The LR is a mixture of Premium Tonga and Marshall Island and some base rock. All the rock has been "cooking" in a large Rubbermaid tub and a trash can for over 8 months now. It is obviously fully cured but since it has been sitting in the dark, with a heater and powerheads, it does not have...

I see some lookers but no requests for photos. I would be happy to send you some photos of this beautiful new tank. I need to find it a new home very soon. Thanks Rebecca

My plans have changed and regretably I will not be able to move forward with my 270g FOWLR tank at this time. So, I have had to make the painstaking decision to sell the tank, even before it is completed. This is a custom built tank designed by a very reputable and highly regarded tank...

tcm88, Thank you for your detailed explaination. So, would you consider the lawnmower blenny to be hardy? The algae sheets are my best option for grazer feeding, since right now I don't have a lot of algae...at least until the tank gets mature. I really like the look of the midas blenny too...

I heard that Lawnmower blennies require a more mature tank to do well. They need to be able to graze for algae like the tangs. Is that true? Any other comments on the fish list? Thanks Rebecca

Thanks all for your comments... Fedukeford, I figured I might not have much luck with getting ornamental shrimp with the hawkfish and the triggers so that is why I am interested in the yellow and blue stripped neon gobies. BTW, interestingly I currently have the Falco hawkfish in my 120g with...

I am in the final stages of setting up my 225g reef tank. The tank will be primarily SPS but I would also like to have a good number of fish in the system as well, including triggers and tangs. Here is the list I put together... Bicolor Anthias Pseudanthias Bicolor (1 male & 5 females)...

Hi, I am working on setting up a 270g (72 x 36 x 24H) FOWLR tank and I am trying to figure out the water movement setup for this tank. I understand that the water movement on a fish-only tank is not as critical as a reef tank but I want enough flow to move around any detrius and fish waste up...

Okay, I have been working on the setup for my 450 gallon system for weeks now. It is a total of four tanks, two display and two support tanks. I have almost all the plumbing done and now moving to the electrical side of the project. So....WHAT DO YOU DO WITH ALL THOSE ELECTRICAL PLUGS. Oh my...

You would not have purchased them because they are too big for your tank or too boring?? :thinking:

Bang Guy, Is there an online site you might suggest for purchasing captive breed Bangaii's? i am setting up a 225 main tank and a smaller seahorse tank. I was thinking of putting in five (one male and four females) Bangaii's in the main tank. I had always heard that odd numbers are best when...

Guys, Thanks for your feedback on the skimmer but is a done deal. I ordered the ER skimmer earlier this week. I am hearing really good thinks about them and they are recommended by Anthony Calfo as well. Soooo :thinking: Acrylic, not sure what you mean by the drum for the OM. Do you mean...

Acrylic, Thanks for your feedback. I have heard good things about the ASM and GEO skimmer but I have heard great things about the Euro-reef skimmers. My husband gave me his "blessing" to get the ---500 Euro-reef skimmer and I think I am going to go for it. You're right, it is expensive but I...

I am in the process of setting up a 225 gallon tank (60x36x24H) and a 40 g (30x12 1/2x24H) seahorse tank. It will also have a 90G. sump, a 40 g. refugium and a 55G frag tank. The lighting will be two 250W 10K XM Halides and one 400W 10K XM Halide using Diamond Lumenarc III reflectors. Along with...

Please DO NOT put those larger fish in your 75 gallon, it would be a terrible loss of such beautiful fish and a waste of your money because they will surely die.

If RoyalShrimp does not want the UV Sterilizer, can you tell me what size the sterilizer is. I may be interested in the Aqua UV. Thanks Rebecca
