Also the tank never had a hood and it evaporates really fast. I am going to buy one i think... negative fish...bad idea. you want surface airation...evaporation is something that is impossible to get away with. get a ATO or grav fed top off. What's the tank's temp? what's the avg temp in the...

My question, is a maxijet 1200 to much pressure to run in the fuge or should I go with something smaller? if you have a good flow(a mag 5.5+) as a return, depending on how your baffles are designed, a PH where the chaeto is, is a bad idea...the impeller/sponge will be filled with pieces and...

if you moved, you may have "New" water(from a new source)...i just moved 3 months ago, and i couldent get my ates below 15...turns out my RO water is 20...so check to see if your water has nitrates in it. also 15 isnt bad, you moved the sand bed and rockwork around, so you have probably sturred...

u know you want it all sold together, but if you decide to part up...i need a phos reactor & pump...60+shipp

coors light and Black Russians.

crf230 great guy. i got rock and some corals....rock was amazing. Thanks man.

bump....HELP!!

linka's require LOTS of rockwork...and by lots i mean >150lbs...sure it will live, but it's not eating well...they grow fast too...I woulden't. there's a big difference between red stars, brittle stars...and linka's.

I had a LTA for over 4 years...grown HUGE! looks great...but i'm buying a bunch of stuff tonight, and one of them is a CurlyQ...in a 75...i dont run carbon, should i be concerned with them playing chemical warfare in the tank?

well if you had a 5 gal nano, you wouldent use a 55gal refuge/sump... but generally it will help reguardless of the tank size...many people run VERy sucessfull tanks without a fuge/sump...others dont.

yea, but if your buying it for a hurricane or bad storm (Even in RI)...the gas stations probably close down...so your gonna have to have a good amount of gas around to power it for a weekend...maybe just run the tank...and the fridge just to keep the food good...and AC/Heat at a min...must worry...

how big of a tank does it have? maybe look into a auto topoff for your gas...LOL

wow this is odd...i just got a call from the oak guy...the hood is done...still needs to be painted on the inside white, and i need to find filtered fans for the sides... thanks shrimpi!

omg! what's your email?

Well since I moved my tank, I cant get my nitrates below 15…I used 3 types of tests, powder and drops -> color chart, and drops till purple(not sure of the manufactures of these) what got me thinking was that i did a 25% water change, the nitrates went from 5><10 to just under 20, 6 hours after...

in our area there alot...but noone (well anyone with brains) would go to a LFS and buy a 550$ light when you could go OL and get it for 1/4~1/3 of the price...unless you were in a pinch. pluss at 6 months those bulbs will have to be replaced in 3 months...so there's another 150$

haha...in your 55 or 35?

yep, just a hitch hiker...if they become a problem for you pull them out...but blooming sponges is a (normally) a good sign.
