This is a tank I take care of. 1600gal 3ft nurse shark

I use to work for a company that used both Acrylic and Glass. Acrylic bottom and top and Glass sides. Best of both worlds.

I like Ocean's Apart. It is only open on saturdays. They have really nice live rock and corals and high quality fish.

I have had really good luck with ASM skimmers. A G1 or G2 would be great for your tank. They seem to be one of the top rated skimmers.

I would take back the HOB filter and get a HOB protein skimmer. One such as a Bak Pak would be just fine and can be found for less then $100 online.

You can buy a chiller. A 1/10 HP one would be fine for your tank. They do cost a nice chuck of change but do a great job. Running a fan works well. Can probably do a 5 degree drop in temp with this method.

Just a little humor... I am sure that your seahare's are gorgeous. I did once see a nice looking black with pink spots seahare but usually they are the green ones. To keep one alive I am sure you need to put algea sheets in the tank or feed them in some another way, right.

I would only use a Seahare as a last resort for hair algea. They will die if they dont get enough food and then become toxic and could crash a tank. I would stay with hermits and snails to maintain a tank. You could get a lawnmower blenney. Not to mention they are the ugliest thing your could...

I do think that product is misleading. If I was new to this hobby I would probably have thougth the same. That being said, find a new LFS, wait for it to cycle, do some research, and be patient. It is a great hobby and very rewarding.

Most of the stuff it comes with is useless(filters, sand, lava rock) for a reef. I would imagine you could sell off the stuff you dont use but it still seems a little high to me. I would pass if I were you and keep looking.

5ppm is a little high. When my RO/DI unit gets above 3 I switch out the filters and am back to 0. People recommend changing the membrane and filters about every 6 to 12 months. They arent cheap but the PPM will just keep rising if you dont.

I like anyone of the Watchman or Shrimp gobies.

I would not recommend siphoning the sand. If it was crushed coral then yes but not live sand. You will remove a lot of beneficial creatures that help with your filtration. A cleanup crew is all you need to take care of it. Maybe a Goby as well.

They are a good safety item but as teen said, if they get tripped when you are gone it can be a disaster. If they get even a little water on them they will turn the circuit off and cut power. And in the saltwater hobby spills happen....

I could not believe my eyes today, Costco selling large fish tanks. Looks pretty decent. Does not give much info though. They are even selling service contracts. I wonder if there wonderful return policy would work for that. http://www.costco.com/Browse/Product...opnav=&browse=

The worst thing about keeping a flounder is that they need a lot of open sandy space to swim. Also they grow extremely fast. I had one that tripled in size in 7 months. They also need to be hand fed silversides every other day. But they are really fun to watch and the ones I have seen did not...

get a maxijet 1200 not a 900, works great on my tank. Just make sure you buy one with the venturi attachment. Good little skimmer for tanks under 50 gallons. Great looking tank. The more rock the better.

is that your shark on ----?
