Sorry for the dlay in getting back on line. Im from North of Houston. The lights are formosa 96x2 and the stand is about 8' tall. Thanks for the compliments, sure do love this hobbie.

I bought a coulpe pieces of lr from a lfs along with some plants, Two months later my fuge has tons of them. To me they look like little shrimp roaches.Yesterday, while cleaning my tank I pulled a suction tube to clean the sponge thats wrapped around it and they were everywere crawling all over...

A few months back I posted a picture of my new setup. With all the help from everyone, here is how it looks now. New tank with homemade stand.

This is what I did when I first got started about three months ago, with no earthly idea about how to start a saltwater tank. On this site all your questions on how to get started are already answered, if you will do a search down at the bottom, members post pics on everything from building...

Looks to me like a limpet, I have just found five in my tank. I have read that this hitchhicker requires a close watch, they my take a liking to you soft corals, so far they don't seem to be a problem and I thik there kind of cool looking.

Thanks alot, that is exactly what I have from your pictures showing the Hydroids. Are these things bad for my tank?

I have these little white specs on my tanks glass. They look like little stars, real small like lice. I can clean them off real easy, then a few hour or so they show back up. What is this stuff?

Tank looks great! I think the bracing will work well, you should not have any problems. Hey be sure to post the pics on the canopy,I'd like to see it when your done.

I have it down in my fuge system. On my lights I have day and moon lights. Do I run the both at the same time?

Just wanted to know how long my circulation pump is suppost to run? I have a 55 Gal with a Mag 9 pump. I have been running 24/7 is this ok? Also how long do I run my lights? I have power compacts 2x96 watts.

Yea it's stained inside and out, always like working with wood. Thanks for the compliments, I'll keep sending pics as it progresses.

For sure the stress will crack it. I would remove all the water and install a proper brace, steel would work. Ya know you always here even about unlevel stands causing tanks to crack, from stress on the glass.

I'm going to get more this weekend along with a little bit of lr to go in there with it. Yea I'm pretty excited myself to get everything growing!! I'll keep sending pic as it progresses.

Thanks all, I'll clean it up and see how it goes.

I have no problem with circulation. I have two power jets , I think called pengium or something like that , mounted on back of the tank and my pump it's a monster Mag 9 and wants to suck everything out of my sump, had to regulate a good flow so everything could keep up. Still think I have to...
