Thank you - so maybe 2 600gph

I have a 46g tank with a Fluval 305 canister filter and a protein skimmer. I don't currently have any powerheads and have a red slime algae issue. I want to add a powerhead. Is a hydor 1250gph to much for that size tank (36 inch wide)?

Thanks - is there a certain kind of power head that you would suggest?

I have a new 46g FOWLR tank that has been up for about 8 weeks now. I have 72lbs of live rock and also have live sand. I got a new Current sundial T5HO and in the past couple of days have had MUCH algae growth. From what my LFS tells me it is red slime. I also have alot of green/brown on...

I am thinking about getting one of these. I am wondering if it will do OK with a Valentini Puffer? Also, interested in anyother comments anyone might have regarding this urchin.

Thanks Justin. I just became a member and am glad that I didn't complete my profile yet as I live in Columbus, Oh and am a proud Graduate of OSU. Probably would not have gotten your response. Good luck next week #3 - State College is my #2 Big Ten team!

I am looking at purchasing a Sundial T5HO 36" for my 46 gallon fish only tank. Anyone have an opinion on this light system?

OK - I found a Sundial T5HO 36" that has dual built in timers for my 46 gallon tank. It's $220. This is a fish only tank with 72lb live rock- no corals and at this point I don't intend to get corals. Is this too much light for the fish (or is there such a thing as too much light)?

I think I'll check out your suggestion and wait to see if I get corals down the road. Thank you so much for taking the time to help!!!

I'm really just looking for something that will show the colors better but if I guess it wouldn't hurt to get something that could support corals in the future. At this point, I would have no idea what corals I would look at getting.

No - I'm just a beginner so thought I would keep it at fish only. I have 6 fish and a couple of invertebrates.

Thanks - what kind of lighting system would you recommend for $200 or under $300?

Hello - I have a 46 gallon bowfront tank that is 38" wide and my current light system is a hood with 1 flourescent tube. My tank is fish only with 72lb of live rock. Can anyone recommend a better lighting system that wont break the bank?

Thanks to everyone for your advice. I have been feeding it seaweed and formula 1 and 2 and until yesterday, it has been eating just fine. At this point the tang is about 4" in size. I guess I will just take him back to my lfs.

I have a Yellow Tang that is not eating and has some discoloration (white - not spots) around its gills and eyes. It is also swiming eratically on and off. My tank info is as follows: 46 gallon 72lb live rock and live sand Only 6 weeks old but cycle seems to be complete 8.2 ph nitrite, nitrate...
