    looking at sps

    I think a great first SPS is either a montipora or a milleopora. Both are pretty hardy.

    New setup thread

    looks great Tom. The actinics give it a nice color. Everything looks really happy and clean. Incidentally, what lights are you running? Mat

    golden angel experience...

    I believe they are like most pygmy angels. Typically do not nip at corals but definitely have that potential. It is very much determined by their personality. If they nip, it tends to be things with polyps (leathers, green-star-polyps, etc) or sometimes clams. They are unlikely to go after...

    Mag 12 or 18, Opinions

    If you don't really care about the extra flow provided by the return pump, and your bulkheads are 1inch x2, then I would go with the Mag 12. It will provide a nice supplemental flow to the tank, will use less electricity, likely be less costly up front, be less noisy and not stress the...

    Rose bubble anemone care

    wow, bummer pics. My first anenome died as well, though it was a much more gradual thing. Since they are kinda hard to keep, I always feel bad when one dies and think, especially for BTAs that it is nice to be able to acquire split specimen from another reefer. Best of luck to you in the...

    New Phosphate Remover from Warner Marine

    That is much appreciated Ed. I actually just got a pm from jon about getting some to try. Sounds like a great product. I will let you know about the 22nd. If it works out you should come by, check out the tank again and maybe pick up a frag or two. I have a few things that are big enough to...

    New Phosphate Remover from Warner Marine

    Ed, Do you have any idea as to whether it can be used in a reactor like a phosban reactor? I know it does not have to be used that way, but could it, or will there be problems with it crushing? Also, I have been reading about the manufacturer offering a sample. After researching about this...

    pump preferences for 150g

    also, is it going to be able to be plumbed externally? If that is the case then blueline, iwaki, little giant and sequence are good choices with reasonable efficience, good reliability and decent price. If you have to run it submerged then your options are fewer. The Mag Drive series are...

    whats product is recommended for dosing alkalinity

    your water will get cloudy after you dose. Basically the calcium will fall out of solution forming a solid. Mat

    Adding Kalkwasser- how to?

    Dosing Kalk is an easy way to keep your calcium levels up. You can replace or supplement your top off water with kalk saturated water. You basically add several tablespoons of kalk or pickling lime (same thing) to a bottle like a 2liter bottle, add RO water, shake and let it settle. You can...
