    u got a nice brain going there, and the glass is very clean... i'm going to invest in a long scrapper soon, there's some areas in my tank i just can't reach without knocking something over (or just get a bigger tank...)

    im going for it!!! DIY overflow to sump.

    umm i believe reefcentral has a flow calculator for different bulkhead sizes, don't forget about headloss too for your pump too, but another thought, having too big a hole will only allow for upgrades and can function with lower flow, also you need to make sure that there's enough area for the...

    You know your a dedicated reefer when...

    on the same line as passanetti ... when your fish eat better than you do, they get shrimp, fish and seaweed all the time and i think it's the greatest day when i get to eat sushi at todai :)

    How and How much do you like to edit your pictures

    i don't really print photos but that's good to know, i use the nikon d50 i like it, it's maybe a bit short on megapixels compared to the rebel xti and such but it works well enough, i think the dSLR's are worth it cause you can tank pictures of lots of stuff quickly, especially fish which...

    How and How much do you like to edit your pictures

    ya shutter speed isn't the problem, i am tripod with rather long shutter speeds, the one above is specifically 1/2 second for shutter f40 white balance shade, iso 200, i think i misunderstood histogram (after reading the thread) and thought it was just another word for picture preview, my bad...

    How and How much do you like to edit your pictures

    thanks for the advice i read somewhere it was good to underpose a bit, maybe i misread it, i'll try some with overexposing, and ya i have the histogram thing on so i can see them before i bring them to the comp, i think my screen shows the pictures brighter than they really are though because i...

    20 gallon long........

    i think for a non coral tank, 4x39w would cost you more but if you upgrade it will be worth it, u might consider a retrokit that's only 2x39w or 2x24 if you are going to keep it FO for a while, then adding another retrokit later, whichever length you decide, with the 24" it will not be as good...

    20 gallon long........

    they make 30" 2x65 watt pc's, and for t-5 u'll either have to go for a 24" set up or a 36" set up, or you just got for a mh and it'll be dimmer at the ends
