    Thanks for all your input guys. And for opening up my eyes to some potential hazards. All your points make a lot of sense. I was only doing it to make it look a little cleaner and to cut back on the head loss of the pump. I have the Hydor ATO system and am using the Cobalt MJ1200 for the...

    I have a 20g Brute trash can that I'll be using for my ATO system. I would like to drill a hole at the bottom to run the tubing from my pump. Which will be placed at the bottom of the trash can, through the hole and lead to my sump. What I'm asking is what type of plumbing piece can I put in...

    Starting a new tank but not new to the hobby.

    Light arrived, but I'm not running it while the tank is cycling. Is it too bright?

    A couple of questions.

    I have a couple of questions. One, can anyone suggest a pump to pump salt water from my 20G Brute to my tank for a water change? It is about 4 1/2 feet from the bottom of the Brute to the top of the tank. Two, I would like to mark my Brute in 1 gallon increments. If I were to use a permanent...

    40 Breeder build/Cycling

    Here is my finished(for now) 40B build. I broke out the camera and took a few tonight. I'm doing the waiting game now. Trying not to rush things. I'm having a hard time when I have to go to my LFS to pic up some RO/DI water. But as soon as my unit comes in next week, I'll be better off...

    Thanks for having me.

    Well my 40B is going to be a reef. I started out with a 55 FOWLR. That is no longer up. Sorry to disappoint.

    Reef Radiance!

    I just received mine this week. Pro 180's and I love this fixture. Really bright. It's over my 40 as well so you can see how yours will possibly look. That's if I'm not too late and you already received yours.

    Starting a new tank but not new to the hobby.

    Here are some of my cycling tank shots.

    please help.

    Have you tried to just put the camera on auto and see how that turns out. With a D5100, auto might give you some pretty decent shots. good enough to share and not be embarrassed by them. At least until you learn a little more about the camera.

    Starting a new tank but not new to the hobby.

    I bought a shrimp and placed it in my tank. Raw. Now, is the shrimp supposed to cook while in the water? I put the frozen shrimp in and now I notice it looks like its been cooked. I know what you are thinking. My tank temp is 79 degrees. Was just wondering is this was a normal thing.

    Cobalt Neo-Therm heater

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. But when I read this, I was like uh oh. Because I really like the heater and would love to pick one up.

    OK. Good thing about not running the lights, because they haven't come in yet. Thanks.

    Cobalt Neo-Therm heater

    I was wondering if anyone out there is familiar with the Cobalt Neo-Therm heaters. If so, can you tell me if they can be placed horizontally in your sump? I read somewhere where it says they need to be set up vertically. I was wondering if that was true. Thanks.

    Starting a new tank but not new to the hobby.

    I just started a 40g breeder yesterday. As I am not new to the hobby, it has been a long time since I've started a tank cycle. I had a 55g for over 10 years and had to break it down. So, it's been about a year since the break down and here I am again. My 40B will be a reef. Mostly LPS...

    Fred's 40Breeder SPS dominated mixed Reef

    Beautiful tank. I am starting a 40B myself and I hope that one day it looks that good. What other fish do you have in there besides the 2 clowns?

    Need some advice and assistance

    I wasn't sure if I should create a whole thread since I already had one asking about return pumps. Didn't want to possibly get into trouble with admin :-)
