Also have a 50 gallon and use 2 Maxi Jets 1200s at opposite ends of the tank pointed at each other. On the output opening of each powerhead I've attached the Hydor Flo rotating nozzle. Makes for great circulation! I also have a third 1200 MJ attached to my Remora skimmer and think it's a great...

First of all thank you all for your comments. Was following the recommendations found in BoB Fenner's great book and on his Web site about dealing with new additions after you receive them by mail or purchase them from a LFS. He actually promotes both Dips AND QT for new fish purchases if I'm...

I’ve been able to use Bob Fenner’s method of freshwater dips with the addition of Methylene Blue very successfully in my first marine fish only tank of 110 gallons. The only problem I’ve had is monitoring the progress or lack thereof of the fish I place in the dip. The solution is typically a...

Best canister filters are still the Eheim filters but they are very expensive. You can get a knockoff of the Eheim filters on that auction site made usually by Jebo in China. I've had two of them and they worked very well and cost a fraction of the cost of the ones made in Germany. For ease of...

Get yourself a Remora Pro with an upgraded pump from everyones' favorite auction site. You won't be disappointed. I've got a Remora Pro and an Urchin Pro and they are the greatest. John

How much for your chiller and the 1200 Maxi-jets? I'm in New Jersey 08816 , John sragone@comcast.net

Is it advisable to use any freshwater dips for crabs or snails? I'm planning on adding a cleaning crew of mostly hermit crabs and snails and was wondering if this was advisable or safe with invertibrates. I've been using dips with Methylene Blue with my fish additions as suggested in the book...

Have one of each in my 110 gallon and they've gotten along fine. The LMB is a finicky eater and only eats algae on rockwork and glass. Love them both although the LMB likes to roam all over the tank and has become my personal favorite.

Do you have any hermit crabs left? If so how many do you have and what would you like for them. Thanks, John

Feels like Saturday night madness....offer $301 plus I'll pick this up at your place. John sragone@comcast.net

225 dollars and I use Paypal also. John

Offering 200 dollars for your chiller. I am seriously interested and could pick this up without you needing to ship if you still live in NYC. Please contact me ASAP. Thanks John sragone@comcast.net

AM interested in your 46 gallon tank can you send me a picture. I'm located about 20 minutes from you in central NJ. Also what type of skimmer do you have for sale. Thank you John sragone@comcast.net

My choice would be to go with the skimmer. Many folks regard the UV as an option of questionable utility although I run one myself. Skimmer has always been considered as an essential part of most saltwater systems for many of the reasons given above. John

Could you let me know what cost would be for chiller and could I just pick this up in NJ? john sragone@comcast.net

Yikks! Forgot about the link restriction . If you like email me and I send you the links to the site which sells fake reef rocks, sragone@comcast.net John

Yes I did read that inverts need salinity to be higher than most FO setups so I guess that I'll need to slowly adjust upwards before ordering my cleanup crew. Thanks, John

Yep , just found that little piece and the hookup now will be a snap. Thanks for your suggestion. John

I'm using fake coral rocks which I obtained from *********. I bought several rocks in all the available sizes and created a beauty of a coral reef with many caves and hiding spots for the sealife in my 110G tank.They look very authentic and are an affordable option if your not ready to make the...
