    PC vs T5

    As a supplement, PC might be OK. T5 is going to give you more PAR for the wattage, though. T5 also has a much better selection of bulbs from...

    spongless reactor?

    I would put a sponge as a prefilter if they're clogging up on you. You really need the sponges in the chambers; they hold the media.

    white dots

    Nerites don't hatch in saltwater; they need the salinity to be lower.

    Eshopps overflow gasket

    Yep, it goes on the inside. The "don't tighten too much" advice is good too. The acrylic could also crack if you do.

    Pep. Shrimp not eating Aiptasia

    It could also be that they're the wrong shrimp, lysmata californica, instead of lysmata wurdemmani.

    Barnacle Good or Bad

    Barnacles are only bad if they're on the underside of your boat or in the intake of your nuclear reactor ;D

    Cycling New Tank, Now getting Algae. What next?

    Chemicals don't do anything to help your cycle, and neither does base rock. Only live rock can keep you from having a full cycle, but there's still...

    Dr. Bergeron's MPT

    That's quite a nice tank. Definitely not something you see every day, which makes it all the more intriguing.

    Can I make a reactor?

    Carbon needs to be changed every 2 weeks, but GFO can last anywhere from 4-8 weeks depending on how much phosphate it pulls out.

    What do you think?

    It's absolutely true. The problem with MH, T5 and all other lights is that there's physical wear and tear. There's heat, which degrades a substance...

    Can I make a reactor?

    You probably could. You might want to change the fittings to a larger size, though.

    What kind of coral?

    It's always best to start low and work them up to their final location, unless you know the lighting conditions of the tank it came from in detail.

    Are you sure it was eating the coral and not some detritus/algae/other growth on it?

    Switching from saltwater

    What kind of coral?

    Usually when they're small, they grow out from the edges. When the colony gets to a decent size, it starts more "up and out" type growth, which gives...

    What kind of coral?

    Favia are some of the corals you would label "brains". I would say favia maxima.

    Chemi-pure/reactor question

    It may be an aluminum oxide, as that's another fairly common phosphate remover.
