Why does a skimmer need more flow in the sump? I think they sell Caulerpa at the fish store that is what I will probably use.

It seems like everyone says something different. I have a HOB skimmer so just strictly a fuge. My local fish store says I want the flow slow for a fuge. He said to go with a rio 1700 and one 600 GHP overflow box and that will be fine. I am going to use a Eshopps reef sump that is rated for 125...

Would I be alright with one higher rated GPH overflow box? I really dont want to run two off my tank. What is the difference between one or two overflow boxes? Faster flow to the sump?

Anyone? I just need to know what GPH pump I should run with what overflow box?

I just really need to know what size pump and overflow I need. I have a fuge picked out I am just not sure how much flow I need from the pump. So please give suggestions. Thanks!

I have a 125 gallon tank. i want to add a fuge to help get rid of hair algae. What do I all need for a 125 gallon? What size pump and overflow box do I need. I have a hang on skimmer on my tank should I put one in the fuge instead?

What size light should you put over the fuge?

What tangs would do good with a emporer? Would yellows fight with it?

The emporer is doing great. he is eating everything now! What would be some good fish to add to the tank with the emporer? I have just a clown with him now.

I have tried different frozen angel food and my emporer is swimming up to it but not eating it. He pigs out on the seaweed selects I feed him. How can I get him to eat something else? I want to keep him healthy - will seaweed selects keep him healthy?

Here are some pictures. My camera sucks.

I have a emporer and a clown fish. I am just restocking. The tank has been up for years. I am just wonder how often I should feed.

How often should you feed your fish? I get a lot of different opinions. I have a 125 Gallon FOWLR.

Thanks for the input.
