I should also add that the first two pictures are the newer arrangement and the third picture is on the day that I got the 3rd All Blue BOOSTLED and...
Updated Pics of 30 Gallon Oceanic Cube I have been doing a lot of upgrading to this tank in the last few weeks - -First was going to over 100X...
And this would be exactly why a lot of LFS are not to be trusted, or at least their advice taken with a grain of salt. Actinics are more aesthetics...
All of the above (except maybe the pickle juice thing . . . lol) are acceptable methods of cleaning PVC IMO.
Well good sir, I am quite certain I would not be amiss if I went ahead and said those are the very reasons we are all here!!! Keep up the great work!
I run my actinics for 13 hours a day and my daylight bulbs for about 12 hours a day. In the equatorial regions where a lot of the coral we keep is...

Yeah I get a little anxious changing out any glass bulbs. Only advice I can give you is to just go slow and rock gently back-and-forth within the...
On the actual lightbulb itself at the base near where the pins go into the connecter of your fixture, you should see the wattage stamped on the lamp....
Sorry to hear you are having troubles with your corals!!! How many watts is your CF lighting hood? You might be on the lower end of watts/gallon as...
WOW!!! Very glad to hear that you have pulled through this one Reefbruh!!!! your tank is really looking good- I can remember when you started this...
Sweet 'scape!!!
