what are you keeping in your tank? Do you find any limitations? How is the heat? Do you have it hanging or sitting on the tank?

My tank is 18 inches deep. Would the 150Watt HQI be able to penetrate that depth?

I'm converting my 80 gallon to a reef and was looking at the Current USA lighting system. Anyone have any advice? Is 150 Watt enough or should I look for something with 175Watts. I also read somewhere that VHO actinics are better than Power Compacts. Is there a reason why? Any advice before I...

I currently have an 80 gallon FOWLR with crushed coral. I have a sailfin tang, a royal gramma, a gold maroon clown, a pygmy angel and a small harlequin tusk. I'm thinking of purchasing some low light requirement corals like mushrooms. Would a sand bed be advantageous over the crushed coral?

I thought you shouldn't put more than one wrasse in a tank. Does the tusk count as a wrasse since it's in that family?

I just purchased a Harlequin Tusk and put him in my 80 gallon with a sailfin tang, a cuban hog and a maroon clown. What other fish could I put in with this mix? I also have a clown trigger but I'm thinking of removing him since he is aggressive with all the other tankmates.

I just installed a SCWD using an Eheim 1262 on my 80 gallon tank. Should I leave it on all the time or put it on a timer?

I'm using Tetra AquaSafe to remove chlorine and heavy metals. Is there something I should use instead?

I added water conditioner when I did my water change but now my Remora Pro is skimming like crazy. I have almost 3 gallons of clear water that was removed from the skimmer. I've heard water conditioners can do this. Should I shut off my skimmer for a few days when doing water changes?

are the Iwakis quiet? I'm looking for a quality external pump that is good with electricity and quiet that pumps 700GPH.

could I use a Mag 7 externally for this or should I use a more expensive pump like Iwaki?

What external pump should you use? I have a 75 gallon tank. I read that Mags shouldn't be used externally for salt water.

forgive me for asking.. but when you closed loop do you mean an external water pump in your sump pumping water to the SQWD?

what about those wave makers? I was also looking at the SCWQ device. Decisions decisions. I guess I'll just get a couple of powerheads. Maybe down the road I'll connect them to a wave maker.

I'm only running an AquaC remora pro with a mag 3 on my 75 gallon tank with live rock. Any recommendations to increase water movement?

i purchased the skimmer last week. It's great but i bought mine with the drainer hole in the collection cup. I like it but the plumbing for the hole reduces the amount you can raise the collection cup.

did you purchase it? How do you like it?

Does anyone have experience with the prefilter box attachment used with the AquaC Remora pro? Is it really worth the $40? My concern is that it will be a headache since water will evaporate from it so quickly and I'm afraid the pump will run dry.

I've narrowed it down between the Aqua C ev120 and the EuroReef ES5-3 for my 80 gallon tank. I'm putting it in a 15 gallon sump. Is there a major difference between these that should sway me to one side or the other?

I have an 80 gallon tank and I want to put a sump underneath. I think I could fit a 20 or 29 gallon tank under the stand. Would I be able to run a Mag 5 pump for the return or would I need a bigger sump for that?
