I'm not going to get into any arguments into which is better but I will ask you one question: Have you ever seen or heard of any beaches that are full of crushed coral? :notsure:

Just thought I'd let you know that I'm interested and I'll come meet you.

It's best to put the fuge at the beginning because the protein skimmer will take out all the nutrients that your macro/fuge needs.

Here's how I built mine https://www.saltwaterfish.com/vb/showthread.php?t=194518

I started with a 20 gallon tank. I measured the ******** dimensions of the tank and cut the plexiglass accordingly. I also cut strips of plexiglass 1/2" wide and as long as the height of the baffles. I used silicone to adhere these strips to the inside of the tank. They are to help support the...

Make the last baffle higher than your water level and with holes in it and put a large filter sponge against the hole. Bubbles will not flow through the sponge. They will get trapped and work their way to the top and not pass the baffle.

The brown object is actually a filter sock hanging from the sock holder. There is no live rock in the picture although I do have liverock in it now. This is an old picture. Not really sure how much I'd ask for it, maybe 45.

I'm not sure of the recomended size but here is a pic of it

I'll be selling or trading a 20 gallon sump in a couple weeks.

It doesnt go into a hole anymore, it did when it was smaller.

Get a few 5 gallon buckets. Put a trash bag in each bucket, the small kitchen bags should fit. Then place rock into bag in bucket and fill with water. Tie the bag shut so water doesnt splash around. Do the same with the fish except in a different bucket. I would start off new using sand. Keep...

Speg: This was the mushromm I was talking about https://www.saltwaterfish.com/vb/showthread.php?t=194461

I saw one of these at my LFS and have been informed that it is a tube amemone. I was also told that it would be good in my refugium, unfortunately it's in my display tank. Anyone know of a way to get it to release from the rock?

I have been told that these are Riccordia mushrooms. But from reading this forum and seeing drawings and pics, I think they are Toadstool leathers. Every mushroom I have seen kind of lays flat over some rock, these have a long stem. Could someone please identify these?

They slimed up because you had them out of the water too long. That is also the reason that I suggested to dab the shroom on paper towel before placing on gel.

You need 5 watts per gallon for your heater. You need 500 watts. Dont forget to account for the water in your sump or your heater will be overworked. I would suggest buying 2-250 watt heaters. If one burns out, you still have the other to keep things warm. I would also suggest buying titanium...

Make sure you dry the rock good with a paper towel. Then place a drop of gel on the rock where you want the mushroom. Take the mushroom and dab the bottom of it on the paper towel to dry and then place it on the drop of gel. Hold it there lightly for about 10 seconds. You can check to see if the...

First of all, are you sure they are bristleworms? Are they red and yellow with little bristles sticking out the side? They move really slow unless threatened? If so, then they are bristlewoprms. Or are they a clear or milky white with brown on the back and move quickly? If this is the case, then...

Yo MB, I just picked up a few more shrooms the other day. I'll be fragging some out for you.

Blaze: How did your Xenia frags work out? Did you get them all back or lose any? I am about to do my first Xenia frag this weekend. Check out this site great info about fragging Xenia. They have a short 60 second video showing how to do it. Scroll down the left side to where it says "How...
