    Cool Picture

    Just an accident. I was trying some different things to make my pics of the tank turn out better and placed my finger over the flash. I guess the image was caught off of the reflection of the glass. Just thought that it was pretty cool.

    Nitrite is high

    That is a great setup. I can't believe you can fit all of that under your cabinet. I am sorry to hear about your anemone. I love the idea of the Mangrove plants in the 10Gal. What did you use to cut the glass? Again I appreciate all of the info. I have decided that I am going to go with a...

    Nitrite is high

    That is a great setup. Do you think that I would have any problems recreating that with a pump to siphon the water out of the tank instead of using gravity fed draining?

    Nitrite is high

    Thanks for the ideas. I am just afraid to cut my Glass tank. I think what I will do is get a pump to siphon out the water and then one to pump it back into the tank.

    Nitrite is high

    You are right - it is very addicting!!! :joy: I am not sure what skimmer I am going to get. I have been looking at the SeaCone and the Red Sea Berlin Hang-On types. The problem is that my wife won't let me get one yet. I have a feeling it is because she wants to get me one for my b-day in 2...

    Nitrite is high

    Thanks for the advise Sly. The filtration is about 450gal Per Hour with the Penguin and the Emperor. I guess that my sand bed is in between the SSB and DSB at around 2 - 2 1/2 inches. I do not clean the sand bed. The pictures that you saw were a few weeks old. The tank looks much better now...

    Nitrite is high

    Hello all, I need some advice on how to get my nitrates lower. They are consistently testing at the 40ppm range. The other test form ammonia, PH and Nitrite are perfect. Thanks for the help guys.

    Plexi vs Glass for Light spectrum

    I do not have a canopy for my tank that is why I am using the cover. I am not sure that I understand the eggcrate? Isn't that what you put on your bed? Just curious how the lights wouldn't melt it, and how the light would pass through it. Sounds cool though. Do you have any pics????

    Plexi vs Glass for Light spectrum

    My question is about using Plexiglas for the cover of my tank????? I am upgrading from regular 30 Watt florescent Coralife 50/50 light to the 36" Coralife Aqualight PC with the Coralife Aqualight Mounting Legs. The glass cover for my tank is not clear, but looks like a show door (the one that...

    Skimmers

    To me you can never overkill with the quality of a skimmer. That one is great. You can also look at the Sea Clone, and Read Sea Berlin Protein Skimmers. I have heard great reviews on the Red Sea Skimmers. Good Luck!!!:D

    Plexi/Acrylic Vs. Glass

    Thanx for all the advice. I am sure that I will use the 1/4 inch. My tank is a 58 gallon Oceanic that is only 36 inches. I don't think that I will have a problem with sagging. Do you know if plexi lets the same light spectrum through as glass does? That was my only other concern - loseing...

    Crab ID. This is a good one :)

    I have the same mystery crab in my tank. I am not sure what he hitched a ride on, but I never bought him. I think he came out of the LS. When I first saw him he was very small and almost clear. Just a guess....
