So what is the formula for number of bulbs to tank size - I guess depth has a lot to do with it as well, meowzer I appologize if I am hijacking your thread. How many moonlights or are the blue one's just dimmed/

Really nice set up - the coral you are asking about are yellow polyps, they spread very quickly, be careful what you put next to them.

Yes Tangs Rule Great job, this ich thing has got me so paranoid since I got rid of it in my tank, I really don't want to go out and buy anymore fish. What are your thoughts on dips for corals, specifically iodine dip, a method I have been using. A buddy of mine down in Baltimore told me of...

I hear you, my skimmer pump went - I need to send it back where I bought it. I think I should have a back up for the skimmer, luckily I have an ATS.

Joe - sorry to here this - I lost one last year - I guess these guys are meant to stay where they come from. Live and learn I always say We almost need to culture algae rocks for these guys if we want to keep them, I wonder if we could culture algae rocks or in a fuge or a separate tank with...

Huge difference, man Joe you have some beautiful colors in that tank of yours. Two hippo tangs I see, are they buddies. I bet if you can get a little more flow on that leather it will open up quickly again.

Fantastic - make sure you are nice to Mr Meowzer for doing this, LOL
