The setup looks incredible, can't wait to see it with some fish and corals in there.
Great looking tank. I thought you said in the beginning that you never the money laying around to start up a salt water tank? How far you've come.
I run my carbon in my overflow, it gets good flow and fits really nice in there. I haven't had any issues as of now.
Well the frags didn't make it either, I don't know if they were just doomed to begin with or the pieces I cut had already started to RTN. Guess I...
My power has been out for about that long and I wasn't even home, I had no ill effects. This is also why I prefer to keep my tank more lightly...
I wasn't even sure it was the temp, but I believe what Jason said, sometimes it just happens for no apparent reason.
Well I just got back home from work and found my Rose Millepora coral to have suffered about 75% loss to RTN. It was fine last night, and I didn't do...
I also like the third of the tank volume rule, it's more accurate than just pounds as this post shows. The rock will hold some water, so 20lbs may...
If you continue to feed 1.5 cubes a day, you will encounter nitrate problems. That is a lot of food. I would feed him regularly. I feed about a 1/3...
Great looking corals. They are really colorful.
I think the 8x54w T5s would work, the problem with the halides is that generally, you need one for every two feet of tank, so you would have a darker...
The refugium should be perfectly fine. Cheato is a great, hardy macro algae and there is a very small risk of it going asexual and reproducing...
I would leave it at that, your getting a lot of fish in there, although they are generally smaller fish. How much live rock do you have?
I think this is still a bad idea, tangs produce a lot of waste and although you have a larger sized tank, the bacteria population would have...
You'll see a lot of algae and various creatures, it's all normal. Just keep on monitoring your parameters and you'll be fine. The rock does look nice...
That's interesting, never would have thought of that.
Those are some really nice looking frags, and your tank looks awesome.
Great looking tank! I'm on the frag train too.
That sounds strange, I've never heard of that happening. Does it only happen with Rod's food? Have you tried to see if there is anything blocking the...
I would prefer the octopus, I have heard very good things about those skimmers.
