So I've been searching the forum pages for simple answers and keep getting poor results. Also, the forum has been a bit buggy searching lately. I currently have a 36" Coralife Aqualight Pro with 1-150W MH 10k and 2-64W PC Actinics. I've had the tank up and running since late 2006 and had this...

I thought I was going to learn about emerald crabs in this thread, but instead I learned new feeding techniques. I knew I joined this forum for a reason. Never know what your going to learn day to day.

Very Nice. Wish I went to a coral swap.

Do you have a Walmart in your town? If so, you can get 5 gallon refillable jugs and fill them up at a ro/di machine. Most Walmart's should have the filling stations. It usually only costs $2.90/5 gallons, which should last you a while for water changes in your 29g biocube. You should also use...

I'm about 99% sure I'm going. Just convinced the wife. Thanks for the heads up...

coralreefer, That tank looks sweet. Can you please PM me with where you ordered it from?

Flricordia, Can you email me so I can ask you a few questions? I have some questions that require a PM and you can't/wont receive PM's. You can email me: umbrellacorp2008 at gmail.com Thanks.

First question I have is, what type of sand did you add to your tank? Was it live sand or salt water tank sand from your LFS? I used to clean fresh water tanks for Dr. offices. I moved a 75 gallon tank for one of the doctors because he had it in front of a window which was causing the Acrylic...

Is there a benefit to having the lights closer or are they better further away? Were only talking about 4 to 8 inches of difference. Is it going to change things that much?

meowzer, Where do you live in Oklahoma? I was just working there for a little over a year until late last summer. My wife and I were in McAlester then Oklahoma City (Bricktown). We miss OKC.

I think my lights might be too close to my tank. I have a 55 gallon tank that is open top. The tank is about 20" deep from the top of the tank to the top of the sand bed. My light is a Coralife Aqualight. It is 280 Watts. (1x150 MH 10,000k) (2x65 Watts PC Actinics) My lights a hung from the...

Kind of looks like a Morph to Rastas or at least similar.

Looks like some aiptasia on the left between the zoas. I would get rid of it fast. The aiptasia that is. Zoas looks great, Originally Posted by NYHCx516x 2 items. 1 - any ID on these? (pic was taken under atinics, so that may distort them) 2 - the look more like pallys i think? If so, what...

Thanks for the info. Now to convince the wife.
