Awesome looking tank so far, can't wait to see it with livestock? If you don't mind me asking are you guys paying for this or is the company?
Pretty much stated, also, bags, maybe heat/cool packs and rubber bands for shipping.
It could be your skimmer (if you have one). If it's not, then you can try to put a filter sock on the drain.
You need coated magnets. I bought mine from Browntrout (I think) here, it was cheap and it's built very nicely and works great. It cost me $10 plus...
How long has it been up and running?
It looks as if some parts have died. Do you have anything that would pick at it? I've had hermits crawl over mine causing the polyps to retract for a...
If I were you, I would make my own sump. It's really easy. All you need is some silicone, acrylic and a tank. I used a 20 gal. long for my 55. It has...
I like to keep mine around 78 to allow for variances, but anything up to about 82 is still not too bad.
Do you have any pics? My pokerstar and sunset just went through a little phase where the polyps didn't extend as much, I don't know why, but they are...
Try fresh sea food. Squid, clams, mussles etc, that may work.
I have a 55 with a 6x54w Tek fixture. I have many sps corals and a clam, no problem with any of them. I used to have a 4x54w T5 Nova Extreme and I...

There are pre made rocks that look pretty natural and contain many spots for plugs, that would also allow you to have open areas for soft corals and...
It almost looks like a small sps coral.
That's probably exaclty what happened, you restricted the flow too much.
I initially used standard, hard pvc pipe. However, I just replaced it with clear vinyl tubing as it allows for a greater return rate as you can get a...
Just try to do that, if you can take the rock out, it will be a lot easier.
I've had something similar happen to my montis, a white spot would appear on the tip or body. I think it was just something picking at it, it regrew...
You can try to get some deals on ebay, but that can be hit or miss. Some websites aren't too bad on prices, but others are worse. The fact is though...
I didn't see that older thread. For future reference, you should rinse the rock off in salt water instead of fresh water or hot water. I just use the...
