    2x175w

    I just scored 2x175w retro set up. I already had 8x54w t5 right now, there seems to be enough room is this too much light, or will it make things grow better? I don't want to bleach any thing and its gonna be a real tight fit. OOPS Its a 75g 48" glass that probably helps.

    too much flow?

    I use two on timers they go on and off about every hour and a half with both on for like 10 minutes between and bot off for 15 min in the morning and at night the k4 isn't grounded so you can get timers at big lots for like $3.50 then you can utilize both pumps find the timers that turn on and...

    Wireless Reef tank

    Yeah seems like I could spend my time (and money) on something more productive, and just hide every thing for now, wait till I'm rich and let some one else worry about this. This hobby is expensive enough. I guess I could just go into the wall that hides everything. thanks for following, not...

    Which light should I get?

    I have the current 8x54 and it is a great light on my 75g and I have seen successful 125g tanks with those lights, but if you are on a budget you should check out other options, and definitely shop around, have you checked Equipment. If I had to buy lights again I would probably go with a M.H t5...

    RO/DI solution? anyone?

    I moved down to CA and everyone uses tap water I think they are crazy, they say it is safe but when I tested it I found over 5.0 and nitrates around 20 I told both stores they were crazy and haven't been back since. I don't support those kinds of stores, they only want to make a buck, I have...

    Moving lrg tank-need suggestions

    I hate moving, Buckets, buckets, more buckets and I need a bigger bucket or something like a bucket. I would take as much water as you can, I moved down to Ca from Wa and didn't lose a single specimen, got lucky. Ask your L.F.S for a foam box and bags and rubber bands. I used a new 55g trash can...

    Wireless Reef tank

    I was thinking would it be possible to make a smaller 15ish gallon, "Full blown L.P.S or S.P.S tank?" I was wondering if any one has done this. I am thinking a new D.I.Y project, maybe, build 2 of every thing included in hardware, pump and lights for easy maintenance. Anyone ever see anything...

My puffer/trigger/butterfly tank had mojos at first but they seemed to vanish when the fish showed up, I didn't know what they were and was upset that my fish ate...

What are you using for lighting. Phosphates come from many things like bad unfiltered water due to agriculture run off, freeze...

    Phosphate test read 1.0 mg/l ok or bad?

    Decent sized water changes or chemical method. Many Freeze Dried foods contain phos. Not to dis on freeze dried foods I use many, but I always read the back labels some times you are the one adding the phos and dont even know it, also you could check levels of phos in the water before you add...
