    what is the best sump design for my tank?

    OK this is obviously just a quick sketch and is in no way fit to scale or anything, but just trying to get a rough idea. How does this sketch look so far?

    what is the best sump design for my tank?

    Awesome, that's kinda what I was hoping for. I've never really dealt with sumps before, so I know the basics on what it is, but that's about it. Well thank u for sharing that design with me. I think I will base mine off of yours and go from there! Thanks!

    My 65g reef diary

    Here is the tang. Really wish I didn't have to get rid of him, he's a really good looking fish. You can also see my other frogspawn in the background. Star polyps added 2-18-12 Yellow watchman, fun little fish to watch

    My 65g reef diary

    125g reef tank busted!

    I could be wrong but I think those Colts are actually Kenya Trees.  They look like Kenya Trees to me at least.  That would explain why he/ you have so many.  John I kinda wondered if it was something other than colt. It looks a little different than the little colt that I have. Are kenya trees...

    Would anyone in the Ohio area want a free yellow tang?

    I asked about this in another thread, but I wanted to create one specifically geared towards finding this guy a bigger home. So here is the situation: I received a call from my dad saying his friends 125g reef tank had split at the silicon, and lost almost 100g of water onto the floor. He wanted...

    125g reef tank busted!

    And per Erics request (oh who am I kidding, I woulda posted these anyways, lol), here are some of the nice pieces that I picked up in this killer deal. I think this is my favorite, but I need some help ID'ing it. When I first pulled it out if the bucket, it was so shriveled that I almost didn't...

    Id be pretty willing to bet that it is salt creep as well. Man I hate that stuff. Lol

    125g reef tank busted!

    Wow, what a shame to see a fellow reefer give up. I read Yellow tangs get real mean over territory. I only have a 48 inch tank so it isn't suited for him...hope you find him a home. Well its not that he's giving up because of this incident alone. He said he has kept tanks for more than 30 years...

    125g reef tank busted!

    And here is the 2nd one im worried about. This im a little more worried about for a few reasons; they look worse off than the plate, they have showed no improvement since day 1, and there is alot of it on many different rocks that he gave me. I've never dabbled in leathers before so I don't know...

    125g reef tank busted!

    Ok, here is the first piece I am hoping will pull thru. When I first pulled this out if the bucket o goodies that the guy gave me, I could see most of its skeleton, and could only see a slight bit of green still left. I almost didn't even put him in because I thought it was already dead, but I...

    125g reef tank busted!

    Its not a 90, its only a 65. Like I said right now he is doing great, getting along with everyone, continuously picking off the rocks, and seems very happy. But due to personal experience, and story I read on here, im afraid after some time, he wont be as happy, and begin to stress becausethe...
