I am going to buy a new skimmer for the 75g. At first I was going to get the aqua c ev120, then I realized the 180 is only 40.00 more. Question for pump. They recommend either: • Sen 700 • Mag 700 • Rio 3100 • Dolphin DP-800 They recoommended 2 others, but out of my price range, so which would...

I am upgrading my skimmer. Is the Aqua C Remora EV 120 hard to plumb? I have never plumbed anything ;) Does all of the tanks exit water get plumbed into it? Also, was looking at the Urchin. It is cheaper and looks easier to use. Any difference in performance? I asked on somebody elses skimmer...

I have asked different people and read different places, and I have accumulated umpteen different ways to do it. I am sure someone on this site has listed a proper way to do it. Please send a link to a post that has this information, or tell me your experiences. I have a 75g in my bedroom. I...

I am looking for power heads that hang?? All I have seen have suction cups. Do they work? I am getting my tank ready to cure LR but checking for deadpots before I get too involved. It looks like I have a few after putting in spray bar, but that is better than blowing fish all over the...

Hi, I have a 75g with sump and bio balls. Do I need a skimmer? Oh, I am changing my tank to reef. I would not know how to plumb one into my sump, as everything is already set. So, was thinking of a hang on?? I cant spend a FORTUNE on one, but can pay a reasonable amount. I was looking at the...

I had to STRONGLY dose my tank for ich. (no corals yet) MY QT is not cycled yet so not an option. How many water changes to get water right, what tests to use before putting in coral? ....plus, I really wanted to see if I FINALLY got my avater right!! Took me ten times...lol so be patient with...

GEEZ! I bought a used tank from an lfs, came with a used heater 200 watt. Of course themometor broke. I bought a 300 watt since it said 75 g-90g..i have 75g. I can't get that bloody thing stabilized for :mad: . If I put it at 75 it puts temp at 80, I have been trying to lower to 78. I move it a...

stupid question again :notsure: I read on here where someone had a nasty hitch hiker that started eating his fish. So what is the benifit of cured verses uncured. I ask, because where I want to get some more, theirs is very cured, and all hithhikers are gone. Seems a pro con situatation. If...

Before I fired the maintenace guy, we were talking, during his last visit, and I told him i was going reef. He told me I had too much current??? I thought I was supposed to have a lot of current for sponges and such, I guess it would be hard to get them to stick somewhere...lol I do have a LOT...

Hi all, as some of you know, I had this maintenca guy that worked for the guy I bought my tank from. Tank is about 3 months old. He has never checked the water, brought over fish I did not order (I can't drive) then of course I would think it was pretty, so my bill would be astro! Seems to me he...

I was planing on changing my folr to a reef system, but then read in the archives of venomous. I don't understand all of the coral names etc. So have to ask out right. I have adult onset epilepsy. I can have very bad seizures, they can be triggered by different things, sudden movement, loud...

Getting into reef, new to the hobby so want to start out used until I get more into it (and learn what I am doing). Looking for a nice light though. Must fit under my canopy. I don't want it hanging from my ceiling. I have a 75 gallon tank, I think it is 48"..I will have to measure tomorrow...

I recently bought a pink tailed trigger (about 3 days ago) He is still hidiing and and not eating. Should I be concerned? Stacey ps I saw him eat flaked food at LFS and that is what they have been feeding him.

The owner of my maintence co and one of his assistace is AWESOME. But, I am disabled so wanted to go to the store by myself to see different fish. The guy there I did not know. I caught a ride, and fell in love with a trigger......I can't remember what he said it was, but one of the less...
