Yes moving the tank is not a task that I look forward to. It will be removing the wall that the tank is built into. ( A-ha, I forgot to mention it will be built in with a 4x8 ft 1.5in thick acrylic window) That wall will need to be replaced but I have 9 ft of sliders to get it out of the house...

AW2- I feel honored to be your 1000th post.

I am not looking to dissassemble the tank. Just looking to be able to move it. If it is steel I will be easily able to jack it onto dollys and get it out of my house. Even if this tank becomes the sump of my future tank, I would still like to be able to reuse it. BTW it is so nice to have a...

The reason I want a metal cage around the tank instead of wood is I want to be able to move this tank in the next ~5-8 years and not just chainsaw it out when I sell my house. If I can move it I will not have to build another tank in my new house. Not many people want the responsibility of a...

I am going to build a large tank 12x5x5ft. I want to make a steel angle iron cage and line the inside with 2 layers of 3/4 in plywood, and then fiberglass the wood. My question is will the metal cage effect the sharks? I know sharks are very sensitive to magnetic and electrical fields. There...

if you are planning for SPS corals you will need much more current unless you have a large tank and have good linear flow. My ols 55 was turning 25x/hr and i was having great results with SPS and clams. my new 90 will be turning 27x/hr. You can never have too much flow.

I believe Zebra muscles are freshwater inverts. we have them in lake Charlevoix in northern Mi.

The velocity pumps are known to raise the temp in a 55 more than 12 degrees. for this reason only i went with a iwaki wmd40rxlt. these pumps have a running temp of 140 deg and are not very well insulated. the manufacture doesn't even recommend these pumps

I just got my new CSL 3x175 MH retro kit. It has 10K bulbs and I am going to have 3 110watt VHO bulbs running also. I need to know what colors are recommended for my VHOs. Going to be doing SPS and clam tank. thanks

I had a terrible hair problem about 5 weeks ago it smothered out some beautiful SPS. I have come to find that the problem was ditritus settling out in the hair algae. this was cured by adding another maxi-1200 to keep waste in the water column so that it could be filtered out. the problem was...
