Rubble rock is 4.99 lb and reg. rock 7.99 lb. The reg. rock does have alot of hitch hikers like mushrooms, sponges, button polyps and even one had a brain. You also need to find the least inclined person there because they have a tendency to try to charge more if there is any type of coral. I...

mine eats meats and veggies (flakes)

Reefist@prodigy.net is on the north shore and is a cabinet maker, he builds out of his garage. He will be at our next reef mtg, you should come

Petwarehouse is decent in price and selection. There is Fishy Inc. in bayshore, Country Critters is good to look at to get an idea but buy elsewhere. Their live rock is expensive but seems to be the only place on LI that sells a good amount of it plus you can choose your pieces and try to find...

Yes they do molt, mine does a few times a month and is huge

thanks but I bought one from Capt Pete

you may be able to buy used and save a ton. With regards to heat from lights, yes there will be some, how much I don't know, depends on setup and room conditions. I have a 45 with (2) 96w pc and (1) 175w mh set 9 inches off water in open back hood, I get about 4-6 degree swing, enclosure temp...

You should have no problem, there is probably going to be a need for a tee of the incoming water to be split with the washer and your unit and the drain will be fine. I have the compact but hooked it up under the sink.

whats the dimension of the wetdry and its setup?

there is a reef mtg next weekend, you may have good luck there, reefcentr** is the place for the info.

The back of the cabinet is it drywall, if so then plastic mollys will work or get butterfly mollies. What this does is allow the screws to actually catch on something stronger (plastic) and spread to add pressure to its surrounding. The butterflies have a bolt that ges thru them and at the end...

If you look at the pipes under the sink, do you see the cold water shutoff? Then there is the tubing going up to the cold water handle. So lets start from scratch, HD sells hard plastic?pvc tubing setup, length does not matter since you can bend it and cut it. Shut of the cold water supply...

w. babylon, go to re**centr** and go to clubs and look for LI. We have about 30 members in a matter of 4 months. We meet every month at Fishy Inc and this month 2/16 we are meeting at the Riverhead Aquarium for a behind the scenes look and a presentation. Shoot me a email if more info is needed.

I have a 45 tall with center brace. its 36 long. I moved the mh from the center and put it on the left side. So my light loving corals are on the left and center, while the shrooms and others that need less are on the right. It looks totally awesome as sun penetrates the left as a direct...

I feel sometimes water issues get blown out of proportion. RODI is just that. When something states 99% removal, it is just that 99%. Their are no misleading labels, since membranes have to be certified. Microns matter as do the types of carbon blocks. The end result is still 99%.

correct, whe you feed the tank, blow some past the coral, it senses the food and starts coming out. Do this for about a week but don't feedd it directly when you do that. After lights out feed it as you do. This will train them to come out when everyone else is being fed and then you feed...

do a search for sun polyps, there is a thread with at least 50 responses. Tells all about, light, feeding, types fed and training.

Um, what is the next coral of the week?

Get plastic pipe just large enough for the screw to go through and use that as the spacer between the reflector and the canopy, cut to desired length, this allows you to raise or lower the overall height of the reflector.

You still should use reflectors for 2 reasons: 1) a reflector acts a heat sink, the mh directs heat at 1 point, the entire length of the bulb and residual heat on both sides, the reflector spreads the heat over a increased area. 2) the reflector reflects light on the top and sides of the mh and...
