    so my boyfriend bought a fish tank.....

    Since the tank is a 10 gallon, it is considered a nano. I would read the Nano forum. There are a lot more Nano specific threads there.

    Tank looks like hell

    What do you consider good water movement? What is you total flow? You should also add a lot more live rock. Where in Philly are you located?-

    Weight question

    It all really depends on the construction of your home. Your calculation is off slightly. you should figure about 10 pounds per gallon with rock and everything. That would put the weight of your tank at 720 pounds, then there is also the weight of your stand. You could be looking at close to 800...

    Greetings question about refugium

    Yes it can get too thick which could cause more problems. If the algae on top is blocking the light, the algae on bottom will die and cause nitrates which you dont want. You have to cull your macroalgae just like mowing your lawn. About one a month I take out half of my macro and sell it to my LFS.

    Home made refugium.

    I cut strips of plexiglass 1/2" wide and siliconed them flat against the walls of the tank wherever I wanted to put the baffles. I then siliconed the baffles against them. This gave extra support for the baffles.

    Greetings question about refugium

    Most LFS will give you credit for it. Go to your LFS and ask if they are interested in it. It's a great way to help pay for this hobby. You could even sell it to people on here or on ----, either way, you have to remove some every once in a while to remove nitrates. If you leave the macro algae...

    How would you figure WPG?

    I know that, but since my tanks are interconnected because of the sump/refugium, would you calculate as if they were separate? or would you total the water from both tanks and divide by the total number of watts from all the light fixtures? my sump/refugium has 15 gallons of water with 45 total...

    How would you figure WPG?

    I have a 45 gallon display tank with another 15 gallons in my sump/refugium. My main tank has 2-95 watt VHOs on it. My sump refugium has a 30 watt and a 15 watt flourescent on it. How would you figure out my watts per gallon?

    Coral Identification

    I'm starting this thread hoping that a lot of us will learn from it. I have about 7 or 8 different corals but I am not sure of their name. It seems that most of the corals at my LFS are incorrectly named. What I am asking, is that if you have a decent picture of one of your corals, to post it...

    ***Any advice on setting up refugium??

    Stop putting sand overtop of your crushed coral. The sand will only make its way to the bottom and the crushed coral will be back on top in time. Never mix the two because the crushed coral will always end up on top. Take the CC out and use it in your fuge if you want but just use sand alone in...
