hey guys got a quick question. i am building a retro fit canopy. was wondering what the lengths are on t5ho's. the shortest anyone seen i am doing a 50gal corner tank. leaves me about at the longest point about 40 inches. thats at the longest. looking to do as many lights as possible but...

your 90 bow is deeper then the 178. that alone should answer that question. i have read that anything over 30" you need halides. but have been told t5ho is good up to 36" max. plus i prefer t5 becuase: 1. cheaper to replace bulbs 2. runs a hell of a lot cooler 3. many broad spectrums 4. can...

i am in the bronx. i asume its a little too far for us to do buisness

bump

thanks gmann you are the man

also gmann can you also give me the formulia for volume. i want it to about 50 gal or some where around there.

disregard last post. i reread and i understand. so both sides of the 22 5/8 front piece will be beveled at 67.5* And then the two pieces at 8" will be beveled at 67.5* one one side. i got it thanks to all who helped out. now that will be the same angle for the stand as well correct?

whouldnt both 8" pieces have to be beveled to fit the front piece of acrylic? 32 was just amade up number and i ment to put in 23. so both (b, and a) dont need to be beveled

im not worried ablout the right angles. the other two angles are the ones im worried about. i have to bevel the edge at the right degree so that it is flush when sealing and gluing.

they are also called speedy connects. use them on my skimmer

that is debateable. i use both wet/dry and fuge. macro algae is very important. if i had to chose between the two i would go with a fuge and macro algae. IMO of course.

no not really.. it will mater if you decide down the line to put coral in. also kelvin is the color as well. lower it is the redder/orange look. middle is white higher is blue. hope that helped

anyone god in math?? here is where i am developing my tank and stand. here is where i need your help. any and all help will be greatly appreciated

I would like a corner tanks with 30" on each wall side I am going to asume its between50 and 75 gals. acrylic preferable or glass with an overflow in it.

that's my setup. 1hr before he later.

IMO foam releases any stress points on the tank. From what I have read here. Nothing more nothing less. But I could be wrong as well

I had him for like 1 year. Its a 75 gal tank. I increased flow by adding 2 koralia #1. He passed away like 2 hrs ago all of my other fish are doing great. He was a trooper. He will be missed. I think my power heads are placed too low in tank. Not enought top water agitation. Could that be...

1 powder brown 1 yellow tang Both this morning are breathing very heavy. It could be that my girlfriend just fed them but I did increase the flow in tank yesterday. Anything to worry about. Just checked all levels and everything is perfect.

Have your TDS checked in your water. TDS stats for total disolved solids. The lower the better. I live in new York. Bronx area and I test my RDS be4 each water change. But to I advised. I also have buffer if it is alittle high. For my future reef tank I will be using nothing but ro water.

my opinion I would build a fuge using acrylic or plexiglass. Then you can use natral and mechanical filtration. Also it will give you the room for a protein skimmer. Then you use your baffels. The only other fitefs I know of are either hob's or canisters. Imo I wouldn't use either nitrate traps...
