I really like the "Y" idea, does it cut down on the bubbles that go into the water? Im thinking bout taking a hammer to some of the LR I have and dropping it between the 1st and second baffle (about 1.5") so the water has to run through it. Any thoughts on that idea? Where do you have the return...

The first pic looks like a red Mithrax crab

boy if I had a dollar everytime someone dared me to do that I guess it'll come down to if I want to put eggcrate over my tank and have to see the shdow from it when my moonlights are on or not.

Hmm......not boding well for the Firefish. Any way to tell the diffrence in sexes?

Im convinced my green serpent could survive a nuclear bomb.

Argh.......I do so hate the one's that love to surf. I thought I read that they prefer pairs (so I guess that would mean 2 not 3). Are they sociable or skittish? Since doing away with my center piece Tang I think Il just go with smaller fish with alot of color Im holding off on a Mandarin for a...

Did you ever get that apology Meowzer?

Use pvc cement to connect them (if they're both pvc) just let it try completely before using it.

Im thinking about adding 2-3 fire fish down the road, Im looking for "pro's" and "con's" about both red and purple.

An update: When the Monti broke, there were two large pieces and one tiny one. Both large pieces have died. The tiny one (about a half an inch long) however has yet to lose its color. Is only a couple of inches under the surface but I turned off the vho's since they are power hogs. I dont know...

God Bless the generator. Came home to a power outage last night. Wind took a tree down on some wires down the road. I highly recommend the kit from Home Depot. Fire up the generator and plug it in.

really, that short? I would think you would want the line running to the bottom so the water runs through the live rock before going over the first baffle

Awwwww.......now I miss my Bimac even more

SO if your not running with a filter sock, how far down into the sump does your drain line run?

Hmm.....Now I may have seriously consider that Pygmy Angel. It wouldn't be for a month or so, so the Xenia would have time to recover. I thought the Tang had plenty to eat. It wasnt like he was munching the Xenia, he would nip it, spit it out and go back and grab some more. Maybe he hated the...

I had a Clarkii some time ago (gave her to a friend who was getting into saltwater) she had a great personality. So your angel doesnt nip any coral eh? Guess it really is just a individual fish thing. I was thining bout a pygmy angel down the road a bit but was worried about nipping.

Happy enough. I know that the clowns and shrimp will be a better fit in the 75. I'll miss his showmanship but hopefully the clowns will pick up the slack. I guess its better this way in the long run since I know the Tang would be cramped eventually.

Well I traded him in for a pair of Ocellaris Clowns and a beautiful Blood Shrimp.

Iv been using a filter sock in my sump for as long as I can remember, but I just read on Melevsreefs.com that he doesnt use any type of mechanical filter. I can't figure out how he removes the larger particles of waste. Any clues?
