    Sicce Wave Surfer

    Well, sicce not seio. The Sicce's are supposed to be ultra quite. I agree the vortech kicks butt. I think it is pricy for this though and I can't...

    Do DSB need a light?

    You can google the "Edge Effect" Ron Shimek has discussed this a bit in the past. I'd call it debatable, but there is some reason to believe that a...

    Tunze NanoStream Pump 6025 with Wavecontroller 7092

    What do you keep again? I thought you had a soft coral dominated tank? Usually something like 15-20x soft coral. 15-30 soft/LPS, 30-50 for mixed...

    Anyone experience with LIGHTMETER?

    Yes, a lux meter is not only useless for aquariums, it is misleading. Lux weights light according to the photopic luminosity function. This is a...

    Please reassure me

    Agree, you should not have detectable ammonia or nitrate in an established reef. Also, the HA in the background isn't a good sign, nems don't...

    Equipment Ratings?

    Yeah, an overrated skimmer will not necessarily skim better than an adequately rated one. Some companies are more honest about their ratings...

    Do DSB need a light?

    lots of microfauna feed on algae, so, it would be a good idea IMO. You would probably get denitrification without, but that's really only part of...

    Sicce Wave Surfer

    I'm looking for some powerheads for a 48x24x12 frag tank. I like Vortech, but probably not for this tank, with the 12" depth, if I went with an MP...

    T5s for a 215 gallon

    I think he means an 8 bulb T-5 may be enough. I would go with 12 though, that's a big tank. I'd rather err on the side of too much than end up with...

    montipora losing color

    I'm not sure you need to go from one extreme to another. Too little light is probably worst than too much in many ways. They are a "moderate" light...

    Tunze NanoStream Pump 6025 with Wavecontroller 7092

    Nope, not controllable. Only the 6055 and 6095 nanostreams are.

    Mixing Optics?

    Yup, definitely makes sense. That is really where the efficiency of LEDs comes from; it's the ability to direct lint exactly where you need it....

    MH for a 40 breeder frag tank

    I like 2x150s on a 36" tank. There will be some overlap and where they overlap will get a ton of PAR, with good PAR all the way to the edges. I...

    montipora losing color

    8" from the lights might do it. They do not require tons of light. High phosphate sometimes seems to cause lightening although this is somewhat...

    Marineland LED lighting

    Yeah, maybe you could keep SPS directly under the AI sol, they wouldn't do well in much of the tank with just 1. You may be able to keep SPS alive...

    montipora losing color

    ^ yeah, need more info. Nitrate will generally cause it to get darker, not lighter. Also, what do you have for filtration. Are you running GFO?

    Reef Octopus Skimmer problems!!

    The 20000K Ushio look nice, but doesn't really put out any PAR. The 14000K are much better in that regard and are a very nice crisp white. You...

    light for 90 gallon

    nope a MH is only good for around 24"x24" or so. Different reflectors can change this some, but no way you'll get 48" of coverage out of it. You'd...
