Great tip, Thanks!!!!

So far so good with the corals. I just put frogspawn and acan lord in there so i'll keep you posted. Unfortunately i don't know anyone else with a nano cube personally. Where I live, Newfoundland, is not exactly a hotbed for reefkeeping!

Temp hasn't been a problem. I got the 3.24 version, I believe it's called. I've been thinking about getting the additional 70W MH retro system I saw on nanotuners and putting that in there as well (somehow).

The absolute best book on corals is "Aquarium Corals" by Eric H. Borneman, bar none.

Puprple lobsters can also be pretty destructive. I had one that would eat any fish that crossed his path or wandered into his cave.

Man, I found that those coralife powerstrips suck anyway. I only had one and he lasted approximately a month before the timer part of it was busted, rendering the whole point of the strip useless! Anybody else have any experiences with them to relate?

I've been wodering about the same thing.... Can somebody please shoot me an email with that link as well? Thanks. My email is melindy@mun.ca by the way and thanks again.

Could you email them to me as well? I was very impressed with this project and was planning a similar one myself, I'd like to take a page from a master.... :) My email is melindy@mun.ca and thanks!

The purpose of the sump is to hold Calcium reactor, skimmer, denitrator and ozone reactor. Oh, and heaters too. Is a 30 gallon big enough for all that?

I'm about to setup a new 125 gallon aquarium. It has two overflow boxes predrilled and two drilled bulkheads. Below you'll see a diagram of the flow layout. Basically it's a little busy but what it is trying to show is that there is a main system pump that takes its water supply from one of...

I must say that from the first pic, though it is blurry and indistinct, it looks like Acropora.

looks more like a sponge to me.

My capnella was also sold to me as Nephthea. Nephthea species usually have more obvious sclerites, though.

Or perhaps I should say "eye"! :rolleyes:

My pleasure, I love trying my hand at id's!!
