So this first post may be long so bear with me. Day_1 I am planning on purchasing a 45g cube (it is not formally considered a nano I know) that will be used to house a small variety of fish and hopefully corals. It will be my first attempt at keeping both as I started this hobby with a 65g tank...

I have been reading up on and researching hair algae issues for the better half of a day now and have found some great advice and some solid stand by's (i.e mexican turbos, tiger cowrie, water changes etc).. After all of this I came to the question of okay, well what to do with my lighting...

I believe the brand of the first on is Pro Clear made by a small company in FL and is part of a wet dry system, I have the same one that now flows into my sump had to call them to find out the gph rate and I believe it was 475 gph.

I agree with tlsohio if the hair algae is a big problem not just a minor thing I don't know that I would want to chance it by moving the LR into the new tank and having it come back there.. Also with the second tank being new the tank has not had a chance to build up any sort of denitrification...

I use eggcrate, salt does build up but not as fast as you'd think.. And I know either Joe or Spanko have a post up on the topless thread about making your own netting top.

Yes I have heard the same..

Unfortunately not, it is one of my flaws.. My lfs does quarantine the fish for me after I purchase the fish, but wouldn't work so well for this endeavor. It would have to be weened onto prepared foods in the DT :(

What does it mean when these little guys decide to chill on my LR vs burying themselves in the sand for long periods of time? About 1/5 of my small regular nassarius snails have up and decided that this may be fun, and I have no idea why.. Any thoughts or knowledge? Thx

Yeah, but its always the fear of the unknown and the possibility that I cant get him to switch.. We will see..

Yeah, I think that is going to be the overall feel of this thread, but had to ask?

Okay, well good to know I may give it a try and see what comes of it, if I decide to go with one..
