Hopefully better late than never. The T5s are not redundant, but I would only run actinic bulbs in them. You do have 20,000K MH so you could probably...
Yea, I was just checking. Well, i think you can be pretty sure it's not from too little light. I would do what you are doing, put it at the bottom,...
That's a great looking coral!
I think you should be fine, my skimmer has been on the fritz for the past 2 months and the only negative I have noticed is that some of my corals...
I have a chalice and initially it was very picky, it didn't like where I put it at first, it started to darken, I moved it and then moved it again....
That's really too bad, they are such beautiful fish. How long have you had it before it developed a taste for corals?
I think you tank looks awesome. As others have said, I was never into fresh water tanks, until I saw this one. It makes me want to go out and start...
They require algae and vegetable type food and also meaty foods. A seaweed clip would be very helpful. They will graze on the live rock, so I hope...
That would have been funny, like the guy who took a picture of a piece of furniture for ebay, but didn't realize that the flash caused a reflection...
That's kind of what I was leaning towards. I thought about the 150s, but I didn't want to upgrade and then be unhappy again with my lighting.
If you want a good quality T5 fixture, I would go with one with individual reflectors, the one you are talking about doesn't have them. With T5s,...
I was also wondering if anyone had any input on this fixture. I have now pretty much settled on MH lighting, but now debating between getting a 2 x...
Yea, I kind of figured that. Right now after doing some reading, I'm think I will need to raise the light off the tank by about a foot right now. I...
I agree with Sostoudt. It is important not to consider how big the fish is when you get it, but how big it will get and how much waste it can...
I am actually glad somebody brought this up. I too have some GSP that are growing in places I don't want them to grow. I will keep the glue and epoxy...
The GSM clowns can be very aggressive, so I would suggest other, more aggressive type fish. I think damsels would be a good choice, a six line...
I would say give it a shot. I know that if you place a frogspawn and a hammer next to each other, they will not be hurt by each other; they are very...

I would suggest at least 4 x54 T5 HO bulbs. This will allow you to keep softies and most lps. If you can exchange it, I would do that. Good luck with...
My experience with monits has been very good. They are very hardy. Montipora Capricornis seem to tolerate less light and maintain their color....
