I have a 75 gallon folr tank with a hang on overflow. It has about an inch drain line out of the box then into about 1.5 inch hose to my wet dry. I had to by a new return pump (600 gph), and it seems that it is just a little too much flow. It will suck my sump down then blow bubbles. It is an...

I am considering adding a fuge to a 75 gallon tank dsb 75lbs live rock. I have not taken great care of this tank in the past as I have to carry water up and down a set of steps. I would like to pipe the tank to my basement, but I will have about 17 feet of lift to contend with. My questions are...

Could I get some opinions on the Rainbow lifegard systems? I am looking to work my long neglected 75 fowlr (75 lbs) with a 5"dsb and 440 watts (2 10,000k and 2 03 actinic) into shape with a few equipment upgrades. I am looking at a mechanical filter and a chemical filter.

A good quality marine battery, cheap battery charger, and a 500-1000 watt power inverter will do the trick. Keep the battery charged with the trickle charge setting (low amp). You can stress test it with your equipment to see just what the maximum time is. I think that most of the smaller pumps...

We can make a difference in a small way!!!!!

The number means 1/8". A t-8 is 8/8 of an inch or 1 inch. A t-12 is 12/8 of an inch or 1 1/2 inch. These bulbs will interchange with no retrofit to the lamp HOLDER or ENDS. The ballast is quite different and will not interchange between the different bulb diameters

What are a couple of magazines a guy can subscribe to? I have a fowlr and would be interested in reading more on that topic and reef topics.

I have had the same problem with snails. I agree with beth that I am sure that mine were starving. It always leveled out with about 5 medium to small snails.

My lfs owner is grasping for answers. I told him about this board and he asked if I would post his problem. He is in need of Beth or Terry B. help. This problem has happened 3 times this year. He runs a very clean system, fw dips fish and will not sell them for at least a week after they start...

This is the post terry left me This is a good example of why I keep telling everyone to keep a cycled Qtank up and running at all times. It is frustrating that people don't listen and most of them won't even quarantine until after they kill some fish. Why does everyone resist quarantining? It is...

I have a hospital tank that is brand new. I put NITROFURAZONE in it, will it kill the starter filter media I put in there from show tank?:confused:
