Take what the LFS' say and place it in the back portion of your head...somethings they say when properly sorted can make sense...then read here..a good book...and mix it all together... Grammar..smammar..who cares...as long as we can read what you type and put it together somehow...that is what...

So much learning opportunity here and there...apply that little brain...enhance its growth! Knowledge is the key...

Keep your bio-balls...scrap the denitrator...increase your DSB to about 5.5-6 inches...ensure you have adequate flow in the tank...add macro algeas to your refuge... Stay safe while there....

Maybe it is just me but I dont see a problem with the alk and ca levels you displayed...alk could be just a tad higher upwards more to 4 meq/l, but right where it is now, I dont think I would mess with it....what is the ph?

When I took my damsels out of my 90...I waited until it had been lights off for several hours...then with a flashlight and net...I blinded them and caught them fairly easy.

Can't answer this...I have a new overflow which is 8 inches wide...with a 1" U tube it is rated at 800gph...I have a 6 inch wide with a 1" U tube and it is rated at 300gph...so I do not really know to answer your questions..

With that particular brand of damsels...you can be assured they will be mean...Dominoes...3 and 4 stripes...and I am sure there are others.

Dascyllus aruanus, Humbug...a Damselfish which will grow to be very aggressive.

Even with a give rating of 500"psf...you could possible encounter sag if the span is too wide... If the joists are 2x12's...16 inches or so on center...you will be fine. Even with true 2x10's (true being non dimensioned), I still put a brace in the basement below. I do not know what the tank...

Having the drain pipe lower then the water level will help with the siphon... Even a square tube will allow bubbles to pass through and not build up (despite what was inaccurately stated above) if the water pressure is high enough...which would be about the flow rate as the rated overflow... And...

Very similar (scratch the whatever in the middle string looking thing) design to a couple of manufactured ones...

Because the outside air cools down...thus cooling the inside down... Sponges die due to air bubbles clogging their internal workings...if the internal workings isn't clogged with air...the sponge should survive... To cure your rock...first place it in a bucket...a few pieces at a time...of...

Even with using the Ammo-Lock..you will still get the amonia readings...the ammonia after the ammo-lock is still present...just not supposed to be in a toxic form...

Yes it is feasible...lighting would depend on what type of inverts you intend on keeping...if you are talking crabs and such...normal flourescents would be fine. I am also interested in someday setting up an invert tank...I get a lot of enjoyment out of watching my crabs and stuff...
