    testing fish tanks???

    that is pretty much it. If you use tap water i suggest testing for some heavy metals like lead and copper.

    lighting

    well the sudden light change isn't natural. What i like to do it turn on my 55 watt pc's with actinic for an hour and then after that turn on my other 55 wat smart lights. i TRY to simulate sunrise/sunset.

    Copepods???

    well to answer your question there little white bugs. They are good for your tank. When you build a refugium you get alot more copepods. Also you shouldn't have to buy them almost every piece of live rock has them.

    Backdrops

    i would go with a plain color back drop. Paint it nice but you cant change it after. Also don't get those stupid ones with the reef pictures on it. I mean come on? Who want to see a picture of a reef when you can build your own <img src="graemlins//silly.gif" border="0" alt="[silly]" />

    Is this a very good price?

    thx alot for your help. Its just if you havn't seen i do live in Montanta, don't get me wrong i love this place. But for somthing out of the ordinary like saltwater fish very few places and they are asses and tend to jack prices. But i'll still look around.

    what lighting would you recomend....

    well it all depends on what kind of reef and inverts u stock. I would definatly get 10k they are pretty. And alway get actinics with regular lights. Check what u want and see how many wpg it needs. On my tank i have pc with two actinics at 40 watts and then i have a smartlight with 55...
