Green bubble corals are awesome and under actinics they look amazing.

Just keep the room lit during the day and they should be fine. if the room is lit with natural light then the tank should be pretty bright anyways.

Originally posted by natelevi a solid Oak stand that was hand crafted by my father exactly one year ago the stand alone cost me around 2 grand to build I built a 125 gallon Oak stand for under $150.00, and it is beutiful. I only bring this up because people read other threads on everything...

Originally posted by dhraako I heard if you actually blend a shroom (stick it into a blender and turn it on) and them poor the new substance in the water...shrooms will blossom all over the tank I know that this works with sponges.

Originally posted by Birdy I would recommend a refugium though. Refugiums are nice but if you don't have the bioload to support a refugium then you are just wasting money, but if you plan on using a sump then a refugium is easily incorporated and probably is a better choice than bioballs...

DrkDweller. How long has your system been up and running?

AND THE INSANITY AND HORROR BEGINS

Ars you experiencing problems with your tank. More frequent water changes require fewer suppliments. I will tell you my schedule. 125 gallon reef biweekly 10 gallon water changes 15 mils of reef complete twice a week ( doses calcium,magnesium and stronium in proper ratios ) teaspoon of marine...

If you make a quick clean cut there should not be much slime. Once you move that rock out of the tank the mushrooms will close up really quick and then you won't be able to cut them. You will have to saw them which will produce alot more waste even after the rock is put back into the tank than...

Any slime should be removed by your protein skimmer if you have one. It is much easier to cut them if you leave them in the tank and they are extended

I don't see a real problem if your PH reaches 8.2 during the day

Tahoe has very hard snow and the powder is usually very shallow and very wet. I grew up outside of Tahoe and after skiing in Colorado tahoe was a real dissapointment. If you want a great hike that tracks up an awesome waterall for a couple miles then hike TWIN BRIDGES about half an hour west of...

Originally posted by natelevi 24 pounds I will sell for 7 dollars a pound thats a great price I suggest that you do a search around the board and see what stuff is going for. I know that you mean to give good deals but you really are astronomical in your asking prices for used stuff...

I love the more swimming room, less rock appraoch:jumping: :cheer:

I use the GLACIER water machines. I also have used the SAFEWAY water machines.

Originally posted by Birdy . Another concern that I have is that if you use mainly baserock at first you will need at least one of those set's of biowheels for about 6month. Because it takes 6mo to a year for all that baserock to become live and be able to mantain the biological filtration in...

Originally posted by tinydove Tap Water is a "NO_NO_NO NO _NO!!!!!! I started my tank over 3 monts ago and I used tap water that sat for 2 days (55g) I went through the normal stages but could never get rid of the brown algea Brown algae usually hangs around for a few months anyways and even...

I have been in the hobby for 5 years and after trying many fads and approaches here is what I would advise. Use only one magnum 350 and don't use the biowheels. Fill it up with only half the charcoal reccomended to keep it from packing. You will have rock and sand for your bio filtration so...

Originally posted by natelevi I had an offer today from a guy from a professional aquarist place here in Indiana without me setting a price and he offered me 3000 dollars JACKBUTT YEAH thats wat i thought SHUT UP So why sell it on this board if you could $3,000.00?????? Ask the proffesional...

Originally posted by Birdy . As well as temperature. If it is a small water change (10% or so) then getting the make up water up to room temperature and adding it to the tank slowly ( over a couple minutes ) then you will be fine. If you have a fish only tank then tap water should be okay...
