I drilled the bottom of my 24 gal Aquapod with no problems. There is enough room for a 1" drain and 3/4" return. Just be sure your stand pipe is measured and cut to the height you want the water to remain when off. Running a mag 7 on it now, but might be remaking into a seahorse tank. Good luck!

Juts to throuw in my $.02, I run an MSX 200 on my 180 gallon and as was said earlier the fit and finish isnt the greatest (still pretty good) but it performs like a champ. +1 zsqure on the used skimmer notion floated earlier as it is one of the most important and most expensive peice of...

That's incredible that you keep that kind of clarity skimmerless, amazing. Yes, I was referring to your fish list; you seem to have a very nice blend of sizes and personalities.

Wow, if everyone hasn't said it enough, this tank is SICK! I am cycling my 180 right now and am looking to a fish list similar to yours. I was wonder what your total is right now and what kind of skimmer are you running on your system? Thanks, oh yeah and for anyone who hasn't seen Coral Keepers...

+1 to all and to all a +1. In regards to the Lion, I doubt it's eating pods as that is just not its diet and it doesnt really have the mouth to catch them. You say he is too small for silversides, so how small is he? Live foods are the best thing to entice him to hunt and feed, could you do...

+1 on the RODI system, I have a 150 GPD/ 0TDS system from the same company and it works great! only get about 110 GPD honestly but its plently for what I need. Just found this thread and it is great! Your system is amazing and you can tell that it was well planned and thought out vs how most of...

Lionfish should be fed daily or every other day. Where did you get the lion from, and what were they feeding it? You could try frozen silver sides (should have at you LFS), and use your feeding stick to dangle in front of it. The feeding stick should be used to entice the fish by wiggleing it...

Sorry, I was in San Diego all weekend. ++++1 on the Chemiclean it is incredible and once you have the salt you can do a water change and get your system back on track. Your goby may be looking bad due to the fact that the cyano may be interferring with its feeding. Stress can cause fins to look...

Hope you had a good dinner, and glad to hear your tank is clean again. In regards to your upgrade question I think it is always good unless your turnover is something ridiculous like 30x your volume. I use 3 Maxi Jet 1200's with the Sure Flow 1600 upgrades (2100 gph/ each) and they are hooked up...

I just found this thread and read it all. I am sorry to hear about you troubles with your system but your brother is right it happens to us all and as long as you learn from it, then it's worth it. To toss in my .02 cents, I would not add any further live stock until you get these ich/disease...

Thanks for the input, what is the size of your tank and total watts if you dont mind?

Hello All, long time reader first time poster...and I am sorry that my first post on SWF.com is another lighting thread, but here it goes. I am setting up a 180 gal. mixed reef (Zoos, Mushrooms, Softies, and maybe a couple of LPS) and I am trying to install adeqate reef lighting with throwing...
