Some of the rock. Probably not the sand. But what results have people gotten when doing this? Any spikes or algea breakouts?

I want to downsize from a 125g reef to a 55g frag tank at the end of the summer and was wondering if I can just use water from my 125 to fill the 55. like 30g from the 125 and 20 being new saltwater.

different corals need different light intensities. SPS on the highest level, zoas and softies on the middle level and LPS on the bottom

nice pics. what kind of camera you using?

looks a little like the ORA chips acro

I am planning on setting up a 55g frag tank at the end of the summer and trying to think of the best way to layout the shelves. I dont think I want the eggcrage to be snug against the glass because then the snails wont be able to clean much. but if I can somehow make the shelves moveable then I...

i am researching the same thing. have a 55g i want to make a frag tank but it isnt drilled and I want a fuge. an HOB overflow is the way to go. then just hook up some PVC to the return pump all the way back up to the tank for the return.

Originally Posted by windlasher put a ball valve on the return line and adjust until the level is where you want it. it wont hurt the pump at all. good idea. thanks

ok what about this...the mag18 with a 1200gph overflow and a megaflow model 4 sump. thats what im running on the 125 and i dont see how it could be a problem on the 55. i'll just need fewer powerheads. right?

thank you! now i dont have to drill my tank haha

so its just PVC connected to a return pump? and what model is the HOB overflow box?

Originally Posted by Coral Keeper Yup. Nope, its not drilled. Was too scared to drill it as the tank is a one of a kind. Its actually working VERY well, doesn't flood or anything if the power goes out or if the over flow clogs. This is all good news to me cuz I don't want to drill the 55g I...
