Pics or a detailed diagram are needed, or we really don't know how your system is set up and can't help.
Hydrogenated oils with the consistency of whipped butter, of course. ;D
The rock gives fish a natural place to hide, and spots of slower flow to sleep. That's more important than anything else, but it has huge benefits...
Well, no, but I have a RSM250 and know how. Why do you want to use a fuge? Are you planning to keep all SPS? If not, there's no real reason to use...
LOL, gotta love the clowns and their propensity to never host what you want.
Answer crew to the rescue on every thread LOL
You might want to just move the red macros that are getting burned down in the tank, if they're placed middle to top.
Test it for ammonia, nitrite and nitrate. When Nitrite and ammonia are 0, wait a couple days, then you an add to the tank.
Yeah, that blue area always staying filled is absolutely key to having it self-prime. Without that extra bit of plastic, the overflow won't...
You say ghetto, I say not overpriced. ;D
The way I've seen self-starting overflows designed: [ATTACH]
The shrimp will get pretty specific about where it stands once it's used to the routine. Mind you, it could take a couple weeks to get in to the...

Since you have a fuge, it should be cool to do a mandarin. It's really that the pods need a safe haven from the mandarin, which a refugium provides...
If you use a turkey baster, just use it to prod at the shrimp any time it gets too close, and give it a bit of food after it stays away for ~10...
Adding to this, for those without sumps: Put a pump on the back end instead of putting it in the sump.
Not true in the slightest. If ich is on the fish during a freshwater dip, it will make it in to the tank with the fish just as it normally would. If...
If I were you, given your success with anemones, I would keep feeding the bejesus out of them and sell any clones past your 2. I like the idea of...
Separate names with a comma.
