    yeah, I am slighty confused as to what it actually does.

    EV-180 issues

    Really? You had the water that far up? Hmmm. Perhaps I should open my ball-valve all the way. When I have done that in the past it didn't even get frothy at the top of the water though.

    EV-180 issues

    The pump is located so it is getting new water. It is similar to Krish's setup except that is sits in the sump. It has always been this way. I hadn't considered a problem with the injector. The water seems turbulent enough and seems like it gets enough bubbles but maybe I am wrong. When I...

    EV-180 issues

    The mag-12 without a ball-valve raises the water level about an inch into the tube. If I let it sit like that it doesn't skim at all. I generally just use the ball-valve to adjust the flow since I have to reduce the flow. The air-injector is wide open and I cleaned it about two weeks ago. It...

    EV-180 issues

    I have an EV-180 that I have been having issues with. It is in-sump with a mag-12 and a ball-valve. I have had it in there for almost 2 months now. Not sure if anybody has a lot of experience with these or not but I can barely get to skim. Basically, I have talked to them on the phone and...

    Krish's New 75 gal "Thing-a-ma-bob"

    Quick question: Didn't want to take the hours to read thru the entire thread:p but I noticed you have an Aqua-C protein skimmer? How do you like it? I have one on my 125 and I have the hardest time with it. If I do anything to the tank it immediately stops skimming. Let alone, on the odd...

    600 Gallon Mixed Reef: Looking for input

    I am guessing he is probably really busy with the tank now. Though I definitely want to see pics after this much time.

    Clean-up Crew for 37g

    While it may cost you more you might be better off just buying them individually. Unless you find a really good package or know other people that you can split them with they tend not to be the way to go.

    A difficult pairing :D

    Thats awesome! How exactly did you go about getting them to share an anenome let alone tolerate each other?

    Clean-up Crew for 37g

    I would say there are to many Astrae snail and hermit crab and I would only suggest one emerald crab. Unless you severly overfeed you tank a good portion of those guys will die. A lot of online vendors are bad about overstocking inverts like that. It sucks, because they are cheaper to buy...

    Jumping Clowns

    Doing you mean they don't jump period or don't jump unless stressed? I think there is enough anecdotal evidence to prove that they do indeed jump. I have found one on my carpet before I am I didn't put him there.

    Ocean Treasures Microreefs

    Sounds like a lack of adequate flow to me.

    Best Way to Mix Salt?

    I am probably one of the worst when I do water changings. I know all the ways you are supposed but I am a bit lazy and water changes while usually done weekly are some what sporadic. I fill a bucket with tap water, temperature is adjusted by the finger test, add 5.5 cups of salt (fairly large...

    Calfo Manifold for 180 gallon?

    I don't have any shading problems with mine. As far as outlets go, I would do as you see fit. They should be completely adjustable after you are do so as long as you have enough that is all that matters. One of the biggest issues I think I had was when I was putting my together. I had to put...

    what does this thing to your tank.

    I have an aiptasia right in the middle of my Xenia one time. Never bothered the Xenia but slowly but sure they migrated away from the aiptasia.

    Nice Lfs

    I have an LFS around here but it is for the fat owner to sit on. The place scares me.

    what are the signs of a blenny starving?

    I have a few fish I have for 8 months and rarely see it but they all look nice and fat so I figure they must be fine.

    My new 120 upgrade

    That looks intimidating. Nice though. I wish I would have thought that far ahead when I setup my 125.

    CO2 tank for multiple purposes?

    I have no idea about running it for two different setups, but you can usually rent a small tank for about $5. A good friend of mine rents his from a local restaurant of all places. He paid $5 and has been using it since December and he is just about out. When he goes back he will have to pay...
