I recently returned to saltwater - the new school says no undergravel filters at all. Use the search button at the top of the page - you'll find a ton of info for new tank setup topics...

Anyone have any idea? This have been flourishing on my live rock for the last couple of weeks... It's growing on a couple of different pieces. Will it be a good food source for omnivores? Thanks.

I don't know about having the bulkheads up side down but the gasket goes on the wet side normally...

I'm in the planning stages for a 72 BF. I'm considering removing the carpet in that area (in the basement) before setting up. What floor would be most able to handle the ~1000 lbs? Will ceramic tile crack? Any suggestions? Thanks.
