    HELP!!!!

    OK everyone. Big question!! I am building my own refugium for my 125g reef. Right now I have only a wet/dry filter down below. I'm thinking of ridding my tank of that, and putting in a large refugium instead. The question is, if I did this, how much will my tank be affected if I jumped...

    CPR CS102 Overflow

    What size powerhead is needed. I finally have it hooked up and it does work great, but I do notice that air does get trapped. Sticking the air tube back in the water does not work and will not work. It has nothing to do with the air bubbles being sucked in the overflow. Thus I think I need a...

    sunburst 12k??

    So would you need to supplement with 10K or not...? Just if you wanted a little more blue, right? Otherwise, 10K bulbs would do fine by themselves?

    New Berlin Turbo Skimmer

    Most likely your assumption is correct. Just make sure that your skimmer is producing the thousands of tiny bubbles. No bubbles...not good. Also, make sure the water level in the skimmer is met.

    Pumps!!!

    Question. I'm upgrading my pump that is in the sump of my wet-dry to return water to my 125g tank from a rate of 500gph to 1200gph. I was working on it last night and I didn't have enough time to figure something out. When I turn on the new pump, the water that is flowing into the overflow...

    Atlantic Blue Tangs

    Lord, It ate the fins of two fish??? No offense...I'm glad they made a full recovery, but in a way that's sort of funny. Maybe they stole from him or were picking on him and he lost his temper. He's like Cujo...only a fish. Thanks for the input people.

    Kalwasser mix?

    Bob, Yep. I just started using Kalk myself. I'd been using the Kent Liquid Calcium. But what I do now is add a small amount of Kalk to a five gallon bucket that I have under my tank which has a drip device that I spliced into a level sensor. So anytime that level sensor gets to low the pump...

    Cucumber?

    I agree with the Captain. Burrowing Sand Sifter Stars are great. You only see them once in awhile. They spend most of their time under the sand eating crap.

    lighting for clams

    Recently purchased a Pohnpei Ultra Maxima. Is doing great and I have him in the sand. What do you think? Should Maximas be in the sand or on rock?

    lighting for clams

    Question regarding clams: Should they be set in the sand bed, or can you keep them up high sitting on LR. I've never seen a clam sitting on LR, only sand. Just curious

    Lighting for Fish-only with LR

    I never really thought about this. I have a 55g tank just sitting around and my roommate wants to buy it and start his own tank. He doesn't want any corals, basically a fish only, but he does want LR in his tank. What kind of lighting is required for a tank that will have no corals but will...
