excellent:) Thanks for the infor I think I will go with the 2 10k's. Just a quick question: should you always try to keep the ratio between 10k and actinic light 50/50?

My test kit is only 3 months old. I am using the kit shown below to test all the normal stuff like Nitrate, Nitrite, Alkalinity, and PH. Is this the wrong thing to use? If so what should I go with. For Calcium I am using the Hagen Calcium test kit (it was bought at the same time). Oh and all the...

If I go with 2 actinic's and one 10k will that make it look all neon ish. I want the end result to look really natural

sorry the alkalinity is 190

I dose one teaspoon of Seachem Reef Calcium each day one teaspoon of Reef Complete, A little Kent Marine ProBuffer dKH and feed Kent Marine ChromaPlex, and Kent Marine ZooPlex. I am cutting back on the calcium.

I am going to run 3 95w VHO light on my 55 Gallon (tank size 48"L X 13"W X 21"H). I am going to use the all URI with the inturnal reflectors. I was just wondering what combo to use. I was thinking of going with 2 of the 10,000K bulbs and one Actinic bulb. Does this sound like it will work...

I do a 10% water change each week without fail and do not have a fudge. My tank is not the greatest but I love it.:D

Thanks for reminding me. I should have posted this in the first post. Calcium Level = 800 :D

I run the URI bulbs. I run 4 - 36" bulbs with the internal reflectors, and no external reflector (well not exactly true I have aluminum foil taped to the top and sides of the canopy). I am running the 30w each bulbs and it is just enough to keep my corals alive. I will be switching to the 95w...

I just noticed that some of my purple coraline alge was turning white :notsure: , and I wanted to know if anyone knew what this means :confused: Amonia = 0.0 Nitrate = 0.0 Nitrite = 0.0 PH 8.1 Salinity = 1.025 Temp 79.5 Degrees OH it is a 55 gallon 48" X 21" X 13"

I have only had the tang in that tank for about 3 months now. I have a 135 gallon that I want to put up but I am being a real baby about makeing sure I have every angle covered. I keep finding out about cool stuff like putting a spray bar under your reef to keep the junk from building up which...

Oh I fogot about the Flame Angle and Coral Banded Shrimp he must have got too. . This sucker has cost me some $$$$ now that I think about it :mad: . Looks like it bye bye for him (back to LFS).

I am by no means an expert at this hobby as I have just started it 6 months ago. I picked up a long tentacle plate coral and have had not a problem with it. It was in fact prob. 3 inches when I first bought it and it will now open up to about 8 inches across. I guess I have gotten lucky. That’s...

I have a green brittle star in my tank and I have never seen him do anything really aggressive during the day, but that does not mean he is good when the lights go out. The only reason I ask is because I have put 3 nudibranch in this tank and they disappear after a day or two :mad:. I have also...

My Purple Nudabranch

Where can you buy those Roughneck containers at?

I am still kind of unsure of weather or not this could spread to my other corals. Does anyone know if I should worry:nervous:

I will give that a try before I go to bed tonight and see how it looks in the morning. Thanks

Here is the 9PM Pic

I need some serious :help: . My Hammer coral is fading away. It’s like something is eating it slowly. When I first got it there was 8 heads on it. Then in noticed that one of the heads was not opening. After watching it for a few days and seeing it not open at all I just thought it was a dead...
