A pendent eh? That would help if you had heating issues, but they give a beam of light. So you would probably want two one for each side of your tank.

Yes I have heard of this and I know of someone who is currently doing it to his SPS tank. I don't know if it'll work but we will see in a few months.

They really arn't that much more expensive. You can buy a mh retrofit kit that is cheaper than the ones that are already housed and you can just put it in your canopy. I switched from PC to MH.

an added plus is that they will reproduce in your tank. They generally only come out at night.

It looks good but its kinda cloudy.

Originally posted by psoup I suggest maybe a cleaner chrip and an algae eating crab. :yes: :yes: That only covers up the problem. You should find out whats causing it. Using tap, feeding too much, not enough flow....

Zoanthids and many many more.

Green star polyps and mushrooms

Xenia

You can keep many soft corals. Colt coral

Wow that sucks. What did your water readings say?

you might need the heater at night. If you could put it on a timer or something that would be good. I run metal halides and my temp would drop significantly with them turned off.

I use the brand Salifert. Just some general tests Ammonia Nitrite Nitrate Ph If you plan to keep corals: Calcium Alkalinity There are many others but these are just the basics.

Lowes does too if you don't have a home depot.

what do you run your tank temp at?

it looks healthy for the time being. Just wait, it will start to get easily stressed, which often brings on infections and sometimes death. I have seen it happen so many times.

yeah I have some nassarius and they do fine. I'm not sure about the conch but i'm pretty sure most of them usually starve to death if the tank isn't big enough.

I wouldn't keep lower light corals, but its possible. I would want to fill that baby up with SPS. Don't forget SPS need good water quality.

Well Mexican Turbo snails need cooler water than what our tanks normally are. So that might be a reason for the deaths.

just checking
