my refuge is 5"wide X 15"long X 17"tall. My sump is 7.5"wide X 18"long X 14"tall. They took an inch off the length so it fit under my stand, and took one of the wholes away. Thanks!

I FINALLY got my overflow, sump and refugium set up! All comments, suggestions, and GENTLE critiques will be welcomed!

But if I do siphon from the main tank to do my changes, it'll drop my tank level pretty low & expose my corals to air. How long can they be out of water?

This is the build up I'm talking about

So,... It's been two weeks since I've added a sump and refuge to my Biocube. Do I cut the power, let the tank drain, then do the water change from my sump? Or do I cut the power, let the tank drain, mark the water level on the tank, and then do the water change from the tank? What's the...

I wish I could just wipe it away,....but it's on the inside of the tubing. If I pinch the tubing, it comes off the tubing and it looks like snowflakes in my tank. It almost looks like calcium deposits.

Hi guys! Has anyone ever heard of "Activate?" I went to my LFS and asked about the grime that is lining the inside of my vinyl tubing on my return and overflow sides. They recommended to me the Activate liquid. They said it'll help prevent any build up and is beneficial for the biofiltration...

Thanks guys! I appreciate the advice and pix! I'll look for those buds. Just to make sure I understand,...those buds will eventually turn into budding stalks? Thanks again!

Hi guys! Does anyone have a metal halide in/on their BioCube 29 tank? I've got a custom built canopy that I'd like to put halides in. Can you post some pics of your tank and lighting setup? I'm afraid that I'm going to have some dark spots or shadowing in my tank due to my LR setup. Thanks for...

I've got a bit of a "problem" with my frogspawn.... The "problem:" It's grown too big and too fast When I bought it 6-7 months ago, it had two branches, with a head on each branch. Now, I still have the two branches, but have SIX heads. It's gotten so big that it's about to reach my...

Can you please post a pic of your metal halide retrofitted into your hood?

I've got a clown, 6-line wrasse, and a canary blenny in mine.

Also,... Are all 150W bulbs that same size? Meaning,...Will all 150W bulbs fit into a 150W fixture? Thanks!
