinda feel spoiled now cause I cant ever see having another...
Never heard back from the guy with the corals, but I have a few offers on cars and really high end laptops . . . The only reason there has not been...
