    29g biocube

    X2 No not at all. You will need to upgrade to LED, T5's, Or Metal halide.

    My 234gal start

    I will take some new pics and post them soon. I am selling my metal halides and hopefully will have my new 60" led here Friday!! I've got some frogspawn, leather, anenomes,zoo's and others in here now.

    Advise on a 180 gallon setup

    Reeflo makes great return and closed loop pumps. Koralia makes some nice affordable powerheads that can be controlled via controllers or wave makers. Lighting you're either looking at metal halide or T-5 flourescent. I really like having an aquacontroller. Makes having a large tank much easier...

    how come no one told me this hobby cost so much!

    Most of the time patience and planning in this hobby saves a lot of money. Plan ahead and buy online (like your unions and bulkheads- way cheaper) or on equipment look for "previousely loved" equipment to save some coin. Now if I could only practice what I'm preachin.

    What type of bio pellets? Are they in a media bag in your sump or in a reactor?

    Lighting question for MH light

    Swap bulbs and test. Maybe fuse or bad ballast. But first isolate the problem.

    to small of skimmer

    Marlin, It's not going to hurt a thing. It just won't pull as much of the "gunk" out as an appropriate sized skimmer.

    Summer Sale & BBQ

    Are you going to have any Berghia? These seem to be hard to come by lately and a lot of people are seeking them. I'll be attending with my daughter for her 7th b-day :-)

    want plasma?

    Yes but does it apply to "all growing applications" like LED? This has killed aquarium led progress and choices.

    want plasma?

    Hopefully no one has ridiculous patents on this technology that prohibits competition like LED's have.

    To reef big? or not to reef big?? LOL

    As far as power goes, if your planning on going LED's, you won't see a huge spike. The reeflo darts are 3600gph at like 140 watts of power and 2 of those will be plenty for you. I'd look into buying a back-up dart just in case one goes down or loses a seal. They are great pumps but a back-up is...

    Perc and Maroon clowns paired?

    They are sharing a BTA. They have all the room in the world to be apart from each other but they are choosing to be together. I just get the song "Ebony and Ivory" stuck in my head thinking about it :-)

    Unhappy Anemones

    bta's don't like too much flow. How much are they getting? is there a lower flow area in your tank? Also it may take the new one some time to adjust.

    Perc and Maroon clowns paired?

    Hello, I have a percula and a maroon clown. They have been together for a little over a month. The Maroon clown has claimed both bta's. The Perc clown I have had for 6 months and has never came close to an anenome. In the past week the Maroon has been sharing an anenome with the perc. Does...

    Sickly hammer

    So I wnet ahead and rubber banded the loose peice to the skeleton. It's not pinching,just holding so flow won't tear it off. High flow may help? That's not what I would've thought, but I am definately still learning!! Apparently lthis was in a tank that had a calcium reactor go bad and spiked...
