    how many gph for 72 gallon?

    thanks for the help. I have a 800 gph on my return from my sump plus I'm going to do the maxi mod to a 1200, which is 2??. Then the mod should help me pump some more flow and dispurse it.

    how many gph for 72 gallon?

    Ok, I know it might be a stupid question and I did know the answer at one point. I have a 72gallon bow front and wanted to know how many gph turn over should I have? I'm thinking about making an in-line wave maker and need to know how big of a pump to get. Thanks for any help.

    Coral store location around Western Pa?

    Hi, I'm looking for a good coral store and I can't find much around where I live. Erie has the Sea Cave... which in very nice, but doesn't have a lot of Ricordea. And the only other one I know of is in Niles Ohio. So if anyone knows the area, and has some info on where I can get some Ric's or...

    How to catch a Lunar Wrasse

    I just had to catch mine yesturday.... getting to agressive... I had to move my live rock around until he was in the corner. Then put the net in front of him and start moving the rocks behind him. He swam right into it. I'm sure that was luck... thought I would be there all day.

    relocate ricordea

    I just got some nice ricordeas for my lfs. The problems is that there are several of them on a tubular piece of rock... meaning that there are some on both sides. I don't have any way of holding this piece of rock up so that both sides get light. Is there a way to move the rics from the bottom...

    T5 Question....

    from what I've read, yes. because pc lights can't reflect the back side of the bulb. The bulb is to big around to be able to curve the light back into the tank. The T5 bulbs are smaller making it easier to reflect the back side of the bulb into the tank. Making for a brighter light. I'm no...

    T5 Question....

    I'm hoping to see a difference. Although I'm only going to have 4x54. If it ends up not being enough... I'll order more!! :yes: Someone was saying to watch out for cheap T5 lights because they may not have good reflectors. I just saw in one of my order books I get, T5 retrofit reflectors. They...

    T5 Question....

    Bad news.... I just got my new lights.... Well, I got someones new lights. I have the worst luck... They sent me dual 65watt PC lights instead of T5 lights. I'm alittle pissed. Now I have to send them back and wait till they send me the right ones. My luck is soooooo bad, I'd order a tooth...

    T5 Question....

    Well I did order some lights.... I'll get the first set this Thursday and the second next week. We'll see how it goes. If they do suck, I can still use them on my sump. So either way, I'll get my moneys worth. I currently have a Jebo 36" PC lights on my 30g and they do the trick. I can't say...

    T5 Question....

    I'm in the same boat. I just upgraded from a 30g to a 72g bowfront and I've been doing the same research. I just bought one t5 setup for $50.00. I'm going to get that on the tank and let my corals adjust. Then I'm going to order another one..... So I feel your pain.
