Can you post a pic? Leathers are generally very hearty and can take alot of abuse. How long has it been in your tank?

Looks great!!!!! Exactly what light scheam are you using?? t-5?

I have the same fish in my 75g. Very nice!

I got mine at Aquacave. Its the Reef Octopus BH 300F, $199 right now w/ free ship. HTH

I use the octopus BH300F on my 75g and paid like $175 a few months ago for it. For a hang on, its a real beast! I believe it is rated for a 135g but it my work for you if your bioload is not real heavy. I highly recommend this skimmer if you are not looking for a sump model.

I use the octo BH300f on my 75 and it is awesome! I really like the whole line Octopus offers.

+1 Flower! I follow the same regimen in my tank and it seems to work for me as well.

Are there any loose wires in the hood you can see? Maybe one wire to the two bulbs in question has a short, also check the end cap connections. I'd start in those areas first.

Very nice mixed reef!!! All your fish and corals look very healthy!!

I agree with going with reefgeek. Great customer service and price!

Well, its time to change t5 bulbs again and was wondering what the current best four bulb combo is. I use 3- Blueplus and 1-aquasun . I like the look but i'm thinkng there is a better choice. I'm thinking of trying: blueplus ULV 75/25 aquablue blueplus or blueplus ULV actinic white aquablue...

Very cool!! I have only seen one other like that in person. I didn't know they changed color, thought there as a type that was naturally colored that way.....maybe not. Either way, very nice fish indeed!

Sounds good to me!

What kind of corals do you keep?? I think six bulbs are great for sps and some lps. The bulb selection you listed is mostly of higher par bulbs. You may want to go with a four bulb configuration as to not melt softies or at least go to two actinic bulbs in your six bulb configuration, that will...

I've ran one on my 38g reef and it was ok. But a better suggestion for about the same cost is the Octopus BH-100 or BH 1000. It looks alot like the Bakpak, but is rated for up to 90g and is supposed to kick butt! I'm ordering a BH-1000 next week.

Sure, it will work fine. I work at a cabinet shop and i used a 30" vanity for a tank stand for my 29g. If you want to use one i suggest cutting off the toe kick section to give the cabinet more serfice area to sit on and lower it a bit. You could also put a wood top on it or just fashon some...

Thanks for the responses! The chips don't go all the way through, they go about 1/2 way. It was suggested to me to dremel the sharp edges and fill the chips with epoxy(flush). Than go over the corner with two 3" wide pieces of 1/4" thick glass running from top to bottom secured with silicone...

I have a delama!!!!! I was repairing the cracked rim on my 75g tank with super glue in the driveway with two bar clamps to draw the cracked rim tight. Unfortunately, my nine year old daughter was playing basketball about thirty feet away and the ball got away on her and hit the top bar clamp, it...

Should work fine for those. Good luck!
