    You can add the water to any where in the system you want here is what I have. It’s a light switch incased in the blue boxes with a cover. Then I screwed it to the side of my sump and drilled a hole in the end of the switch and attached an eye loop screw in the end of the switch. Then I use...

    I like the idea of epoxing the rocks together but would you let all your live rock die to do this? or is there some glue you can use underwater?

    Ok I am going for the 1000+ gallon tank! I think 5’x9’x3’ with a 3/4" but most likely 1" thick sheet of Acrylic built into a wall. 5*9*3*7.47=1008 (is that right) I still kind of want to do the rock structure in the middle or is that a bad idea? I have 250 lbs of live rock now I will just use...

    Chain CatShark

    One web site that said they had them in a tank at 70 deg. they said the hardest part about keeping them is getting a healthy species. I dont know but some one smarter than me could probably tell us if they could be aclamated to 79 deg and shallow depths. or could my Banded be adjusted to 75 to...
