In the future, after many years of trying different products and ways to kill aiptasia, the best method by far is Injecting the aiptasia with distilled white vinegar. No ill effects on tank and the aiptasia melts immediately.

If you do not use the recommended dose of phosban media, you can add to much, which will pull out the phosphates to fast. This in turn will effectivly kill off the green algae, but with such a fast die off, can cause your tank to go into a cycle. If you add the phosphate through a reactor...

You can put me in, I have always wanted to try this.

as mentioned the heat is easily countered with fans and the proper lighting control. My tank rarely exceeds 78 degrees with the 3 x 400 halides. I dont run a chiller eaither. One thing i do is run the halides at different times and over lap there times. Right now i am running 3.5 hours...

On my old 48" 75 gal, I had 2 x 400 watt metal halide and 2 x 96 watt PC actinics. EVerything grew like weeds, now I just upgaded, I am building my canopy for my new 150 gal, it will have 3 x 400 watt metal halide under spyder reflectors and 2 x 48 T5 actinics. Actinic bulbs can...

I find that the snails you get on E Bay from people on the Carolina coast do very well. They also multiply very quickly. ILyanassa Obsoleta) These snails are excellent and safe for all types of marine and reef aquariums. They don't consume any form of hair algae but they will help keep it at...

Look forward to seeing it in action, I would definatly be interested in the results.

where did you pick up such bulb and how is the performace of it.

$200 seems a little steep for me. A brand new 125 Gallon Aquarium - Black - 72"x18"x22" is $285.99 at a store I can not mention cause this site gets mad, but it rimes with taht pte palce (dot) com. In our local fish club, we usally sell used aqauriums for $ 1 a gallon.

That is where I picked up the skimmer, at marinesolutionsinc(dot)com I saw they had replacement impeller for about $30.

nice looking setup, lets get some pics of the sump area running. And what kind of bulb is that??
