Iam using a Amiricale protein skimmer now my self.. I dont think that its the best, but its getting the job done.. I'am here trying to get opinions on different skimmers my self for a FOWLR tank...

Thanks LouNY.... will do ! ;)

Opinions please !! I'am considering purchasing a ETSS Super Reef Devil w/pump for my 155 gal. FOWLR tank. This skimmer turns over 300 gallons per hour. I plan on using this in my Amirical sump... Pro's / Con's ??

Rye Bread.. thanks for the reply, I have read that the Lookdown would do fine in a 125 gallon or better. I have a 155gal... As of right now, all I have in my tank is what's listed. Not to aggressive. Iam still having problems locating the look down for a reasonable price. I found one site that...

Does any one know of a site where I can order a pr. of the Thread Fin/ Look Down fish for a reasonable price.

Hey Lou NY... Isnt there a place there in Staten Island that has live rock ?? I'am from NY and was told that there is a nice LPS with live rock there.

Adding my 2cents, feed the bamboo shark 1inch strips of squid. It may take up to 3 weeks for the shark to start to eat. The shark can survive off the yoke from the egg sack for about 3 weeks or so. With the 1inch of squid put it on the end of a feeder stick and wiggle it in front of the shark...

unfortunately, I had to break down my tank to get those pesky DAMSELS out.... "Good Luck"

Adding my 2cents...lol, them dang on "Damsels" are a horror to tanks. They will be very territorial in your set up. And futher more they are very impossible to catch... good luck ! :)

Terry B, I dont have a "Refractometer" as of yet, although Iam working on it. I have to do some thing cause I had a Ich outbreak on a New Powder Blue in the display tank, which since died. I separted the rest of my fish in the hospital tank, while the shark remains in the display tank. In...

When I'am running the hypo on the other fish in the Hospital tank, should I be using chemicals to cure them of the ich ? And the Powder Blue died today.. :-( I still have the shark in the display tank, cause I dont know how to handle him for Ich. He doesnt show no signs and besides, the...

My Powder blue has Ich, and he was in my Display tank with the other fish as well as my Bamboo Shark... My question to the people who know sharks: Can I run hypo. on the Bamboo Shark, without causing damage to the shark ? I have the hypo tank set up with the community fish in it. Dont know if...

With what I have on my tank, I would like to be able to bring out the colors of the fish more with better lighting. Are there any suggestions on the lighting situation with cost in mind?..LOL I love that blue look when I go the local fish shop. Can I have that in my aquaruim.. ? :rolleyes:

Well, I want to upgrade my skimmer. The one I have now came with the Amircale Wet/Dry system.. Any suggestions on the best for my system... I noticed that the Berlin Skimmer needs to be powered by a pump. My question is: Are there any other Skimmers out there as good with out need the pump ? I...

Yes... I was talking about the pad before the Bio-Balls... *Thanks*

I was wondering if the Amiricale pad on my salt water hook up should be cleaned ? If so, when and how ?

My Bamboo Shark has hatched since Fathers Day this year. He/She has been eating squid fine. I was last instructed to feed the shark with 1 inches pieces of squid, wiggling it in front of the shark. My question is: Is this the way the shark will be fed for ever wiggling food in front of it...

I'am not pro in the shark area, Iam learning as I go along also but, an egg can cost any where from $40 dollars on up. Depending where ya get the egg from. If you get the shark already hatched, its normally a little more. Its been said a tank of 180 gal. or more is suggestable. I have mine...

I have a Bamboo Shark as well, hatched on fathers day. I read previously post and they suggested that you should wait a couple of weeks before trying to feed your shark. When you descide to feed him, I used a straw with a slit on one end and put an inch long piece of squid on the straw...

In the hospital tank, does it have to have a fish in there to keep the good bacteria alive ? I have it running now, just with the "hot penguin filter" with water from my main display tank. Is this enough ???
