You don't have to worry about your overflow working faster than your pumps... If you have a 1200gph overflow, you'll be ok with anything 1200gph and below for a return pump.... The reason for that is an overflow is rated up to a certain gph rating, it will however accept anything below it...

Well, I wake up this morning to find a small area of water on my floor. I couldn't figure out for the life of me where it was coming from but I finally took a look between my tank and the wood lip of my stand and bingo, a thin layer of water ! I have a 55gal reef tank, and I have a question...

ok,,,, how about this lol that's a yellow tube anemone

Do they Look like this: or this: If its the 1st picture, then those are called yellow zooanthids. Not something to be worried about, but something to be happy about lol. It would seem you got a free coral from somewhere. If it is picture number 2, then you have Aiptasia anemones. These are...

Aqua C Remora, its a hang on back model. Just Plug it in and let it skim. No adjustments necessary, which is why it was my 1st protein skimmer and I've never replaced it. It does its job great, just make sure you get the one with the maxijet 1200 pump. You will see that a lot of people back...

Just cover the mouth of the aptasia with the aptasia x, as soon as I'm finished hitting all the aptasia I need to I just turn everything back on, I keep LPS, softies and SPS and never had any problems.

true, I really have to get a Magnesium kit, but I've been keeping SPS for a while now with no issues, so I must be doing ok in that department, what I think it is now are my SPS frags are no longer frags, they are growing well, and I think they are sucking calcium and alkalinity out of the water...

I know someone here uses this 2 part solution....

Hello all, I just started adding the ESV B-Ionic 2 part alkalinity and calcium supplement. I have only done it about 3 days now, but I noticed my calcium is on point at 440ppm, but my alkalinity was low at about 6.5 . My question is can I use just my alkalinity (part 1 ) supplement by itself...

i have a 3 and a 2 in my 55 and i'm successfully keeping Sofites LPS's and SPS's... i'd say go with that.

Patriot, just sit back and relax. Your tank is brand new, I am willing to guarantee this is the problem. This will go away in time. Don't do anything drastic to change your system. Let it mature the way you set it up to, it'll be fine. -josh

+1 on that one. How long has your 55gal been established? As far as I'm concerned if your tank is cycled then whatever filtration method you're using has the necessary buildup of bacteria for a 55gal system. What you need to do is salvage as much of your 55 gallons of old water as possible, and...

Mollies do very vell in saltwater. They grow in size much faster and the grow larger, in addition, for some reason they produce more fry much more frequently than in freshwater.

Me on my Harley Just me Just my bike Hope you all like em lol. Let me know what you think.

I'm in New Bedford, MA. I usually go to Sea Creature aquarium on mineral spring ave. in R.I. There's really few stores I'd go to around the southcoast area, but john at sea creature is really good and has great livestock. I am however interested in the store you go to sk8fergy. What's the name...

Wow beautiful tank, one thing to remember though are that all of those tang will grow. BIG.... I think you should hold off because those tangs will easily take up your tank once their of size.... In my opinion that is.... Beautiful tank nonetheless!!!!

ehh, sixline wrasses can get kind of big. You'd need to move it after a while. But if its small now, go for it.

abnormally large sweeper tentacle or detritus discharge???

Hey! I resent that comment lol... I have a blue hippo whose name is Dory... At least she's not in a 12g nano, but my girlfriend did name it though lol....

thanks for the replies everyone! Looks like the lawsuit is out of the question. It just pisses me off that they'll get away with this garbage merely because we were able to catch it, like it takes them off the hook for something. I'm calling them today, and nwdyr i'm going to mention your case...
