just like the title says. i feed a mix of rods food pellet and flake food's. the tank is well established plenty of algae to graze on. i have only had the fish for prob 2 months but when i got him he hadn't started changing when i got him.

i don't know if this helps but i have a 6 gallon bucket under my tank with an automatic top off. but i just add 3 spoonfulls of kalk everytime i refill my top off bucket. once a month i take the bucket out and rinse it out. but i have it set up to where my hose is kept 3 inches from the bottom...

i got them!!!!! i got them today but i didn't get home from work in time to see them on. i did get them all set up and i have my lunar cycle on, so maybe i'll get to see them tommorow and maybe get some pic's. but judging by the moon lights i don't think 2 is going to cover well but we'll see...

i found a tunze doc 9410 skimmer, rated for up to 264 gal and the footprint is basicly 10''x5''. so i think this is the one. it's twice as much as the coral life super skimmer but as far as i know tunze makes quality stuff. i know for a fact thier powerheads are bad a$$.

i am lookin for a good skimmer thats not so big i have around a 10''x8'' spot in my sump. i was looking last night and all i could really find that looked like it was worth a crap was the coral life super skimmer rated for 220 gal and the footprint was 6x8''. the other option i was thinking...

if your thinking of buying a fish research it. it will tell you everything there is to know about that certain fish like minimum size tank, what to feed, how aggressive they are and so on then you can put together a stock list that suits your tank and experience level. some fish take more work...

mine is not an actual cube with a hood i have a 150 mh pendant above mine its basicly a 20''x20''x20'' rimless aquarium with stand and pendant all in one i would say to just get a pendant or a clip on light or something it just seems like to me if you upgrade your lights to much you would then...

i am not so sure that the skimmer backing up into my tank is the whole culprit. im sure it played a big role in it but ,i think that i had so mush cyano dieing off at one time that it released way to much nitrates and phosphates into my tank at once that my skimmer and ATS couldn't come close to...

i see i thoght u were talking about the reef capable led's

i havent checked any readings yet because i can tell somethings wrong even the coraline on the back of my tank is brown so i must have taken a lot of skimmer gunk in my tank. after this water change i will do a few tests if they are not good i am going to lfs to get some more r.o because i can...

yes on the filter sock. i just got home from work and it looks like my orange sherbert,ice fire,plum crazy,and green beret acro's are pretty much gone almost all white skeleton is showing everything else is browning out real bad. i am doing another 20 gal water change right now because thats all...

what are the dimensions of the tank? because my 30 gal cube is 20'' tall and you def need better lighting for the corals you have.i think they will live but they wont grow and the color's will be pretty bad. and the reason meow is saying to get rid of the blue tang is because they get pretty...

well i came home on my lunch break yesterday and it had been 24v hours since initial treatment so i turned my skimmer back on, and went back to work. came back 4 hours later and my skimmer was so full it backed up into my tank. everything looked real bad no polyps were out on any thing and a...

the led's? everything i have heard about them is that they can barely grow softie's Quote: Originally Posted by florida joe Check out Marineland Pro Lighting 48 Inch I run the 60 inch and love it

i am like meow, i like the blue color better. so if you go with a 14k bulb, and you like the blue color as well, i would go with the 4 bulb t-5. but if you don't mind a more yellow color than the 2 t-5's will be fine because the halides will be enough light to keep any coral you want. my buddy...

and your tank shows it! what size tank?

started treatment today and i used turkey baster to blow off all the cyano that i could get. usually by now it would have already grown back some, but it's lookin real good. i already have my 20% mixed up and ready for saturday. i think i am going to stay with it the next 3 months until the...
