I'm open to all designe tips and changes that anyone may have.

Ok so I just received two, 55gal tanks and plan on using one for a display and the other for a sump/refugium. The question I have is if I make a large refugium is the skimmer really needed? I plan on making a 55gal into 3 sections the first half will have extra live rock and a power head to keep...

And why is it more noticeable at night then during the day

And since my spare tank is small could I remove my shrimp in to a different tank and then treat ich or will the treatment kill everything else

Ok this should be fun

And I have some fish effected with ich and some with out do I remove all fish or just those effected

Ok and for a hospital tank will a simple hang on the back filter work or do I need other equipment as well

Ok and can you treat ich in the display tank or do I need a hospital tank

So I have what seems to be an ich outbreak it's not bad but it's not good. It also seems more noticeable at night. I had a few questions first is ich worse at night and do you know why. And I got a cleaner shrimp because they are said to help with it and if so how effect are they

Sweet can't beat 20 bucks for a torch coral and thank you

I also have a quick ID on these corals. I'm sure the first is a frogspawn but unsure on the other

Ok I just want to make sure that the corals are getting their light needs met.

So I just got a AI Prime LED and I had some questions. First off is there a certain distance it should be from the surface of the water, and it has Calvin settings so what temp Calvin should I run. Or basically any settings I should set it at. It on a Aquapod 28gal. I have 2frogspawn, a plate...

That was my plan for the overflow issue as well. I do love my pod and it's great for starting and I can't complain as it was free. But I have dreams of a 100+ system on day. Thanks for the advice it's always helpful

Ok thanks for the advice. I have decided HOB skimmers would be the way to go. And I do want corals that's what I think makes the tank. And I've seen some cool kits for the biocube that I think would fit. My LFS also has one with leds that I could model off of. And the hard part is keeping the...

I did forget to post when I found out it was the aquapod. And I made my own skimmer but it didn't work because i designed it to be in tank but the water levels didn't alow it so I'm back to the drawing board. And looking to do a hang on the back type. I'm also looking in to a light upgrade as...

Thought I'd give an update. My tank is finally over the anemone incident. Thank goodness. But I lost my Coral shrimp, and a blenny in the process. And I am so happy I added the the pistol shrimp he and the watchman are dest buds and fun as hell to watch. They have made quite the fort together...

Ok so I just got the protein skimmer for my tank. I was wondering if it should go before or after the foam filter I have. This is what the back looks like. Or if any one thinks of a better place in the back

So I think the one on live aquaria is the wrong one the one I'm looking at looks like this. I found some info seems ok just have to keep them feed as it says they are aggressive eaters. Don't think I'm ready for one but they are vary interesting.

Thought I'd give an update. I got rid of the maroon clown and my tank is much more at ease. Unfortunately it was not in time and she killed the damsel, the scooter went MIA and I fear it to is gone. But all in all the other inhabitants are doing great and I plan on adding a protein skimmer in...
