Last spring my sump overflowed while I was in the cayman islands. Fortunatly, I called someone who came over and I had to explain to them how to atleast get the lights and a powerhead on over AIM. It was a pain. Nothing died fortunatly.

Wow... awesome tank. I like that acro (?) in the first pic. The zoo's are amazing too. Did you find those zoo's locally?

For the most part I liked it. Im still trying to get used to a tv show like that on espn though....

First off, no steralizer. Their not good for reefs. For biological filtration I would use a DSB and maybe put a undergravel filter without the tubes and pump obviously or a piece of egg crate under the sand. Also a good amount of LR. Stay away from bioballs and things of that nature, Im...

Shrooms, polyps colt and the open brain shuold all do fine. Im not so sure about leathers. Id say most LPS would do fine under that light as long as you maintain good calcium levels.

thanks!

Will scraping off the sponges hurt the good bacteria on the LR.

Ok so I have been curing some LR for exactly two weeks as of today. I have several questions. First of I have 90lbs fiji LR in two seperate rubbermaids each with a powerhead and a heater. I have done about 3 100% water changes. The rock claimed to be pre cured, and the site said it would...

I know that some of the larger hermit crabs arent reef safe. I guess this could be the case with yours as well. Id watch it carefully and if it nips at a polyp get it out.

thanks for the response. I figured the 150's would be good. Im pretty sure thats what Ill go for. Any reccomendations on what color of halides? 10k,13k???20k?

yep. 15-4 at 189 lbs.

uh oh... just read jjgl's thread. hope i dont get ripped for asking a similar question... In addition to my previous question, what spectrum would be the best. I was thinking 10k for the halides and actinic 03 for the vho. ??

I am looking into a light upgrade so I can keep some SPS and maybe a clam. Just wondering if this would be enough on a 55 gallon. Its 2 x 150w MH and 2 110W VHO. It ends up around 9 wpg. There is also the option to get 250w metal halides on the fixture, but Im afraid it will require a...

Yesturday I picked up a candy cane and a red open brain. Im just wondering what will help them do well. ie, water flow, tank placement and feeding? I have 260w pc and the tank is 55 gallons.

Also, does kalk actually raise calcium or just maintain it?

My calcium is a little low... around 360. Im aiming for about 420.

Hey, I highly reccomend it. One of my drysuit buddies theories is "no muss no fuss." Noticed your from chicago. You ever dive Lake MI around there. What about haigh quarry or pearl lake?

Thanks for the help. One last question. Right now my dkh is at 11. Is that too high?

I know this may be a long shot, but anyone here have any experience with drysuit diving? I just go a drysuit with the dui rockboot system and cant find a fin to fit over the boot. Anyone had any experience with the rock boots?
