    live sand

    I would go no less then 3 if you are looking for the benefits of a functioning DSB. More is better but it also takes up space in your tank. My point is look for southdown. You should find it up there in NY and if not you can maybe get down to PA or NJ and get some. It will save you cash that...

    live sand

    here is a calculation to figure out how much sand you need: Tank Length X Tank width X Desired depth of sand Bed X .0579 = LBS of sand necessary For my 55 gal tub that is 36 by 18 i would need 150lbs of sand to get 4 inches and 112lbs for 3 inches. For the standard 55 gal tank 48x13 at 3...

    live sand

    are you looking to go with the standard DSB? If so then 80 lbs might not be enough to get to the 4 inches or so that it would require. I just put 40 lbs of sand in my 26 bowfront and that barely gave me 3 inches or so. I could fit 2 and a half to 3 of those tanks into a standard 55 gal tank...

    hows this for equipment

    a 35 gph RO/DI is more than enough. Set it up somewhere that you can store a 18 to 30 gal rubbermaid tub and you always have water on hand when you need it. Just add a float valve to the tub and always have the water turned on. I never run out of water. You can even put the tub on a stand...

    Problems with Perc

    I just wanted to update you on the black spots on my perc. I found a thread on -- where others were having a similar problem. It looks like the reason is corals the clowns are hosting in. Mine went from a large Sinularia to a candy cane coral to recently some Orange Zoos. The spots only...

    Electronic Ballast or Magnetic?
