before ordering the T5 light fixture for my new 90 gal I have the last doubt: hanging or legs? till now I thought I wanted legs, main reason is not to deal with installation, however what are pro-cons of both? any suggestion?

I narrowed down my search for a 90 ngal reef to the Nova Extreme Pro Six Lamp and the AquaticLife Six Lamp T5 HO. Both have the same number of bulbs and provide the same amount of light. The Aquatic Life costs $150 to $200 more than the Nova, beside the timers I cant find any logical reason for...

I'm about to order a new RR tank to replace my 29 gal and I can't decide between a 75 and a 90 gal. I understand the benefit of having 15 extra gal and vertical space however I also remember preferring 29 to 37 gal tank due to easier reaching the bottom. Any input? Should I just flip the coin?

Do pods need light in the fuge or it's just their "environment" that does?

I managed to convince my wife about upgrading our 29 gal to a 75 gal, it took me a while but I won this battle ;-) I'm on the market for a good lighting system that will allow me to keep a bta and some clams, would 6x54 watt of T5 work or I have to go MH?

Hi have a 1.5 gal hexagonal tank and I was thinking about using it to culture pods. I understand they need a little bit of sand, some rocks, an air pump (with no stone) just to move the water, a handful of chaeto, a light and food. I read somewhere that the easiest way to "harvest" them is to...

Is there any mandarin that is easier to keep? I read somewhere the green mandarin is easier to feed. Also are they compatible with Yellow Gobies?

After 30 minutes of acclimation I introduced a Royal Gramma in my 29 gals. That was 3 days ago and that was the last time I have seen it. The RG is sharing the tank with a sixline, a true percula, a Chromies and a Yellow Goby. Is it possible he/she is still hiding?

How do you feed the frozen cubes to your fish? I take some water from the tank in a shot glass where I put one cube, after the cube is defrosted (5 minutes??) I pour the content in the tank in 3 or 4 times. This sounds simple and logical to me however I read somewhere this can become a source of...

Moving a few rocks around I ended up with an extra piece of Xenia so I decided to stick it to a rock in the fuge. After a couple of days it's still "pulsing". Anybody else has some easy coral in the fuge?

Halimeda id doing EXTREMELY well both in the dt and in the fuge unlike the cheato that disappeared in about one month, is this plant beneficial to the quality of the water or purely decorative?

LFS has some cool bi-color chromis, they are black with white tail. Are they aggressive like damsels or kind of peaceful like B/G chromis? I would like to add one to my 29 gal, at this time I have a true percula, a yellow goby and a 6-line.
