I have a 120 gallon reef im setting up... its in my basement into the wall. Its drilled, 1" drain with 3/4 return. I was thinking a mag drive 12, what pump should I get? Also, is it best to have it in the sump or out? Thanks, Josh

What size would I need? Would it be best inside or out of the sump? Thank you again

I had the tank drilled with custom overflows installed. Im new to drilled tanks so I dont know much about it. One hole is about one and a half inches, the other is one inch.

I'll be setting up my 120 in about a month or so and I need a return pump. The tank is in the wall, downstairs. It's drilled and I will have one sea swirl. My sump is a 40 gallon. The pump will need to pump about 6ft high. I dont know how much flow I need. I will buy to koralia powerheads...

I have a 120 that I bought (used). I just had it drilled with custom overflows installed. The tank is in really good shape and clean. However, I want the glass looking as close to new as I can. Is there something I can do to clean it up? I know vinegar will help, but is there a way to use...

I just got one of these and was told by a few people they are reef safe with caution, with shrimp. I have had a flame hawkfish before and he never bothered anything. Will this fish be ok with my neon gobies and cleaner shrimp?

its a 120...I will prob only get 2. I just cant decide what ones I want

Im setting up my new tank soon and looking into fish. I was wondering which of these 3 tangs would be best together. Blue hippo, Cheveron tang, White Cheeck Tang, Desjardini Sailfin? Thanks, Josh

That would really stink! It seems like everything is impossible to keep. lol Josh

I think longhorn boxfish are really cool, can you keep them in a reef? Josh

I'm setting up my 120 gallon tank in about a month and looking into fish that I would like to keep. I really want a school of fish, and thought anthias would be a good choice. Could I get the pink square anthias (male's) and bicolor anthias, and how many could I keep? I LOVE the pink...

I have a 29 gallon reef and upgrading to a 120 in a few months. I have the tank now (just need to get it drilled and overflows put in). I need a pump and dont know what kind or size to get. Are external pumps better or does it really matter? I just dont know what kind and size I need. I...

Ok..sounds good...and when I get a tang or something like that it wont be for a year or so, until I feel my tank is ready. How about a red sailfin tang or orange shoulder tang? I love those both! Thanks, josh

Im setting up my 120 in the next few months and getting some ideas on fish stock. I really like the copperband butterfly and have read that its reef safe, eating aptsia (spelling?) I read it on GARF and hear from many people that they are. What do you think? I just want to be sure, and I...

That's kinda what I thought...now, the other question. I have read and been told not to get hermit crabs. I like them, I think there fun to watch, more then snails anyhow...I was told they will eat your snails. Should I avoid hermit crabs? Just getting snails or just hermit crabs? Sorry...

I have a 30 gallon reef...I have some algae growing, cant tell if its hair or bryopsis...I only have like 2 snails and need more. Would you get Certh, Nerite, or margarita snails? I was told Certh and nerite are good...also that margarita eat really well too. I cant make up my mind. Also, im...

good point...thanks for your help! I have already started to get the tank ready to set up. I thought while the tank is cycling...i could put the tang in the 30 for a hospital tank until im ready for the switch. Thanks guys Josh

I would like to get a blue hippo tang. I have a 120, which is not set up yet. I will be setting it up in a few months (this winter). Currently I have a 30 gallon reef. I found a very small blue hippo tang for sale (14.00) and its small, about 1.5 inchs. Wouldnt this be ok in my 30 for a few...

Hey everyone, My wife and I are going out of town the 29th for a medical procedure, for about 9 days. My bro-in-law has a tank, and said he would stop by and check it everynight. However, I would feel better if I had some type of water top off system, a simple one. I only have a 30 gallon...
