    Building hollow rock

    Nice start, should turn out pretty nice for you. I tried making agrocrete stuff awhile back and didn't like how it turned out, this idea looks a lot better.

    New LEDs

    I've been emailing the wholesaler to see what the prices would be for these units, $185 plus $75 shipping and you have to pay any transaction fees their bank and your bank have for an overseas purchase (currency exchange fees and such). They don't tell you what these fees will be either, so...

    Is city water bad for my reef?

    Anybody know about the water in Seattle? Specifically Montlake. I recently moved form Bellingham where I used tap water with no issues and now am skeptical to try the city water. In the mean time i'm using store bought water and it seems to be causing an algae break out. Any recommendations...

    New LEDs

    that's what i'm saying, they are exactly the same. SWC along with other companies purchase these fixtures and then slap their own logos on them. What i'm getting at is that they are massed produced Chinese made lights and i'm unsure/curious of the quality and longevity of the fixtures.

    20 Gallon Mixed Reef

    they look like a decent fixture so far. I'm interested to see how coral growth is under these lights, particularly sps. You could be the fist to document this, i spent hours looking around and couldn't find anything.

    New LEDs

    Russter, do you know how large of an area the SWC fixture will light? Not a whole lot of information on the TB Aquatics site.

    wanting to upgrade to an led fixture, any recommendations?

    I'm currently running a 48w t5 fixture on my tank but would like to upgrade to an led fixture. It's about time for new bulbs so why not, right. I've been doing a lot of reading up on these things but am unsure on what to go with. I've looked into doing a diy but i'm not the greatest with...

    How do you top off?

    I'm using a ATO setup on a timer and pumped with a toms aqualifter for 7 minutes a day. I found that this is about how much evaporation I have on average per day. So far so good and it's been like this for about 5 months. I use to do manual top offs but highly recommend setting up some kind...

    how should I go about moving my tank

    Thanks for the responses. After a lot of reading this is what I have come up with, let me know what you think. I will get a pretty decent sized cooler so that I can keep enough water in it to cover live rock and have some extra if needed during the move. I will put all my livestock in bags...

    how should I go about moving my tank

    I'm moving in a couple weeks and am a little unsure on how to go about it. I have moved my tank before but that was only 10-15 minutes down the road. This time it will be an hour and a half move. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. My tank is a ten gallon with a ten gallon sump, mostly...

    J-Ranko's 15 Gallon Rimless Nano

    I've been looking in from time to time on your nano-reef thread, nice to see some of the amazing nano's from that site are local. Keep up the good work.

    Question about fragging leathers

    slice it, rinse it, put it in your tank. Very easy to do. In a week or so it should attach itself to something, or you could always glue them.
