Thanks again, You all have been great. Ya I talked to a couple local reliable LFS stores and they all said don't waste your money. They all are built roughly the same. Sounds like it is down to either a Corallife or a Typhoon III or Kent. What's the diff? Do you all know? I want to have it...

JOncat24 thanks for the reply. So your subject .02? What does that mean? Thanks and how fast can you fill a 5 gal bucket?

Lineman1- You said you just want a RO for water changes? Do you have a RO unit currently for top off? -Alison

Sorry, looks like I posted the same question. I am all confused again myself. I was all set to go with the SpecraPure RO/DI Maxcap 90 GPH but now I'm all up in the air again. I don't need that expensive or that high GPH but everyone on other sites swared up and down on the SpecraPure being...

Thanks for all your replies. What stats are you talking about with the RO that are zero? Your silicates or something? I guess a lot of the biggies on sites said something about Specrapure is best with their cartridges and technology being more advanced. Especially another popular Reef...

Hi, Wanting to setup my Reverse Osmosis system ASAP and wondering which one to get? Everyone has told me to get a SpecraPure Maxcap RO/DI and I am really leaning this way but worried about longterm cost in the DI part of it. I don't care too much about upfront cost just longterm cost in...

Hi, It is a 4 ft. tank. Why do you say only a 6' tank? It is the same water weather it is 4' or 6'. There is lots of live rock for him to hide in and swim through. On other sites they have also said add the blue first so I'll do that then. It is a small to medium blue if that helps. Thanks...

Thanks for the replies guys! Ya I think I'll get the blue first and give him a few weeks by himself to adjust. He is totally non agressive and should be fine. He is in with a yellow tang in my mom's tank so he should be fine towards a yellow tang. I have a lot of rock for him to hide in and...

Well, Got that used 120 gal setup about 2 months ago now! very hapy and excited! Just thought I would inform. Came full of corals and whatnot. -Ali

Hi, I have a 120 gal reef and only have a pair of true perks and a bangaii cardinal. I want to add my mom's blue tang that has outgrown her tank and has been in a ick free environment for years. I also want to add a yellow tang. Question: What do I add first due to tang agression and ick...

Hi, The fish Store on Rosevelt is a good one. Their prices are ok. There is a new awesome fish store called Barrier Reef in Renton that has some very good prices and they are increadably informative. I was actually just down there this morning. I got a Rose bubble tip for 45 bucks I believe...

Ya not a problem- The good thing is they divide quite redily so you should be able to find one through someone local. I don't know if anyone else has this issue but mine will not take to the sandbed. It will only attach to a rock, but then they stay there and don't seem to stray from the...

I bought a 120 reef! FINALLY I found the perfect used setup on reef... you know the website. They are frontiers on the web. Anyways, Its a 120 gal walkaround style, 48x24x24 size, dual 250 electronic balasts, sump, with IWAKI dual pumps, ETSS 600 skimmer, lots of corals, 2 cleaner shrimp and...

Hi Newbieabc- That's a RBA or Rose bubble tip anemone. Very popular. I have a green one in my tank. True perks just LOVE that variety. My favorite anemone. -Alison

Hi, Here's my 2 cents since my fellow reefers aren't helping you out: Unless you can afford lighting for your rock you plan to get I would wait and get lighting first. The die off from no lights could cause you to loose your fish from not having proper lighting. Emperor filters are pretty...

Hey Murph 145- Where is that picture? That is what I want my reef to look like!

Hi, Thanks for all the replies! Does anyone have any pictures of the super hard coral's run under t-5's? I heard TEC is the way to go due to the individual reflectors. I might just play it safe and get MH's for the middle then do t-5's for the actinic's. Then I get that cool shimmer and can...

Hi, I'm working at setting up a 120 gal tall 24" deep 48" total length reef setup and wondering which way to go with lights. I was told by a couple saltwater store people at various locations that T-5's are way better than Mh's and they can keep the same stuff and stuff actually is doing better...

Looks like it's all sold. I REALLY want a 120 gal. tall reef with everything and willing to pay good for it. ali
