    Easy is relative I guess...Zoas are my bane...

    RC- moderators w/o a sense of humor!!

    hmm... In 7 years or something, I've never got an infraction there. Which is sort of ironic as I'm told I'm a walking infraction :) I do...

    ATS instead of Skimmer?

    They don't really do the same thing in my opinion. The skimmer will remove certain organics before they break down into nitrate, phosphate etc......

    How to tell if the bulbs are good

    Am I doing something wrong? (SPS Coral, pic)

    Looks nice, some corals are browner than others. I would definitely consider nutrients and lighting as well. How do your other corals, that you've...

    Garlic = Bad for fish liver?

    Deal? 24 led x 3watt complete DIY for $170

    The aquastyle kits should be fine too. With softies, wouldn't go with 60 degree optics though. 80 max, or if you hang it really low, you could go...

    Ultimate fish room dream...

    Thinking about a controller

    That's too bad, but to be honest, I don't trust lights on a controller after having one fail on. I mostly use it for redundancy, and it works well...

    Deal? 24 led x 3watt complete DIY for $170

    That looks like a nice kit. I haven't heard much about them though. 2 certainly would be enough. What do you plan to keep?

    Dumb question?! No skimmer

    Replacing T5 Bulbs ?
