No. They will thrive with good light and water quality

Thanks for the support. My friend was just going to do it for fun becasue he works there and can do it for free.

Marine snow has no nutritional value. Its like potato chips and soda for corals.

Yeh, its a volunteer thing. I will be applying in march at my local aquarium. If you want to make a career out of it I sugest majoring in marine biology. You could alway be a dive boat captain.

He likes the lids because of evaporation and he is worried about fish jumping out. Bang Guy, it isn't an oil coating. It is some compound that is built one molecule at a time very, very accuratley.

I am in 100% of Israel. As a Jew I was brought up with the idea that Israel was a Jewish refuge that should be protected at all cost. Our people have been persecuted for thousands of years. We need to protect the only Jewish country in the world. If I wasn't in collage right now I would go and...

My friend and fellow reefer works at an optics company. He has recently designed a coating for the lids on his tank that will allow 100% transmission of light within the visible spectrum and will also be corrosion resistent. This is usefull becasue light naturally loses 10-15% of its intensity...

How can you tell? Should I do a water change during the cycle? If so, then when?

Thanks. You don't think its too much rock?

Thanks for the quick responses, looks like I will be getting free water

The only reason I ask is because I work at a chemical plant and can get DI water for free.

Would just DI water be alright or do I need RO?

Thanks a lot I will try and post some picks when I set it up this weekend.

Thanks. Should I add the cheato after the cycle is done or right away? I'm cycling with shrimp. Should I leave the tails on? How much for a 12 gal cube?

I know people here (me included) love pics, but it is just an empty tank with no water in it. Not very exciting. I was hoping to get the fitration worked out before I started my cycle. So if anyone could comment on the ceramic rings/bioballs it would be appreciated.

I had a few questions about the nanocube. Should I use the ceramic rings, bioballs, and carbon or would 15# of LR be enough for filtration? SHould I use the surface skimmer? It is a plastic peice that fits over the overflow to create an overflow box. This would keep the talk level constant, but...
