    RDP does not work.....

    Hey everyone, Just a note to let you know, don't even waste your time with running your refugium lights reverse from the main tank. I tried it, and was just about ready to start running it to the main tank(still waiting for the nitrates to completely zero out, they are still about 5 ppm)...

All plumbed, but has yet to be fired up(nitrates almost gone-10 ppm).I still have to get a door on the front of the refugium cabinet since it's running on a RDP.

    refugium pump

    Well, after weeks of planning, lots of scavenging parts, driving 4 hours to get bulkhead fittings, and spending a whole day driving store to store looking for a cabinet to house it, my refugium will have water in it today. *Crowd cheers in the background*:D I'm still trying to figure out what...

    surface scum

    I have been battling a greenish/oily scum on the water surface for about a month now. I did a search, and all threads say to point a powerhead at the surface. That would be fine if the tank hadn't been running problem free for over a year. I am inclined to believe something's off, I just can't...

    Min. tank size for harlequin tusk?

    I just got a 65 corner tank, and I'm trying to come up with a fish or two to go in with a hawiian zebra moray. I'd like active fish that stay out in the open areas of the tank. I am thinking a potters angel, and one other fish(tuskfish). If the tusk won't work, any other ideas are appreciated...
