My tank is predrilled with drain & Return, so I will be setting my main filter area in my stand. Wet/Dry (Minus Bioballs) already have the unit and figured use for the top filter tray and perhaps could add something to the bioball chamber?, Skimmer, and 25-30lbs LR in main tank... Any ideas...

Thomas thanks for the reply, By chance would you happen to have some pictures of your filter area? I'd love to take a look at the experienced reefers setups and get some ideas. It seems you are using a wet/dry yourself? Are you using bioballs or removed them? Thanks again,

Thanks everyone for the reply... I was actually talking about the small pieces of rock rubble in the first part of the url, not the cubes at the bottom... I guess my question is now is if I have a good prefilter won't that foam take out any large debris or dirt that could clog the rock like your...

I'm still in the process of picking between a REFUGE or a wet/dry for my 29g reef, although wondering if I did decide to go with the wet/dry would using small pieces of dead rock act better then bio balls? I believe one of the major problems with wet/dry's is the nitrate levels and hoping the...

danrw84, Hope everything is going well with your tank and selling it. Just wondering if you still have your excel sheet, I'd like to say your tank was very beautiful and would like to look at your maintenance in detail. Thanks!

Tim, nice to hear from you again. Yes, that is a small concern. With going the route I am planning there is that fear that will I still be able to run my tank with a very small amount of live critters from the 1 or 2 pieces of live rock. I will be using Bio Sand so that will contain already...

Thanks guys for the responses ! I feel its a shame to let this rock go to waste, so I figured I'd use it. Also , to be honest I don't really want get alot of live rock, I'd rather minimize my risk of getting unwanted critters such as bristle worms, and the mantis shrimp. I'm considering...

Getting ready to setup my new 25g Flat back, I have about 20-30lbs of Dead Rock from a previous setup. Its been in a bucket for about 1 year, and very white with a few hints of color patchs. I plan to add 1 piece of live rock to seed this batch... My question is will this be ok to do this all...

*bump* Any takers? Its still available.

I'd like to just get the rock to a point where I could insert it into my tank, and then allow it grow further once its inside.. Guess I gota fiqure out what the point is, to allow it in :/

Welp, Gonna try turning about 20-30lbs of dead rock I have leftover from a previous tank into live.. I've got my bucket ready, air pump and stone, and just fiquring out how much live rock I need to seed this bucket.. any suggestions? Thanks!!

Sure my email is stonepran@gamebox.net or stonepran@ameritech.net .. I was going to just lay it down on whatever cover came with my tank, although if thats not an option there is small stands that attach to the sides for $6.99 which I had the option to buy, but passed. Let me know! :)

I'm located in michigan, so if your near me you can pick it up.. Or I can ship it shouldn't be much.. I'll cover shipping. I'd like to get around $100 for it, Since i'm starting up this tank if you have any extra tank supplies magnafloat, salinity tester, additives, pump, maybe even a...

Hello, I recently purchased a coralife 65x2 Power Compact 24". Coralife Aqualight Deluxe Series, with dual fans. Brand new never been used, still in box. I'm actually switching to a system with a canopy that has lighting installed on the top, and really can't use this. I bought this premature...

Looking to setup my 29g, and trying to find a good acrylic tank manufacture that has the tank setup predrilled withi Pre/Filter and possible return hole.. Any Recommendations? Thanks

Yep, actually that's probably the right way of saying it. I'd like a tank with a built-in overflow so I don't need to waste tank space... I was thinking about a system with a built on rear wet/dry like the UniAqurums although My 29G will now shrink to 22GAL with the space the built on wet/dry...

Thanks for the responce. Actually I don't want a hang on, but just a tank with trickle so I don't have to put a big box inside the tank and waste space. I'd still like to use a wet/dry in my stand. Maybe what i'm saying is impossable, and with a built on trickle on the tank i'd need a hang on...

Well it seems I'm leaning towards going the Wet/Dry Method with my acrylic 29G , wondering if anyone knows of some manufactures that make built-in trickle on the rear? Also.. With a built on trickle, do most wet/dry have a way to connect the return box outside the tank, rather then inside? Thanks!

I'm setting up a 29 GAL reef system... Wondering to either go with a Wet/dry, Or perhaps a XP1 FilStar Canister Filter.. Anyone have experience with these models, or any views on which to use.

I was thinking of getting my first batch of rock shipped, Found some good deals on Tonga Slab rock and was wondering if having it shipped would help kill off any unwanted creatures such as mantis shrimp.. It appears the rock will ship without water, and just wrapped in paper. Will alot of the...
