    Cycle question

    Thanks Uber. I forgot to add that I did put some bio balls from my 12G nano into the filter to help speed it up. Maybe it worked. I hadn't planned on adding too much of a clean up crew if any at all as I'm planning on having a puffer as one of the first occupants of my tank.

    Cycle question

    I've had my 80G tank cycling for approx 10 days now. I've got approx 80lbs of live rock and a 2 inch live sand bed in it. 3 days ago my amonia, nitrates and nitrite which had been high started to drop and for the last 2 days they are all showing 0s. Has the tank really cycled this fast? Or is it...

    puffer question

    Iam currently setting up a 150G tank and would like to eventually put a puffer into it. I've read in books and on this site that they tend to eat inverts. What kind(if any) of clean up crew can I have in the tank with the puffer? It will probably either be the only fish in the tank or maybe one...

    150 saltwater tank ???

    Can you return the aquaclears? A wet /dry is way better filtration. I'm also currently setting up a 150G Fowler tank. If what I've read on here and other places is correct, the general rule is 1-1.5Lbs per gallon of live rock. I'm going with approx 150Lbs of live rock. As far as the live sand...

    Heater question?

    Thanks everyone for the advice. My LFS recommended titanium heaters too, but I wanted to check here before buying. My LFS also recommended buying 2 heaters rated for 100G each and then putting one at each end of the tank.
