Sorry, but I'd agree 3 x 60 degree PAR 30s. The bulb can last 10+ years, although it will loose some light output. They key is keeping it cool, so,...
get a rubbermaid tub or bucket, or something. Throw in a cup of sand from the 90, the new rock and a small circulation pump. Add some food now and...
It's a carbon source, so, it's a little different than most additives, as it drives bacteria. More like adding food than a chemical in many ways....
You can put them on angles. I am not sure where your seeing 20 degree though? Generally DIY LEDs are available in 80, 60 and 40 degree. The wider...
Yeah, assuming you are not spraying, it should be okay. I haven't found paint to be an issue. Dust maybe more of an issue if your sanding, but...
Sand will accumulate organics and detritus, so some people will tell you to wash it (with tank water, not fresh water!). This is fine and can be...
Vitamin C is an interesting carbon source. It is fairly readily available and inexpensive. Whether or not different carbon sources supports a...
Yeah, that was sort of the point ;)
I don't doubt it Cheryl :lol: just trying to point out, there are lots of dinos, that all require specific treatments. I just think it's best to...
I'm not saying stopping water changes isn't effective, it is well documented that it can be. The theory is that they run out of some, unknown trace...
I have always done water changes and it works. I worry about not doing water changes, as some of the toxins may be hydrophillic, so, in that case,...
Not all dinos respond to high pH. Actually some people have suggested that the toxic ones do and the non-toxic ones don't. And the toxic ones tend...
Is it red Dinos or more of a tan?
First, to be honest, the corals you point, out don't really look brown to me, at least on my monitor. More just dark, actually probably about their...
:thumb_up: Cool, I thought it would take you longer to ID it though ;D
Maybe, I see what your saying. I'd still like an ID to confirm though ;D
Sweet, nice setup. Cool dottyback, I like the idea of a 10g aggressive tank :P
I try not to bash companies, but to be perfectly honest, Coralife products don't tend to be very good at all. I've just seen endless problems with...
I've seen a lot of cases where defective electronics caused voltage in the tank and bleached corals. So, certainly possible. Have you checked all...
I've seen things like this, but I am skeptical that it is a sponge, without a positive ID. I know sponges take a lot of forms and such, so, it could...
