I figured not to use higher powered lighting up top to keep algae down to a minimum and set up some macro algae with higher power lighting down below in the refugium.

I've decided to set my 120g back up and this time around i'm just gonna do FOWLR (just a few pieces of large LR) My tank is 4x2x2 with a 30 gal sump, ASM skimmer and running a Rena canister filter My stock list in order of introduction to the tank would be: 1. Hippo tang or yellow tang (both are...

great, thanks for the info, we just want to get the tank up and running this weekend and are short the return pump.

Hey guys, All my co-workers pitched in and we are upgrading our office tank to a 75g. I am building a sump for the tank and currently we are using a CPR CS50 overflow. I know it's probably underrated (300 gph) for a 75g tank, will have to upgrade it later. Anyways, I need to purchase a...

My lighting is 4 VHO bulbs 2 white, 2 atinic. Each bulb is 110 watts. I have a 30 gal refugium below that has 20,000 candle light (I forgot what it was) light that turns on at night and stay on all night for reverse lighting. It's one of those out door security lights from Home Depot. Keeps...

Yep... that's me... holy crap.. that was a year ago. I'll have to plan a trip to Cali and check out your new tank... hopefully by then you'll have your shark.

Sweet tank dude... when i'm in the area i'll have to come check it out

My suggestion.. don't mix an Angel with a Lion... the Angel will nip the Lions fins. So you gotta decide one or the other. Don't use the crushed coral as your substrate.... deffinetly go with the Live sand and Live rock. Deffinetly let your tank cycle and mature and don't add all those fish...

2 more pics.... one at lights out and one the first day I got the clown/LTA

My 120 is back up and running after moving it 500 miles. I don't know what to catogorize this tank as, but the main fish in the tank is my lion. He's about 10+ inches. My newest addition is my copperband butterfly which has the task of cleaning up all the aptasia in the tank. He finally...

yeah, Vegas sucks, I just moved away from there. I never bought anything from any stores there in town. Way over priced. I bought all my stuff from this site.

So any suggestions about my filtration? Should I even bother getting the canister?

yes, I have seen some pretty large Clown Triggers, I'd find him a new home before he reached that size.

I have a 120 gallon tank 48x24x24 with a 29 gallon sump. I just use powerheads in the tank and an ASM G2 skimmer in the sump. Do I need any more filtration? I was thinking of a Rena Canister. I'm probably going to add 100 lbs of LS and 100 lbs of LR. This is what I want to keep: Clown...

I actually bought my Leopard back in 1991 in California at a pet shop in Glendora for $50. He was about 11 inches, awesome fish. That was back when they were legal and yes, the minimum length now is 36 inches.
