the stand is not yet built, so we can build it to whatever specs we need. although it is for a buisness we are trying to keep the costs "low". i have heard that rubermaid containers will work? the tank is not yet drilled. but we could do that ourselves also, as long as we have the proper...

we decided that we would like a saltwater fishtank at work. i have a 55 gallon at home, and used to have a nano reef tank. what i am looking for is suggestions as to lighting and inhabitants, we would like something that will look nice, that will not get dirty too quickly. i have a 75 gallon...

thanx for the suggestions. should i ditch the blue leggs? do scarlets kill snails? thanx

i have brown crud all over my tank. i know that it was because i was no useing RO water. about how long after you start useing RO water does it take for the brown stuff to go away? i have it on my sand, and on my rocks. is there anything that i can do to help this along? could it be that i...

thanx. i think i will add the surface skimmer. one more question. i know i have been stirring up the bottom a great deal today, but my water seems to be kinda dirty. not brown, just cloudy kinda? anything i can do to make the water look crystal clear?

i went out and bought an ac500 for a fuge for my 10 gallon nano. i took off the black connector that connects the motor to the intake. this slowed the gph considerably. i put a divider 1/4 of the way across the chamber. on the small side, i have a heater, and some of the foam for mechanical...

Originally posted by BlackHavoc I want to get one of those prisim skimmers dont do it :) i had one, they need constant attention and always need to be tinkered with.

i have read a few articles on turning an aquaclear 500 into a fuge for a 10 gallon. that seems small though? i think i may give it a try though. what do you guys think?

i was thinking of adding a 5.5gal fuge to my 10 gallon nano. could anyone explain the process to me? i have never made a fuge, and really dont know of any online sources to help me through it.

do the little snails effect button polyps and yellow polyps? i have little snails, but my button polyps and yellow polyps are not doing well. they are there, they are just not opening. my mushroom corals are fine, and spreading well. any ideas?

could you give us some infor on what equipment you are running?

Originally posted by mjsdas i got the surface skimmer at a local LFS, but i've seen them at several places online, i think it was like $10 or something like that. It is probably the best $10 i've spent in the whole tank. It immediately removed the layer of sludge that was on the top and it...

do you add any additives or suppliments or kalk?

what type of skimmers do you guys typically use?

thanx for the suggestions, i was actually going to get a blue background today. any suggestions as to what hob filter to get? size etc? i was thinking of maybe getting a big one, something like an aquaclear 500, turning it all the way down, and maybe turning that into some sort of refugium? is...

there is a bigger type of turbo snails, i think they are called zebra turbos. i have two in my 75 gallon, and the hermits leave them alone, even though they devoured my mexican turbo population

im curious as to what you guys do for mantanence and if what(if any) suppliments you use etc.
