Im in the same boat as you. Get some acrylic dividers and 100% silicone to hold them in place. Next depends on your tank, if it is not pre-drilled or you can drill it because it has stuff in it already, you will need an overflow box (I would suggest lifereef). You will also need a pump to return...

I would recommend glass....it keeps bad UV rays out that can burn and damage corals. Its very unsafe to run MH without it.

A place to store your plants and increase water volume. Do a search on fuges and you will find more than you wanted to know....

I second the Aqua C remora, I use it on my 29 and its been excellent so far. If you search around online you can find it for a decent price, around $175 or so with the Maxi Jet included.

once a week

Depend on what type of tank you wish to have, it seems you have a FOWLR right now, which means you can upgrade to reef with the right equipment. Also, look up adding perhaps a sump or fuge or both in the DIY forums, this will give you tons to work on. Tank looks good btw, however, if you plan on...

Although they are a little out of your range ($250-300) Ive heard the units they sell on this site are excellent. Search around the web and write down a bunch of different kinds and prices and post again and see what people think of specifics.

I ordered LS from this site about a month ago, and yes I recieved free shipping, 49.99 or whatever is exactly what you will pay. It has been fine for me, I have experienced no problems with it. They pack it in water so there is no die off, so 2 days for delivery is no problem either.

100% silicone is definately a safe bet.

You could also buy base rock ($1-$1.50 lb) and it will become live overtime. This can take up to a year or more, but it will become live at some point and is extremely cheap.

One more question.....where is a good place to order mag pumps or are they about the same price anywhere?

Aight, makes sense now....thanks for your help.

I'd say it has to pump approx 4' Also, this may be a stupid question, but what type of plumbing should I use. The fuge is below the main tank, but not directly, its off to the right side. Will I need flexible tubing or can I just angle straight PVC?

I am using a reeflife overflow box which has a 1 in male piece for tubing........so I guess 1 inch. I am not sure exactly what kind of plumbing I should use.....PVC, something that can bend.... I also dont know what you mean by head weight:confused:

I am doing a 10g fuge for a 29g display and will use a lifereef overflow box system. What kind of pump should i get for 10x turnover??? Also, where is a good place to buy tubing and bulkheads?

I have a 29g tank, and I'd like to add both a sump and a fuge. The problem I have is space, I only really have enough base room for a 10g size tank. Would getting a 15 high leave enough room to incorporate both? I could also make a few shelves and put one above the other (have 2 10 gal, one on...

Get the Remora, worth the money and works great. I run one on my 29g, no problems, great water quality.

I currently have a 29g FOWLR, and looking to uprade to a reef. However, before I do this, I want to add at least a fuge to my tank. I at least want to add a fuge, and possibly a sump/fuge combination. What size tank do I need to do this, and is it feasable to do both, or just the fuge. Also, if...

To have a successful reef you definately want both, if you have to choose now between one or the other, get the protein skimmer.

My phosphates are high, what is the best method for lowering them?
