Once again I completely disagree. I have 2 tanks running without a skimmer and have no problems. My girlfriend has 5 tanks, and has NEVER owned a...
Lol, nobody should EVER take anything that is said on a forum to heart and think its "golden" information. The smart thing to do would be to read...
Where are you putting the tank? Its really up to your own preference, but for tanks in the living room where you will be sitting on the couch most...
Well, I finally got the tank moved inside the house and plumbed up for the last time. It's dry at the moment, waiting on the BRS group buy to start...
Yeah, I got it at Oreilly's, but autozone and even walmart has it. Just make sure you get the static cling type. And get 5% light transmission. The...
I have not tested that. BUT, I'm pretty confident it would. Once you get it on and it dries, its pretty well put. Yet if you want it off, it will...
I know you are asking about painting, so I hate to stray from the original post. But you might think about some static cling window tint from an auto...
I would keep the tank you have. The bigger the tank, the easier it will be starting out, since you have more margin for error, and you WILL make...
I agree. I wouldn't worry about any of those 3 parameters until you put some coral in there. And I also believe your display isn't cycled and upon...
This is not true at all. Dry or live rock can be added to an established system and not cause a cycle if its done properly. Sent from my Droid using...
This was obviously a "loose" guideline for him to follow. I could have went into more detail but since he is asking basic questions I doubt he would...
Yes, mix your saltwater to 1.025 with a hydrometer, add the dry sand, throw in your live rock, and toss a couple frozen shrimp in the bottom and then...
I agree with some of the others. If you only have 100 bucks to start the tank, how are you planning on maintaining it? You will need salt for regular...
Yeah you could do one overflow box on one end, and then pipe your returns to the other end. Just out of curiousity, is there a reason you don't want...
I would think it would be hard to tune, but I suppose it could be done. The downside would be having 6 drain pipes to get to your sump. I just think...
Are you talking about doing 2 seperate overflow boxes on each side of the tank, running from front to back? Instead of one across the whole back like...
Sweet, what did you get? I was just on his site the other day, and couldnt figure out his shipping charges. I plan on ordering from him when my tank...
If your tank is glass, then I would highly suggest going this route BeanAnimal's Bar and Grill - Silent and Fail-Safe Overflow System and building a...
Yeah, I wanted to use 3/4 bulkheads for the returns, but I only wanted to buy one drill bit, so I just used 1 inch for everything and bushed them...
Lol, well that figures. I guess I'll be using one of these 1" SPIG x 3/4" FIPT Reducing Bushings | U.S. Plastic Corp. and then screwing the threaded...
