    HELP! with a loud pump

    Sounds good. So, where does one get Spa Flex? I just called the local Home Depot and they tell me they've never heard of it!!!

    HELP! with a loud pump

    I just purchased and installed a new Panline pump for my tank, replacing an older Little Giant. The pump itself is very quiet, HOWEVER, it is vibrating my sump so badly that the roaring noise is horrible! I have the entire setup sitting on 3/4-inch foam soundproofing panels and nothing is...

    Need lights and skimmer.....

    Wow! That's a great price. I can't find a new one for anything less than $110 PLUS shipping. So, I'll put it on E-bay this weekend as I had planned. If you decide you want it let me know.

    Need lights and skimmer.....

    I have a CPR2 that I just took off of my 29 gallon tank (I moved up to a 150!). I was about to put it on ----, but it's yours for $75 plus shipping. It's in excellent condition (just has some spots of corralline on it that I can't get off.)

    THANK YOU!!!!! My Christmas present is my next fish- so I'll start looking for a beautiful raccoon butterfly! My husband was hoping we could add something yellow next.

    another fish order question

    I wouldn't add them all at the same time- I'm figuring over the next six months! I just want to make sure that I add them in the proper order so that I don't get too many territorial problems.

    another fish order question

    I currently have two ocellaris and 3 chromis in my 150 gallon tank. I'd like to eventually add this list of fish- but is this an ok stocking order? They all seem to be fish that "should be the last fish added" or will they not all get along? purple tang raccoon butterfly flame angel emperor...

    Calcium Levels HIGH

    Can I just tag along with a similar question? I did my weekly water tests last night and my Ca is 500 with alk 2 and pH 8.4 - my pH has always been nice and steady at 8.0 with alk 4 and Ca in the low 400s - what do I do to get my readings back to normal???

    How long for frozen shrimp???

    so, what you're saying is that I can order my live rock right now, put it in my brand new tank and just feed the tank daily - and will end up with same results as I did when I cycled my tank last year? (I cycled with 1 shrimp - took about a month, then added cured LR and waited for it to cycle -...

    Cutting Corners

    You can add base rock now - it doesn't have to cure and won't affect your cycle. I started with 30 pounds of base rock and 25 pounds of LR in December and now 90% of my rock is covered with beautiful coralline.

    cycling with shrimp

    Does the shrimp need to be raw? Or can I use frozen/pre-cooked shrimp? Or, could I use a piece of raw clam or crab?

    plumbing and lighting question

    I'm setting up a 150 gal. It's an older AGA with two small overflows. I want to use Durso standpipes in the overflows, but I couldn't get the standard durso to fit into the overflows. So, I sized it down to fit into the overflows and now my overflows can't keep up with my return pump. Any...

    more than one bangaii???

    I'd be putting them in a new 150 gallon. The only other fish that will be there are two clowns that have been around for about a year. I had thought to put the cardinals in my 10 gallon QT right now while my 150 cycles, but perhaps I'll wait on them and use my 30 for a QT after I move...

    Any thoughts on stocking order? The large angel will be very last- sometime in the next 6-12 months.

    Need Opinions for a Stocking List

    Yep, FOWLR - I have about 75 pounds that has been in my tank for almost a year now and I'll be adding 75 pounds more of LR and 50 pounds of base to the new tank. I have one ricordia with about 12 polyps that is doing well, I'm going to move it over and hope no one eats it, or I may move it to my...
