My Girl is the best, she hated the time and money I put on my tank but sits next to me when i'm on SWF.com and looks in, she really encourages what i like to do even if it isnt her thing, she even tries to learn things to help me out!! She's great, just talk to your girl, she'll come around...

I believe that LS is much better than CC. But non live sand will become live if you give it the proper time but LS will get you going much sooner.

Just be patient and your tank will cycle, you are still in the process but i promise it will happen if you give it more time, at least a few more weeks.

I agree, growing frags works well, it gets me what i need at the lfs, we just do some bartering!

I have 100# in my 85, but I personally like the look of a lot of rock, just dont over do it, need space for fish if you want any.

Yea, I wouldnt mind having a couple cheap acrylics too! <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

Old Hermit, let me know how it works out for you cuz $10 sounds like a good price!

Thanks a ton Broomer I'll be sure to do this with my tank as well even if it is hillbilly rigged!! <img src="graemlins//urrr.gif" border="0" alt="[urrr]" />

Be sure to be a good skimmer if the LR, and LS is minimal, you'll be amazed at the stuff it pulls out of your tank.

There is no time for other hobbies, my tank's got me freakin' booked up!

His tank looks just like mine, only 3195 gallons bigger, not to mention a lot cleaner!

How can i make a drip system in my reef to drip kalk?? I have no idea how to do this and any info would be helpfull(so would pics!) Thanks <img src="graemlins//silly.gif" border="0" alt="[silly]" />

LFS said flounders would be good to keep the sand clean cuz they always bury themselves. Like everyone else said, make sure you have a deep enough bed and large enough tank, if you do then it'll be cool!

Just be sure to take it slow, like JW said. Do a lil at a time and try to "seed" it with some of the cc. This will save you from losing a lot of the benefical bacteria.

Thanks for the info, i will prolly look into making one(any suggestions??) or I may just give up and buy one, either way thanks again!

What kind of setup do you use to drip?? Everyones prolly got something a lil different.

Me percula eats outta my hand. He's great!! :p

Hopefully it is still gettin used to the new digs. Just give it a lil more time and it'll pull out of it. When you start to see the ribs and the fish becomes compressed you have a problem.

Be sure to acclimate inverts slowly when the salinity is up, if you tried adding a blue star with your previous salinity it wouldnt have a chance.

Kris has a good point, death is inevitable <img src="graemlins//dead.gif" border="0" alt="[dead]" /> but through studying and a lil trial and error this hobby will quickly become rewarding.
