not if I didn't stick the hose all the way down into the corner, but only about 3/4" below the surface. Then it would break siphon and there just wouldn't be any flow.

Ok, here's the plan: Get one of those 2.5 gallon tanks at you-know-where and have a piece of acrylic cut to go in the corner, like in the pics below. Then run a piece of clear flexible tubing into the corner space and up over the edge of the tank, siphoning down to a rubbermaid fuge. Then...

what about getting a piece of acrylic cut and siliconing it to the corner, something like the pic below. Then you could just run some tubing down into the corner space and up over the top of the tank and siphon down to your fuge. You could use clear tubing for your return, too, and clip it to...

DeMartini's pico is the smallest one I've ever seen pics of. Like she said, she wound up taking it down. Pico reefs are high maintenance. I'm considering starting up a 3 gallon, but that's the smallest I'd suggest for upkeep reasons. If you are still considering building a pico, plan on...

It's always better to remove a really aggressive fish. The ich can be treated, but the gramma's aggressive behavior cannot. You did the right thing by removing the gramma. You should try again and see if you can find a less aggressive specimen, after you get the ich taken care of. I've been...

If you really want any corals to do well, I'd go with the 25 watt you talked about. Any small bottom dwelling gobies will be ok. What kind of filter are you planning on using?

That's pretty much what I thought.

I looked up candy canes, and mine looks exactly like most of the pics. The guy called it a candy cane, so were about 250 other people there. They're pretty much the same thing anyway, right?

Well, I think I know the name of the orange ones. They came from a guy who's good friends with a guy who was also at the frag show who sells zoa's that look exactly like this on his website. He calls 'em "Tequila Sunrise". I believe they are the same. If you PM me, I'll give you his web...

here's the zoa's

I've had this tank up for almost 2 years now, but I've never gotten the chance to take any pics. I borrowed a camera, and it's apparent that I need some practice! I just got back from my first frag show today. I picked up the Krypto candy cane, the orange zoa's, and the purple zoa's, as well...

I'm considering getting that exact same light fixture for my 30gal long. Are you happy with it? Have you had any issues with heat? I found an AWESOME deal on it, but I'm worried about putting a halide on my tank w/o a chiller.

never had a nano on a stand before, so I don't know the answer to that one. But I do know that many people have these aquariums and if there was a big problem with them falling over on the stands, it would be well publicized. They're pretty well-made, so I don't think it's a common problem...

nobody knows the answers? anyone used a kill-a-watt on these?

I'm thinking about putting an 8 gal biocube at my cubicle but I need to have all my ducks in a row before I go to my boss and ask permission. How many power cords does it have, and how many watts does the total system use? Anyone know anything about the amps? There are very strict limits on...

any time you can snatch all that up for 200 bucks, do it. that's $100 worth of cured live rock at my lfs.

I wish I could've seen the pics. I don't have much in my tank, but I'll take pics during the party. My zoos look BAMF under actinics, can't wait to see them under blacklights.

I think poly filters will remove copper. Anyone correct me if I'm wrong. I'd just run one of those in whatever filter device you use for a week or so.

Ok, call me stupid, but I don't see what's great about this. Sure it looks cool, but don't you have to look through the water on the sides? I would think it would distort the image, sort of like looking at the bottom of a swimming pool but to a lesser degree.
