    Mardel

    Has anyone ever used the Mardel in tank Ammonia monitor? I have one for a couple weeks now and it is showing zero ammonia, but just for kicks I used my Aquarium Parmaceuticals saltwater master kit and it was showing between 00 and .025 on the scale........Everything in the tank is thriving and...

    I think my firefish likes my LTA. He doesn't get too close to it, but he always is near.

    clowns in tanks

    So I have a 75g tank with not too much in it at all. 2 Tomatoe Clowns and LTA, a pencil urchin and lots of hermits. My question is.....in a tank that size, would putting 2 O Clowns in there be a big mistake with the Tomatoes?

    garlic

    ok, this is just a question i've often wondered about but never had to "worry" about......I've been lucky with my fish eating over the years so I've never needed this, but when you guys refer to soaking food in garlic.........is there a special fish food garlic or are you talking about garlic...

    kinda stumped but not worried

    So, three weeks ago, I moved everything over from my 29 gallon to my 75......used all the sand, all the LR, all the water, and some water from another established tank. I made a major lighting upgrade, from an aqualight pro with two 55w, 50/50's and a 150 watt MH 15k.........to, that plus two...

    closed loop question

    ok, well I guess I can try that and maybe throw some silicone aquarium sealer around it that way if I ever need it to come off I can get it off.

    closed loop question

    https://forums.saltwaterfish.com/t/188627/about-closed-loop-system I built it off of the picture here except on the second 90 of the intake I put a T so I could cap it off to prime it......unnecessary??

    closed loop question

    hm, really? The pump would have enough suction to start on its own.......I don't have a pic of mine, but I built it off of one I saw on here......give me a minute.

    closed loop question

    ok so I went ahead and built a closed loop system to eliminate powerheads. I got it up and running by priming it. I put a T in the intake to prime it so I would be able to cap it off when its running. I can't glue the cap on in case I have to re prime it for some reason. The problem I am...

    wow

    Thanks!! corals may come in the future..right now I am about 2 weeks away from my wife having our first baby, so I most likely won't be adding anything to the tank until things calm down a bit........I may try some corals now that I have the lighting.....we'll see, time will tell.

    wow

    ok, I have been in the hobby for several years now, and have always done FOWLR. Actually thats still where I am at, but over the years I never saw any reason to go out and spend mega bucks on all this "fancy" lighing. Previous to this I had a 29 gallon FOWLR with an aqua light pro two 55w...
