After a little over 3 years, I am going to get back into the hobby. I had an amazing 14 gal BioCube that was flourishing until I had to move. None of my corals took well to the move and for the most part ended up dying out . Now, I am starting to take the plunge to set up the tank again with a...

anyone know what size tubing fits into a maxi-jet 1200 ph. Im looking to get one but need some tubing too. Thanks.. hopefully i will be frequenting the boards more often

Well actualy 13. Here are the pics.... The tank is a 14 BioCube with a 70w MH Sunpod. All corals and fish are doing amazing. I cant imagine going back to stock lighting, it doesnt even compare to MH. Please note... I am aware that the right side of my rockwork iis completely bare. I gotta get...

At first I wanted to go with a 10k 150 w MH with actinic supplements for my frag tank. The tank is 30" long and I am not really finding a whole lot out there for my original plans. So my new idea is to go with a 30" 250w 14k MH Current USA sunpod. Even though the bulb is not a 10k do you still...

I am setting up a 20L frag tank and looking for a decent MH setup. If anyone has anything they dont use let me know. Ill pay for shipping.

I searched and didnt see a lot of posts on the subject. I was thinking going bare bottom. lol. I want to use pvc and egg crate for the shelves and thought i could put it a long the bottom as well. What is the most effecient way to place the shelves so you can hold the most coral? For lighting I...

Well its been a while since I have posted some pics. Here is my tank. I treated for flatworms because I was afraid if I killed too many at once it could be bad since they release toxins. Im doing another dose tomorrow and any more if necessary. I am running carbon and syphoning as well. Decent...

Long story short I ran out of RODI water and wont be able to pick more up until tomorrow night. Would it hurt to use Aquafina for a top off so my salt level stays in place? It says it is RO purified. Thanks everyone!

There is talks of the MI gov't shutting down if the states Lawmakers do not reach a decision on a solution to the states budget crisis and $1.7 billion deficit. Since October 1st is the start of the new fiscal year the shutdown will be inacted almost immediatly if a decision is not reached by...

like stated above. I want to callibrate my refractometer because i think it is off. what its the specific gravity of RO? Its not heated, and Its an ATC (autoTempControl). will this make a difference?

As some of you might know I have a 14 gallon biocube. Recently I have been finding myself wanting to upgrade to MH lighting. I was thinking about doing a 70w 14K for a nice crisp and blue tint. I want to try to avoid buying a new hood with a MH in it and was actually looking at the Current USA...

I love the looks and activness of 6-lines and really want to get one. I have 20 lbs of live rock in the tank, if that matters. I also have a Pajama Cardinal in the tank. If I got the 6-line it would be my last fish for the tank. Any thoughts?

I am afraid that these things are bad and will kill everything in my tank... im sure im over reacting. Does anyone know what this is? Thanks!!!

Well the green cane is a LPS. Here are some corals I got at a frag swap about a week ago. All in a BioCube14 with stock lights. Hope you like them!

Does anyone do this? In the past I have just taken a few 5 gallon drinking water drums to the grocery store. Well I dont have those any more and was wondering if it would be odd to bring in 2 5 gallon buckets and fill them up with water. It seems like it might be slightly akward and people might...

I was offered a free bottle of kent lugals iodine for coral iodine dips. The bottle is around 3 - 4 years old. Would it be ok to use this even thoughit is old? Does this stuff go bad? Any experiences? Thanks a lot!

I have had this camera for a few months now. I am finding it kind of diffucult to get the camera to focus on closer shots. Is there a way to get these shots to look nice and crisp? Can you focus manualy with the camera? What settings do you have your camera on? Thanks everyone. Looking forward...

Did any one whatch this show? It is from the same producers and I believe film makers from planet earth. All I can say is it was amazing. The colors of some of those creatures are indescribable. Its on again Sunday, August 26th at 8 if you missed it. For those who did see it, what did you think?

I just finished my cycle which did not take that long due to cured LR and LS. I was looking around in the tank and noticed this snail looking thing. It did not have a shell so maye its a slug? Anyway, I have never seen anything like it before so and hoping it wont eat coral when I get some or...
