    coral beauty problems

    Thanks for the help dude, i learned alot. I froze the fish as i thought it would be a humane way to kill the fish (i hope). As for the tetracycline treatment i mixed up a 20litre bucket of saltwater the day before and airated it for a couple of hours while it heated to the same temperature of...

    tank heating

    Hey guys i would like to know how i should go about heating my 250gal/1200litre reef tank. I was thinking of using a Tunze 'Temperature Controller Set °Celsius (7028/3)' with two Jager heaters but it appears that the Tunze temp controller can only run a single heater, is this true or can it...

    fish swap

    they are handy but dont help to make a conclusion, i have already read the reefkeeping.com anthias articles and they basically all point to the fact that anthias are a pain in the ass to keep. i know they are difficult but what REALLY confuses the crap out of me is when i look at a 'tank o the...

    fish swap

    Thanks guys, sounds good coz im putting in alot of live rock (although swimming space is also a big issue so i wont overdo it) and my tank will slowly mature and livestock added over about a year or so.

    My reef creation...

    hey sorry for the late reply but i'm not sure what you mean... what i want to do is have the skimmer IN the sump and being fed from an overflow pipe. Will this work with a MRC-2? The water can be pre-filtered in the overflow box.

    My reef creation...

    Well, both overflows together make up the right volume for the skimmer but i don't want to dedicate both. That would be a pain in the ass. Do you think i should just go with my original plan: Deltec AP-701. This skimmer uses the same water per hour as a single one of my overflows.

    >And can i run it from one of my overflows (roughly 2000 - 3000litres per hour)?< with a pre-filter of course!
