UPDATE - I bought a new pump today Rio 2500 should give me about 350 GPH, the pump is pumping SW about 6 feet vertically, just about right for a screen 10 inches long. I am starting to see some color on the screen now so hopefully with the extra flow I will start to see some results, I still...

Ok I got some pictures tonight not the best they are taken with my cell phone. I did notice tonight when I fed the mandarin that he came up to the surface of the tank to feed off the floaters and some of the cyclops (with fresh gralic, ground up in blender) fell on a fake rock ledge and I could...

Looking good my friend.

I did that on one of my FW set ups

Even if you could find a rubbermaid container or something you could cut shorter to fit in the bottom of the stand.

Hey Snake I think it looks really good - just one suggestion the bottom part of the stand can you make some type of a contanment if you do have any larger spills - what I mean is put like a 3 inch weir - at least if something spills it will be contained. If you saw my stand for the 120 I have...

He is eating cyclops and every couple of days I put a hand full of cheato from the DT fuge, is that true about mandarins because I would really like to put him in the DT - I have read yes and no about QT - he looks healthy he swims around all day, I just think he will do better in a tank that...

My JRT one time was chewing on something I thought it was a piece of plastic................... no it was a cleaner wrasse. Hope your clown is OK ;)

Update - thought I would share - Mars Bar the rooster was born Aug 20 2011 - here is what he looks like today just over 3 months old. First picture is baby shot, thanks for looking - he is really friendly as well, not your typical rooster.

Well I was tired of killing fish when I QT so I set up a 35 gallon tank I had around, this was actually the first fish tank I had. I set it up with a sump which is a 20 gallon with one set of baffles, have to get a new pump tomorrow, go to run about 200 GPH and yes Snake I am going to put an AS...

Hi and welcome to SWF.COM - I think as long as your sump will go through the sides of the stand you should be alright, personally I would have put a 2x6 on edge under the 2x4 on its flat side, this way your will have good access to your sump and you might have to put your sump in from the front.

That would make a nice frag tank!!

SOunds good, you can get the 40 watt single bulbs as well.

Nice job, I have a 65 as well - I really like the foot print. Just curious is that a heater you have next to your overflow, why don't you put it in your sump. Great job.

Nice clean job, how amny watts of light do you have on that screen, I agree with snake get two more lights and grow the algae all the way down.

Did you say that you changed everything in your AquaClear 70?
