thanks everybody. I was gone in sicily for 6 weeks and my wife took great care of it. I only lost my featherduster. I plan on upgrading to a 125 or 135 as soon as I have time to build a stand and canopy or find one used in great shape. I can't stand this Prism but I don't dare touch the...

You can throw in a small bag of carbon to combat the smell and it won't slow down your cycle. Putting in cured live rock will basically give you an instantly cycled tank. Granted you may have a very small ammonia spike from some minor die off. But that will drop quickly because the rock will...

Everytime waves crash on the shore and that foam mess works its way on to the beach you have seen a natural protein skimmer in action:D

I have used both the Mckormicks pure garli juics and used the pure garlic in a jar that looks almost like a thick paste. I mix up food for 2 weeks time and refreeze the mixture. I use a measuring spoon that is marked " just a pinch " and put in two of those worth of garlic into the mixture and...

A large sump with lots of bioballs will house more bacteria than a 400. A small sump with bioballs will not. The tank is only a 55, and a the biowheels will house more than enough bacteria. If greg had a 250 full of messy fish then a large wet/dry full of bioballs would probably be a better...

A wetdry won't do anything more than your 400. A refuge should lower nitrates but so will a DSB and the DSB will cost less. Your nitrates are not that high and if you just recently replaced your C/C then give your SB time to see if it is deep enough to lower nitrates. Do you add any trace...

The whole thing is that bioballs do not convert nitrate, but live rock and a DSB will, so as long as you use a prefilter before the bioballs then they should not be a problem. Now if you do a refuge then you will probably take out the bioballs to make room for the algae that will reduce...

Rook. That was one of the best threads I have read and thank you for saving my wrist J/K:D

I have always had good luck with maxijets. I would advise the 900's vise the 1200's. The 900's use almost 2/3 less power and only produce 30 or 60 gallons less per hour. They also run cooler to. SO you could run more powerheads for less energy and heat and get more waterflow per hour. 2-...
