I have a valentini puffer in my fo and he turn's almost compleatly white, and just blends in with the rock work. sometimes i'll catch him at the top of the tank, lying verticaly on the glass. I feel there the coolest to look at while there sleeping

I have a porky and valentini also, I have no problem with them. as for putting smaller fish in there with them, it all depends on the porky's size, I feed mine fresh water rosies, he devoures them, but I have a couple damsels in there and he don't bother them. as for the valentini, he won't...

3 tats, and 10 piercings

thanks alot for all the help, on my other post also. I think that I am finally convinced, not that it took much. believe it or not I saw these ballasts at home depot and had this crazy thought running through my head, that they might be able to run them. I came on the board and then I saw all...

ren....will I be able to put two 48" bulbs on one of those ballasts, or do you think that I should get two of them, or do you think it matters

alright, I am one of those newbies. I have made several post about this topic, and definetly didin't get this good of a responce, this is great, i'm finally learning..lol. from what you have said I understand that you don't get vho performence out of no ballsts, but what will happen if you do...

thank you guys for the help. I was planning on adding two, possibly four vho actinics..thanks for the pics. what type of ballast are you running those uri super actinics on, and how much did the vho set up cost.

yea, I didin't realize how high it actually was until I put it on the tank. it looks preety good though, it's is big as my stand <img src="graemlins//eek.gif" border="0" alt="[eek]" />

I built my canopy today for my new MH. the canopy is going on a 75gal reef tank. my question is, I made the canopy 1'11" high. I did alot of research. and everyone said to keep the MH, atleast 8" off the water, so I figured I whould keep them at 12" off. the other reason I made it so high was...

I know, I know....you guys have to get tired of answering all the lighting question's, but so far I think the lighting of the tank, is one of toughest dicision's. well anyway's, I have the oppertunity to add two 175w MH magnetic ballasts. one 175w 10,000k and 1 175w 5,000k. all for 200$ that...

the rock is very nice, but remember it is transhiped. which means that it hasen't actually been in water for a while. so you definitly need to cure it...I just got 45pds from ffexpress and was very happy with it. If you do get the transhiped rock it all comes from the same person. his name is...

once again, thank you to everyone. I wish I could shake your hands. you guys have helped me out so much in the past, and I'm shure there will be many more times to come. unfortunatly, I am not using r/o yet, I haven't been able to afford it just yet. as for the copper in take? I am going to the...

nothing there. sorry

what kinda lighting do you have, and what are your water peramiter's. what the aneneme is doing is trying to find a good spot. if everything is alright in your tank, he should not be moving

also, the only coral's that I still have living is the mushrooms that don't look good at all, some pulsing xina, and sume button pulps. I lost the sea apple 3 days ago, he was looking to bad, so I had to get rid of him, as far as I know he did not expell his waste or anything like that, he never...

well it's gunna be long but here i go. I purchased the tank on july 12-2001. when I started, there was the tank, aqua clear skimmer, and sump-with 2 sponges and the bio balls, 20pds of base rock, crushed coral-100pds, 2 powerheads, regular floresent light's, an overflow to take the water from...

i just finished my refugium, and it didin't cost me that much at all, maybe 20$. all you need to get is the pvc, some plexiglass ( make shure that you wash this really good before you put it in the tank) that you can get from home depot, some live sand, and a couple small pieces of live rock...

I don't know but what I think you are saying is that the water is not going through the u tube. to get this going, all you have to do is take some air line, put it inside the u until it reaches the top of the u (where it's curved) make shure both ends of the u are submerged in water and then...

thanks to everyone that is trying to help me out. even though everything is going wrong with the tank, there is no way that i whould give up. there are to many people on this board that give me great motivation. so do you guys think that I should just take the bio balls out. if so should I do it...

alright, like I said in the first post, I have had many problems so far on my quest for the best saltwater tank ever, lol, I know that will never happen, just figured I whould through it in, but about a a mounth and a half ago, I added my 45pds of live rock, that was cured, and 120pds of live...
