Have the 24" version, not sure how different from the 36" it is but I don't use glasstops either. The heat vents are on the sides for this model, just slits in the plastic. I Have it mounted on the legs that come with it and it just sits on the tank. If you could hook into those side vents you...

Nova Extreme has a 30" as well. I picked up a 24" and it's legs do extend the 30" length to hold onto the tank. As far as the the light, it fills the tank.

That is awesome!!! Great looking custom tank. How'd you get those plastic drawers water tight? The obvious answer would be silicone, but seems like it'd take a lot. Definitely keep this updated with lots of pics

Ahhhh bummer, did he survive?? Did you grab any pics of him before (if he didn't survive)? Pics always good....

Have to add, power to the batchelor!!! And us 20 some year old guys Oh and thought of trying putting a bunch of weights, or salt, or sandbags, and just increasing the weight to see if the floor bows/creaks/blows into a million pieces?

Ooooh neat stuff, what kind of lighting are you using? No sharks??

Howbout the MH plus a 2X24 Nova Extreme HO with 2 actinc bulbs. Best of both worlds

Fish may be stressed - could because of disease, or if you're putting your hand in there too much Not enough oxygen in the water - do you have something to disturb the surface of the water? A simple hang on the back filter you can buy at Walmart does the trick, air pumps can work (though rarely...

Try out that LED bulb yet?

What's the problem with using a fixture like that? Bulb's only care if they have correct voltage and wattage don't they? (I'm asking cause I really don't know)

Real Fireworms, which are rare (1% what I've been reading) will eat through coral. Bristle Worms are great for everything else, but there's such a variety was just wondering if anyone was familiar with this type I have. And I've never actually seen a Fireworm, hard to find pics on the internet...

Well we all have them, and I'm not jumping on the Fireworm bandwagon yet. Just have a couple of these that I'm hoping won't be trouble. I only have a small mushroom and some Xenia, haven't seen them getting nipped yet. Biggest one is looking bout 5 to 7", I just noticed he either has a twin or a...

Call manufactuer and ask if you can order one? Like Instant Ocean (or whatever your favorite brand might be). Or just give an internet vendor a call and see if they can special order. Kind of obvious choices, but all I got.

Couldn't he just find a way to raise it above the water line? 6 inches? 12 inches? Whatever is needed. Then if he grabs some SPS he can just drop the light. Oh and a NO flourescent light? MH maybe?
