I go double as many people do. Mc

Are you going to have a skimmer? Mc

I think it is only cost effective for tanks requiring big chillers like >1/3 HP. My next house will definitely have that and solar. Mc

It will work and has been done before. Mc

Did this ever go anywhere? I just found this thread. Temp at 5 feet in NC is 55 degrees. There is some kind of new plumbing tubing that is guaranteed for 25 years buried underground and is less than a $1 foot. I have no idea how to do the calculations since I don't know the exchange...

Originally Posted by Kevin34 how bad were your flatworms? About a year or so ago in the frag tank, they were pretty bad. At all times I could see hundreds through out the tank. In another tank, they were very sporatic, but I nuked it and found hundreds more than I couldn't see. In the...

See my other post on your other thread about it. I don't think you will be happy. Mc

Originally Posted by rtspeed Is a 70w HQI sunpod enough lighting for a 29 gallon biocube? You will not be happy. I tried it and had to put 130 W PCS with it. Finally ditched the whole deal and upgraded. IMO 70W will look dim and not grow the more light intensive corals. For me, the main...

Bronco, Just caught up with your build. I believe I am now convinced I will scrap the build and buy my 10 foot tank! I would love to see your list of "what was I thinking?" and the other things that didn't work and did work as far as plumbing, flow, wiring, equipment ect.... Great job! You...
