get the t-5 with ind. reflectors, u might be better off buying a fixture with them, since they're like $20 each. So that $80 extra.

Their 14k right? I used them for a day but it was to much blue with the actinic. I dont think the light is the problem. but if ur water is ok then try and accom. the corals to the new light. 6hr one day 7,8,9 etc. That might help.

look at aquatraders they have the same things but cheaper and without the catfish sticker. LOL

wow, thats alot of zoos!! beautiful!! very nice collection

no it wasnt towards u, it was about the one whose giving u adivce and doesnt own a tank. i know u have one. it came out wrong sorry. if and when u do frag it dont break it cause u can get cut on the skeleton its very sharp. u can get nasty infections from corals. i would use a dremel or wet tile...

i ran pc for a while, then i got mh and wow what a difference. i will never go back!! get it. with the set up.

do u run a skimmer on the tank?? or just the big emperor on it? looking good. i just started a 10gal up too. but i really dont wanna have to take water from my 55gal every week so i was hopeing on getitn a remora on it. is that a monti digita? just wondering i have the same light. and i love...

they make the nano cube with the aquapod HQI now i saw it at that fishplace for $299. im sure its on their site. but nice tank, looks great. did u ever think about fragging that frogspawn, that this is getting big. how can u spend ur time on a message board without owning a tank urself??? i know...

yea electronic PH testers are really good if they are calabrated(sp) right. i really dont think purple up would rasise ur ph that much. u coud get a cheap electronic tester on [hr] .

its a little high 8.2 is around the right ph, i really dont know what causes it to be high. maybe to much buffer. or alk is too high. are u useing any additives??

retest. or take to lfs to test for u

i was going to get the asm g1 i think, i was at that fish place so i got to open and touch both of them. and it seemed kinda "cheap" so i got the 65gal needle wheel. i got home and hooked it up(easy) and with in 2-3hrs it was pulling crap out. i am really happy with it.

yea i have the 2ft fixture. i love it. the aqua cool bulbs are really nice, but if u are going with 2 actinic then i think its to much bulb. upgrade to a 10k bulb. or u could use the 14k and one 10k and one actinic. it doesnt come with metal halide bulbs, u have to pay extra for them. go to...

its only a 15gal. they is no way its tempered. they is no reason to temper it. if it doesnt say its not temper. they put a nice big sticker saying tempered do not drill.

i did the same thing, about 5 times!!! it does hurt!! it went away after about 2-3days. it stopped hurting after about 1hour. u will be fine.
