    Question about lighting on a 90 G corner

    Scar, I know this is a very old thread but I have a 92 gallon corner tank and I am looking to upgrade my lighting, so I was wondering what was your final decision for your tank and how did it come out? Thanks,

    Lighting Upgrade

    When I said the glass canopy reducing the positive effects of the MH lights, I was asking if the glass would reduce the brightness of the lights. Most of the time I have observed MH lights they are on a tank with no canopy. Is this something to think about or if the glass is kept clean there is...

    Lighting Upgrade

    I currently have a 92 gallon corner tank that only has 2x96 watt 36" power compact and would like to upgrade the lighting. I was thinking about adding a 24" power compact (possibly retro kit). It has to be 24" if I added more 36" PC's I would not be able to open the canopy. Then I was thinking...

    Brittle Star?

    Seems like most think they are OK for the reef although some don't agree with that. Any other opinions? Do they have a tendency to knock over rock as the burrow in the sand?

    Quarantine Tank

    Yes my display tank is a reef tank. It has been up since February and I do use the same test materials for both tanks. I use both kits on both tanks. I have not tested for Nitrates recently, I will do a bit later tonight. Also, how much sand to transfer do you think will be enough?
