The sump sounds pretty sweet post some pics!

Wow, the eshopps overflow is what I will probably go with, but adding a float sounds like a good idea also so the pump would shut off if nobody was home.

I see, I have heard alot about eshopps U tube overflow, its about the best out there.

hey guys went to my LFS and heard some horror stories of people coming home and water all over the floor from the overflows failing. How exactly does it happen? The only way it can fail, is from the tube disconnecting from the overflow, right? So a with a good clamp, it should never fail...

Whats a good brand canister filter?

found out a little more info I believe it to be a 29 gal marineland system without the hood.

I am looking at a 28 gal tall aquarium, pretty good price, what should I use for filtering. Should I do a sump, or just get a good HOB filter? This will be my first SW setup. Thanks.

I was at my LFS yesterday and noticed two different types of salt. Regular instant ocean, and the instant ocean reef crystals. Is there really a difference?

how do you acclimate them? water changes with more salt every time?

yo guys, was at the wally world today and they have spotted puffers there. It was in freshwater, but the label said 1 tablespoon of salt per 5 gals of water. So I guess it isn't freshwater then. I was looking for something to start a small pico, but not SW fish because I am just starting out. I...

After days and days of researching, I got a handle on just about everything except for this crucial part, lighting. I probably going to go with a 54 corner. I want in the future a reef tank so I dont want to upgrade my lights down the road. I found these Current USA Nova Extreme Pro T5 lights...

Ya, thats my problem, it might be up to a month before I get a tank! Could you store it in some tubs with a heater and a powerhead for that long?

Is there any way to store live rock? Can it be stored dry? There's a local guy that has some leftover to sell me pretty cheap. Since I don't have a tank yet, what method would it be my best bet? Thanks so much!

Sorry I forgot to add that it was a 12G. The description on the light is 50/50 actinic compact fluorescent lamp.

Been bored all day, so I have been looking for deals, I ran across a Marineland Instant Ocean Aquarium Kit that comes with everything, I mean everything starter instant ocean salt, heater, etc. I've read alot on here about the lighting in those tanks are not very good. I would like to have a...

In your guys opinion which is the best nano setup?

It's a 65 gal tank, been cycled for a couple months 40 lbs of LR and oydseea MH lights. U guys heard of that brand?

Hey guys I am thinking of buying a whole setup off the bay, it says its got a ecosystem pro sump, with a asm g1 skimmer, are those products any good? Also he wants you to take everything, live rock and live sand even the water. Would'nt you just dump the water and start with some fresh once you...

It was definitely SW, that's what I figured too, maybe he waters his grass with it.

Watched this video on youtube, the guy said he keeps all his dirty water from water changes and uses it to water his plants. Won't that kill your plants? Any of you guys do that?
