I am absolutely dying of reef tank withdrawals . It’s been almost a year now with no tanks setup… I can’t take it.

For those that have their sumps setup a floor down from the display... what is the best way to set it up? Do you have to do anything special for the sump inlet?? Thanks,

which ever works best for you!! I personally like weekly water changes because it's easier for me but if you're not able to do it weekly, monthly is ok too.

What is your alkalinity level?? Don't try to raise the calcium level with the kalk... you're correct that it is intended to "hold" the levels. Reef Advantage will work to increase the calcium level but you need to know your alkalinity reading.

some type of rock anemone I think... definitely a type of pest anemone imo.

For those of you that have had your BB Tanks running for a while now... do you still like it?? any problems?? I am moving and since I have to disturb my sand bed anyway I'm considering a BB in the display. It will be a 110g Reef. All comments are welcome.

When you look it up on *bay it says "This is Brand New 2007 in the box Catfish Lighting 48" 216 Watt Power Compact Light!" ?? I dunno??

I know SCSInet but the fixture he is looking at is a Power Compact. Look it up on *bay.

There are many people in the Salt Lake valley that use that rock with great success. The rock was supposedly formed like 3200 years ago. I personally have never used it but again many are... Look up the Wasatch Reef Club

I agree with Tizzo... in the past I have ran carbon 24/7, once a month & never. Now I'll run carbon every once in a while when the water needs polished.

I just looked it up real quick and what they are is Power Compacts... which do well for soft reef or FOWLR aquariums.

Normally about 4-weeks. There are many factors but if the new 125lbs of LR is still curing it will be about 4-weeks. It sounds like the cured LR is keeping up with any ammonia/ nitrites from the other rock at this point.

Maybe but patience is the key to success in this hobby.

Try live macro algae...

That's fine... you're welcome to use any of my pictures... :)
