    New 12"x12"x12" sps cube!!

    Exactly. I'm just going to try and keep everything as stable as I can, but its a rough start, I think something went 'weird' yesterday and its stressing out my ponape and stylo. I think it could have been a zoa polyp that I ripped in half by accident. I'm running carbon now, and the stylo...

    Where to find bags for shipping livestock?

    big5/sports stores, they're probably on sale right now because the winter sport season is ending.

    Where to find bags for shipping livestock?

    I think Dores at blue sierra will sell you a couple.

    Harmful effects of turning on and off the skimmer?

    :) yup, my tank isnt huge, or else it probably wouldn't be beside my head. I've had a lot of people telling me that I don't need a skimmer, and I definitely believe that everything would be okay without one, but I'm also running an only sps tank... so even if I have the skimmer on for maybe...

    Harmful effects of turning on and off the skimmer?

    yup... but then... some people go skimmerless and it works for them. oh and also... my tank is 8g.

    Harmful effects of turning on and off the skimmer?

    I've done that before, but its not that part which I think is noisy, its just the bubble coming up to the top.. I'm a fairly light sleeper and it would be annoying trying to get use to listening to that while falling asleep... its literally less than a foot away from my head...

    Has anyone though of ever gluing down a 'sand layer'?

    okay i went and looked at your thread and thats what my bottom looks like.. except i recently took a coraline scraper and scraped everything off the front bottom of my tank so it looks perfectly clean.... like my front wall... hahah makes me feel a little better that i'm not going crazy. so...

    Has anyone though of ever gluing down a 'sand layer'?

    so your bottom stays crystal clean? do you not scrub the sides of your tank with a magfloat or something either?

    Harmful effects of turning on and off the skimmer?

    oh sorry, i forgot to specify.... I have an aquac HOB skimmer that has its own body of water as soon as the skimmer pump gets shut off. the heater I aws refering to would sit inside the aquac remora heating that body of water. the drop in temperature would be the water thats inside the remora...

    Question regarding LED lights

    Cool little tank! I personally would just go buy a par38 bulb. You could try and build your own little array of LED's but hitting up Vetco for LED's will run you 8$ per LED and you're still going to need a power supply and a fixture. Par38: 70-80$ DIY: 5, 3w LED's from vetco(8ea): 40$ 5...

    Harmful effects of turning on and off the skimmer?

    So I've been running my skimmer on and off for the past 9 months... I run the skimmer during the day and turn it off at night. The reason is because my tank is right beside my head when I sleep and aquac's arent very quiet. My main concern is that with 12 hours off, the water temperature in...

    Has anyone though of ever gluing down a 'sand layer'?

    Oh interesting, my last post was quite unclear, I meant, would the bottom of one of these epoxy resin beds stay algae (the green kind) free for longer than a BB. My current settup is BB and i get a fairly thick layer of green algae on the bottom every 2 weeks ish that I have to scrape off...

    Has anyone though of ever gluing down a 'sand layer'?

    oh thats interesting, so would a cutting board bottom be cleaner from algae than BB?
  18. Cwazy Clown

    Has anyone though of ever gluing down a 'sand layer'?

    So I was thinking.... Bare bottom looks a bit off, especially once the algae takes over, and having a sand bed can cause issues later on... has anyone thought of putting down a layer of glue/epoxy and gluing down just enough sand to give the bottom texture and the look of sand, without having...

    Smallest Reef on RF Thread! 0.5gallon Zoa Tank!

    I was actually worrying about that for a while, but hopefully it wont do too much damage. I just ordered a white 10k, and a royal blue LED and am waiting on them to ship over here.
