I have one in my reef ~ he's great. We call him Mr. Personality because he likes to touch our hands if/when they are in the tank.

Everyone is so great here ~ THANK YOU!!

Ok, so Im an idiot. I have two sets of Nova Xtreme HO T50's. The first set, I put the mounting legs on and set up over the tank. BEAUTIFUL. Since I didnt have enough room for my second set of lights at the time, I put it aside until I replaced my HOB with something more streamline and not...

I have a 4" DSB in my 29 ~ and I LOVE it

I agree with Aquaguy ~ anything smaller than a 20 gallon and newbie might not be as quick to notice if things are going south ~ Also, in a 20 gallon immediate action can be more forgiving than in a 6 gallon.

32.5 in 29 gallon reef

No worries ~ might head down there this weekend and a "tank" a look. ;)

Nah, I live in Hampton and generally get stuff online, but Ive heard really good things about them!

Hi Everyone, I was looking at swapping some equipment around in my 29 gallon tank and was calculating the water turnover and it would end up at 32.5x an hour (300gph + 300gph + 340gph = 940gph / 29 gallons = 32.5 ~ which I believe could possibly be overkill ~ LOL). So, as nano reefers, I...

Newspaper is less likely to get stuck in the nooks and crannies of your live rock ;) When I downgraded my 90 to a 30 and moved it 30 miles away, I used a rubbermaid container and put all of my live rock I was keeping in it and put my live sand in a separate rubbermaid container. I had a small...

good luck moving ~ I recently downgraded by 90 gallon reef to a 30 gallon and moved to another house 30 miles away. I think its great you have the coolers, but I would recommend at least getting 1 more. Keeping rock and fish together in 1 cooler ("separated" or not) scares me because all it...

I just ordered your same kind of lights ~ IM SO EXCITED!! Thanks for all of your help so far! Im going to Lowe's this weekend to see if I can find a prettier version of eggcrate or grating to put over the top ~ will let you know how that turns out. ;)

LOL ~ thanks, but I was talking about a photo of the "top of the top" as in "looking down". Sorry! Im worried about my cat trying to lay on top of it... ;)

Hey ~ could you take a photo of the top of your tank so I could see how you have the lighting set up? Also, do you keep an open top or is there grating to keep jumpers in the bay? I decided that I'm going to buy the lights you have. ;) THANKS!!

I just looked up nova extreme pro T5ho's and they dont come in 30". They have nova extreme x2 t5ho's though. What do you guys think of those?
