    Holy Crap! I don't know what to say, a lot of the plumbing is over my head so I'm just going to say great Aquascaping.

    Looking to add coral.. can I ??????

    No, 96w won't cut it for a 125. I have the same size tank and 72' VHO's, but mine put out 160w each. As far as the lighting for corals go it's a no. You might be able to update by just buying new VHO's but you'll have to check if your fixture can accept higher wattages You'd want a minimum of 3...

    For Rock Watchers Anonymous

    I like that starfish. I had one of those in my tank. It disappeared though, So I can't give you any info. I really like the aquascaping too. All those base rocks make really nice overhangs, and will also be good places to rest corals. (I'm guessing you want a reef tank). Your tank looks kinda...

    Feather Duster doin something weird!

    That's how feather dusters breed, they shoot sperm and eggs into the water when the detect another feather duster, you may be lucky enough to have a whole tank full of them....if they're not eaten by fish.

    How do I get rid of these HELP!

    Aspesia (sp) You can google that... Are they a brownish color? If so then the best way is to prune, rarley does that work so I just had to keep pruning and curing the LR if they're isn't any coral on it. Otherwise you might be able to find a Aspesia eating nudibranch.
