    Hey hey, good choice on tanks!!!!!! It really depends on what type of corals you intend to keep. What lighting are you going with? For SPS you need high flow and bright lights, A softie tank you can get away with lower flow and duller lights. What way are you leaning to? Sump with...

    Thanks for all the Love!!! My high calcium was a stupid mistake that should have never have happened. I got lazy when dosing my calcium, I didn't test at first when changing calcium brands. I ended up putting in three times the amount needed, I didn't test for a few weeks, due to being...

    Thanks!!!! I went With the Tek T-5 Fixture, really love the look! I would say that a larger tank would be easier to maintain, only because you have more margin for error due the higher volume of water. With the smaller the tank, the more difficult it begins to keep levels stable. As long as...

    Update! So heres a new FTS, plus some shot of my german blue/green. The camera is acting up, it washed out the FTS, and isn't showing the blue in the frag. Everything is doing well, I am having an out break of algae, partly due to the location in the room, near the window. I am going to invest...
