I am posting to this room in case someone is considering an upgrade to their exisiting system. I have a brand new Mag Drive 1200 purchased from Marine Depot. I received it a few days ago and have only turned it on in the tank and then removed it. It is way to powerfull for my 54 Gallon corner...

Thanks for the reply. I will go ahead and change the fitting in the tank to accomondate at least a 1" inner diameter tube. Thanks, Wayne

I just purchased a Mag/drive Supreme (model 1200) for my saltwater marine tank. The Mag Drive pump has 3/4" threaded intakes and outake ports. The manual states the *minimum* inner diameter size tubing for *maximum* flowrate is 1.5". I want to know if tubing that has an inner diameter less then...

Darn. That would be a good idea but I just added 4.5 lbs of live rock gravel to the sump and placed the excess bio-balls underwater in the overflow. I rinsed the phosphate sponge thoroughly before putting back in the system. I would also like to see if this is collecting and possibly leaching...

Hi. So far my amonia and nitrites are zero. I intend to gradually remove the bio balls and replace with live rock. I will completely submerge the live rock in the wet/dry filter by rasing the water level of the tank. I will take the excess bioballs and submerge them in the overflow for now...

I have a 54 gallon 3-4 month marine tank with 55 lbs of Fiji live rock. I have 1 maroon clown, 1 Yellow tang, 4 eel gobies, 1 black star damsel and 1 maroon clown fish. All the fish are very small-2-3 inches. I have a wet/dry trickle filter with bio balls. I am using a AquaC Urchin protein...

WOW!!! Sounds like one awsome setup. Cogratulations on your purchase and goodluck when you get it going. I hope you post some pics as you setup or when the live rock is in the tank. I really look foward to seeing some pics when you are finished. Take Care, Wayne

Hi Dave. Another nice pic. I looked at your profile and saw your web site. I enjoyed the video and all the pics. I really like the the images of your 70 gallon setup. It looks like that took a lot of work. Take care, Wayne

Thanks Wax. Your brain coral is armaster of disguise. Looks different everytime. That is one great looking coral. Thanks for the pic with the tenticles exposed. The images you submitted would make an excellent reference for the Open Brain Coral. Take care, Wayne

Wow that is an amazing pic of the Brain Coral feeding. Mine has 3-4 very small ports that open up...most of the meaty tissue reamains closed. It does swell up to where it hangs over the skeletal disk. It never fully opens like a plate with a mouth in the center. I am unsure but this may be the...

Thanks for the pics and suggestions. I will shut off the power heads and filter and try spot feeding tonight after lights out. Hopefully it will take in the food. Sincerely, Wayne

I most definetly have good current and was especially carefull where I placed this specimen. There is flow but his flesh does not even ripple from it. I am unsure about spot feeding. What I have read is it is done at night/dark when this thing feeds. But I never see tenticles...if that is...

There is a condylatic anemone in the tank. I have since found that it needs much higher (intense) lighting requirements. I am purchasing a 250 MH pendent. The condylatic tenticles are bleaching. They are still well inflated and the footing is a consistant pink. Hopefully when I get the pendent...

This Coral has been in my tank for about 3 weeks. It has a hard round disk underside. It is green and has started to recede on this one edge. I understand that these should be placed on the substrate but have heard of others sucessfully placing these in the rockwork. My water parameters are 0...

Hi. I did not use epoxy. I have 45 lbs of live rock. It may be hard to tell but their is 1 large piece in the center. A couple main pieces on the sides. I built up from there. I have a total of about 7-9 rocks. I cut out a pattern of my tanks bottom first. I then played around with the rock...

Sorry to hear. That is so sad. That is why I do not want to pair fish. It would make me feel worse then the fish...who probably misses someone to irritate. How the fish really feels about it is anybodies geuss. I think that type of clown is not aggressive and another one can be added to the...

<SNIP> "Just remember nothing, is easy or worth anything if it is." :mad: Hey!!! That's not a very nice thing to say about my wife. BTW...she is worth a whole lot to the various Credit Card companies. Take care, Wayne

:scared: Thanks. This is sad. It is actually sick and is "translucent"...and I thought he was healthy. I am purchasing a 250 watt MH pendant. I will rig it some how with my current power compacts and hang both above the tank. ( It may be to late to save him) I have a corner tank with most of...
