    Redsea max 250 led

    Hi guys! It's been a while. I've purchased a nice redsea max 250. I love it(wish it was bigger)! It had 4 t5 bulbs in the lighting setup....I finally got around to replacing them so I bought 6(the full amount) ati bulbs for it. I put the bulbs in and now only 2 work!! It wasn't the bulbs, so I...

    Biocube 29 mod idea

    Downsized my 40B to the coralife BC29. I'm loving it so far! Fish seem to be adjusting great. I just have the stock pump running at the moment. I'm realizing I will need to add another powerhead. I love the sleek look of the BC with no wires in the tank. So..... My idea was to somehow add...

    New Skimmer, Corals look Great!!

    I can't believe it. I just picked up a used coralife super skimmer 65 from eBay for $30. Didn't realize how big it would be! I hooked it up and although its a bit loud it seems to be working. It's pulled out very dark green liquid. Maybe 1/2 a cup? Before the skimmer, my Duncan's and palys were...

    Reef Octopus BH 2000

    Anyone have one? Would you buy it again? Noise level? Any microbubbles in tank? What size tank so you have it on? I'm thinking of ditching my canister for one of these on my 40 breeder.

    Lifegard SeaHorse Pump?

    Anyone use one? I've found a deal on a used 3/4 HP pump. My dream is to have at least a 180 gallon tank with the sump in basement. Would this pump be sufficient? Overkill? I won't need it for quite some time

    Thinking about throwing in the towel...

    Well I've had my 40 breeder tank for about 4 years now with plenty of ups and downs! I have 7 small fish and a couple softies. We're building a house soon, so I don't want to add anything else. After we move, my dream was to upgrade to a much larger tank with sump in basement. I've been doing...

    ATI led power module

    Just curious.... Anyone have these? How much did you pay? I currently have a reefbreeders led unit w full spectrum colors, but sometimes find myself wishing it was better. Can't seem to get everything to really pop. Eventually I'll be upgrading to a larger tank and I'm wondering if these new...

    Evil Black Sand

    Not sure if you read my other posts in the filtration section. I had a tank crash due to power failure and my neglect. So when I redid the tank I wanted to try black sand. Big mistake!!! I don't know if I got a bad batch or what. It was nothing but cloudy for over a month. I thought it was a...

    Rena or Fluval?

    Well I'm changing my mind again. I was interested in the Fluval G3, But they are pretty pricey! Now I'm going between the Fluval 406 And the Rena XP4. This is for my 40 gallon breeder tank. Which would you choose? Which one is more quiet? Thanks!

    Eggs????

    Could these be eggs! My yellow watchman goby will not leave them and fights off anything else that goes near them. I also have a grey w goby and they are always together. Is this possible? Do you think they will hatch? How long does that take?

    Fed up w canister!! HOB??

    My canister filter is nothing but a nightmare! I had the marineland c 360, and it worked well, but the constant microbubbles drove me nuts! I re did the connections called the company and still the bubbles are there. So then I bought a Chinese canister from eBay. Worked great super quiet no...

    Tank crash!! So disgusted!!

    I've been working 13 hour days lately and my tank has been suffering. My water became very cloudy and my mushrooms were melting. I lost two fish. I have this horrible dark green brown slimy algae on everything! So today's project is redoing the tank. I put all the rocks into a bucket with the...

    This may be dumb......

    I have a small betta tank with an anarchis plant growing like crazy in there. Now I know people feed lettuce to their tangs. Could I put some of this plant in my reef tank? Just a thought. I have to cut some of it out anyway

    The other day my red serpent star lost an arm. Now this morning I find my other star like this!! There are 3 chunks taken out of him!! He's still alive but I don't think he'll make it. Could this all be from my terror fuzzy dwarf lionfish?? What else would do this?
