    Loud commericals.

    Pick Me A Wrasse

    I would say a melanurus would be OK until it gets full size. They get over 6" long, and when mature, can be bullies. I would recommend a smaller...

    Battery Back-Ups...Who Uses Them?

    An APC backup will run about an hour on a maxijet 1200. I would skip the heater, and insulate the tank instead, and run a powerhead off of the UPS...

    Battery Back-Ups...Who Uses Them?

    +1 on the generator. Do your tank a favor, and buy foam insulation, and cut pieces to "wrap" your tank in it. That way, if you lose power, your...

    Another, is this light good question.

    I suppose I should have read more on the link;) Yeah, TRU bulbs are not very good, but LPS does not need a lot of PAR. Replace these with better...

    What kind of VHO bulbs

    Yep, if you get lucky you will have workhorse ballasts. I run my 2x80w t5ho's off of one w7. I have another w5 that will run 1x 80w of t5ho, but I...

    Fastest growth bulbs.

    The icecap e ballast running xm10000k's will make a very nice white light, and supplementing that with t5ho in the future will make it look very...

    Another, is this light good question.

    Even on a 6 foot tank those lights will support LPS with no problem. Stagger the bulbs so that they reach the ends of the tank. That retro has...

    Pick Me A Wrasse

    A Christmas wrasse would be a good addition until it gets 7" long that is. I do agree that the tank is already overstocked. If you got rid of those...

    Drain Diameter Question?

    Fastest growth bulbs.

    10,000k XM SE's are very good at PAR, just below the iwasaki's and they don't look like crap, unlike the iwasaki 6500k bulbs. What ballasts will...
