Did you have the magnet mounts or just regular mounts for them? I would offer $350 and I'll pay for shipping if you are interested. I'll call you tomorrow or email me at krashpd@yahoo.com. Also, do you take paypal so that you would get the $$ right away? If so send me your paypal email...

Dont get too worked up about the possibility of hair algae. There are many different inhabitants that will eat it for you including crabs and lawnmower blennys. Hair algae is something you might get from the LR you didn't see anything on. Just keep your tank going and address issues when they...

You tank is looking great! I like the aquascaping that you did. Watch the particulates in the tank and you should see movement over most of the tank. You do want areas with a little less movement than others for fish that don't want to stay in the high current all of the time. Just make sure...

Are you putting it in a new tank? If you are, you will cycle anyway so if it is not entirely cured then it will be by the time your cycle is complete. If you are adding it to an established tank, you can put the LR into a temporary container and test that water with the rock in it every day...

Since you are starting over, you probably don't have to keep the "good" bacteria since it might be seeded with the algae. If you really clean out the old tank including a wipedown with white vinegar then you could start out with new substrate and seed it with new live sand from the LFS. Your...

I am re-making my sump and refugium and had a quick question. I was at a friends house the other day and he had a sump, refug, and was using a cartridge filter. He said that its good to use the filter as well to reduce particulates in the water and make it clearer. Does anyone else do this...

I have one possible buyer. If that dosen't go through I will post here. Krash

It is a 150w MH and it does come with a ballast that is in very good condition. I would be willing to split the cost of shipping to anywhere in the 48 states region. Thanks, Krash You can also email me at krashpd@yahoo.com

Coralife Aqualight Pro HQI Pendent I bought two pendents but decided I want one MH/PC light combined unit and I can only fit one pendent on my tank. My tank sits under the stairs and I don't have enough room on one side to mount a pendent which I found out after I bought them. I have not put...

You tank is looking great. Nice Job!

Thanks, He gets to stay then. Just spent the night changing the rock and taking out the niger trigger and damsel. The trigger tried to get the crab a couple times but that crab is fast. The trigger is heading for the LFS for a store credit. He was going to be risky anyways when I start...

Is the sally light foot crab reef safe? It says that it eats algae so I didn't think it would be a problem with a reef tank but looking for some advise. Thanks, Krash

I've actually been looking at that light but since the auction is so far from closing I haven't bid. It is a nice light. If the Reserve is near the starting bid they I was planning on bidding. It is always hard to say where a auction will end up when it is a week from being over. Good Luck...

Thanks for the help! It saved a poor little crabs life. Krash

I was going to add a Sally lightfoot crab to my tank but worried that my dogface puffer will try to eat it. He dosen't mess with the hermits. Thanks for the help! Krash
