thanks

can you guys give me ideas of the best way to have pictures hosted. I am just starting up a saltwater tank. My shipment just arrived from lifereef. I got a refugium, skimmer, and sump and was very impressed with it. I got a few pictures of them to start my "new tank" pictures but not sure...

I am no expert..and i think the people that are experts have got you going in the right direction. In your first few threads it seemed pretty obvious you didn't have near the filtration, circulation, or your time to be successful. I am guessing since you don't even like doing water changes you...

daceman, can you tell me how big your show tank is and how much rock is in it. That is about how I want my rock to look.

I would have to drive in from reno but am interested in your rock if i could get a picture of a few pieces. thank you Coryherb@charter.net

I am obviously not an expert. But...logically, light disperses in all directions, the reflectors attempt to initially reflect the light so that it disperses less. But as the light travels through the air it will disperse as it travels, even what was initially at a perfect 90 degree angle to...

adding just ole rocks is always okay providing there is nothing toxic on them. Adding live rocks could cause a cycle because stuff on them is dying at the time you put it in. But dried up non live rock is just adding a decoration :). I would give them a good rinsing and plop them in.

you definitely need a larger tank for that specimen. I don't think you have near enough flow for it either.

little bugs. I believe they look like little specs in the aquarium. Variation of colors but usualy dark or white. Most people have a place in the refugium for them to propogate but with enough live rock they will do so in the main aquarium as well. A pile of live rock rubble helps.

I think I have a plan for my lights. But have a few questions. First here is the plan. ARO Ballast for two 6' Actinics. Reef Optix III x 3 PFO HQI Dual Ballast PFO HQI Single Ballast Now Questions The pendants can be put in a hood? Will I need to use angle brackets? How do you mount the...

dark4p ripped me off on live rock here. I wanted to buy 200 pounds. Gave him half 250 bucks to hold for me as he agreed but never could find him to give him the other half or to get my original money back. He has gotten a few bad references on ---- I noticed now. Guess he took a bunch of...

my wife surprised me with dinner on valentines day. The surprise wasn't dinner( i am the type of person that would rather stay home) it was the fact I could order lobster. I haven' t had lobster in like 5 years. MMM If clams taste like lobster I am raising them to eat when I start my tank...

it looks like your talking about the CL system? I still plan on running a mag 4 way if that is what you mean so my CL return pipes will be coming from that.

that is a nice plumbing job..but not sure what part of it is the manifold. :confused:

page 11 ..it has to end soon!! :D

manifold :notsure:

what is a manifold and what is a split return. He is running the returns one to each side of the sump with the skimmer in one side and the return in the middle. So if that is a split return..yes. Don't know what a manifold is. edit..i should say he is setting it up so a return goes to each...

update; Talked Jeff at lifereef. He sold me an all inclusive package of skimmer, fuge, sump, and two pumps. I am going with a mag12 for the skimmer and a little giant 4 for the return. He is doing all the plumbing related to the above items. It will be a 40x13x14 26 gallon sump and a...

I didn't say it was a bad idea at all :). I was just hoping for stuff that I wouldn't think to stock. Like a few other posters posted. Like certain medications. I saw someones fish room in a thread and they had a little tool organizer filled with medications and stuff. I couldnt' read the...

thanks guys. I didn't think of battery powered pumps and don't know what methylene blue is but will find out. I have already bought a 55 gallon barrel, two 35 tubs, and two buckets so should be okay there. I have filled the 55 and one of the tubs already for mixing saltwater. The RO/DI...
