ok. I just plugged in my high pressure sodium light too.. To help supplement the light that the flourescents arent giving. This is, until I get myself a good lighting system.

Just finished gettin everything i own so far in there... I know.. I need more lr. but I feel like a crackhead buyin all this rock..... I plan to take a drive today and find another store.. But I wanted to post some pics of it so far. Alot of the ornaments glow in the dark, that will not disturb...

it doesnt look like lava rock to me. It is just very pourous. The rock in the middle (biggest one) is a bunch of coral pieces stuck together..

I had my system setup and cycling for about 5 days when the tank began to decay. I rushed everything I had (3 pieces of lr, and the decor into a 26gallons tote and kept the filter running that water. This went on for about 3 days until I could get the new tank filled with water and warmed up...

if you want to keep everything alive, just get a power inverter for the move, so a filter can run while it is moving. just a suggestion that might help. A power inverter will turn 12vDC into regular household current and will run a filter. Get a good enough one if the heater(s) will be needed to...

OK, so maybe I could get away with using like 75lbs of the pourous rock in my 75 gallon tank. Think that will pretty much equal the useage of using 2lbs per gallon with not-so-pourous rock?

maybe try to re-arrange them and create some tunnels thruought the rock for the fish to swim thru, but be careful cuz if it isnt sturdy enough, it might cave in!

amoo-carb is simple.. carbon and ammo chips (ammo removes ammonia levels). Comes mixed together or you can buy separate and mix yourself.

well, if u want to see a pic of some red rock, here it is:

also, I am currently using 2 - 4 foot flourescent plant & aquarium bulbs. Is lighting important for live rock?

I am in the cycling process with a 75 gallon tank, running a magnum 350 convertible canister filter, a seaclone 100, 2 maxi-jet 1200 power heads. I loaded the filter with ammo carb to start with. How often should I change this and should I buy the ammo and carb separate and mix more of one then...

you can look for broken pieces of coral on the beach while u are there.. ship me a few pounds for the suggestion I do not believe it is illegal to take sand from a beach, but you will most likely bring home alot more then just sand. sift thru it and find all sorts of life!

anyone know where to get a decently priced fractometer?? wait is it refractometer or just fractometer? i forget and its too late to think

I noticed alot of the live rock at my lfs is pretty pourous. Does this make it better then the more solid rock? Or can I get away with using less weight of the pourous type? The more pourous it is, the less it weighs and bigger it is... and the more places for things to hide

i love the pics. nice! what size tank is that and how much rock does that add up to? just wondering..
