    Nanostreams and MH Bulbs

    I am purchasing a new 60 gallon cube, and I think my Seio 1100's will be too big for it. Anyone have experience with Tunze nanostreams? Thoughts on pricing? Am I better off with a smaller Hydor Koralia? Also, I am getting my first MH setup (250w SE). I am thinking of purchasing a Blueline 10K...

    Return Pumps

    I am currently using a Little Giant 3MDQSC as a return pump from my sump. As I will be changing stands soon, I don't think I will have room for an external pump anymore, requiring me to use an internal pump. Do underwater pumps really add that much heat to the tank? Is there a significant...

    New Current USA 34G Solana Nano Aquarium

    That looks good! Theoretically, I could buy a different stand and put this tank on it right? You don't have to use the Solana stand along with it... Thanks

    Anyone have a tank for sale?

    I also posted this in the classified section...but wanted to check here as well: I am going to be downsizing my 100 gallon tank due to a move. I am looking for a 40-75 gallon tank to replace it, preferably with some SPS equipment (calcium reactor, halides etc.) Anyone have a setup in decent...

    New Current USA 34G Solana Nano Aquarium

    Solana tanks Do you guys have any stands in stock that would fit this tank, but provide for some more storage room under the tank? Can you plumb these things to a sump?

    Cleaning magnets

    I have been using a mag-float (acrylic one) on my 100 gallon tank. It just doesn't seem to have the power to scrape off the really tough stuff. Does anyone own one of the more expensive magnets like a magnavore or the hammerhead magnets? Are they worth the higher cost? :confused:

    Atlantic Blue Tangs

    Thanks for all the advice. I am having my LFS look for a juvenile for me. I have kept tangs in the past and am familier with the care. I will post a pic when he comes in Thanks!

    Atlantic Blue Tangs

    Does anyone have experience with an Atlantic Blue Tang? I saw one online and they look really great, but I have never seen one in person. The price seems right, I think I would like to try one out! Thanks, Dan

    ASM G3 Gate valve mod

    Thanks! I will give that a try...perhaps I just need to bite the bullet and get the kit for the gate valve.

    ASM G3 Gate valve mod

    Does anyone know the size of the parts needed to construct my own ASM gate valve mod? Anyone have instructions to do this? I figure I can beat the $40 price for the pieces that I found online. Thanks, Dan

    water polishing block

    My ADHI refugium has a foam "polishing" block that the overflow water from the refugium runs through. It does a good job of masking the trickling sound of the falling water. This is a very coarse and dense block, similar to the tube filter on my ASM skimmer. Would it be more beneficial for me...

    Where do I buy eggcrate

    Where can I purchase eggcrate? (In Seattle) Is it called something else at Hardware stores? Does Home Depot have it? Thanks! Dan

    Refugium Substrate

    Bump! Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

    Refugium Substrate

    You had the same refugium setup and substrate? Is it the fuge that is causing the high nitrates? What did you do?

    Refugium Substrate

    I have a new ADHI refugium that has been running for four months, with gracilaris and chaeto, 3 inches of a sand mixture (part fine part medium coarse), three inches of miracle mud, and topped off with .5 inches of GARF grundge that was added on a whim. On top of this I have about 3-4lbs of live...

    Corals aren't spreading/growing

    Corals I am in the same boat man... I have had a frogspawn for over a year that has never grown another head. My devil's hand has not grown an inch, and my zoas grow about one new one every three months. My brain has gotten fatter though, and xenia just started spreading after three months...

    ASM Skimmer setup

    Got it working last night! The pump wasn't fully seated in the intake pipe I think. It is working great!

    ASM Skimmer setup

    Do you mean the larger tube with the foam piece, or the small air inlet tube that goes to the pump? I will check both

    ASM Skimmer setup

    I just bought an ASM G-3 yesterday (Thanks Carl!) I got it plugged in, and as soon as the pump starts running, water starts bubbling over the top and rapidly filling the collection cup. I have tried adjusting the foam tube up and down, but nothing happens. Anyone had this issue? The sedra pump...

    Heat Sensors

    My fan on my sump is a standard clip-on house fan, but does a great job of cooling the tank on hot days! I don't know what wattage the icecap fans are if that's what you mean
