    actinic lights

    If you are looking to add actinic lighting I would recomend a VHO setup. The colors these bulbs produce is outstanding. I use 10K MH supplemented with VHO and the look is fantastic the VHO's really make the colors pop. Here is a link to the bulbs I use. They also have a built in reflector...

    Protein Skimmer

    The skimmer you have is coralife super skimmer that red knob that you see is how you adjust the water level in the skimmer. They can be a real pain to adjust. If you feel adventurous you can remove the whole output assembly and replace it with new pvc and a gate valve. This will make adjusting...

    Questions about new Circulation Pump

    They have been getting pretty good reviews at RC. Supposedly they have a wider flow pattern than the tunze nano streams and like scytale said not much bigger than a mj1200. At the price I don't think think you can go wrong. Brian

    skimmer help

    Hey Gaby. You'll want to make sure nothing is clogging the venturi. This would be the plastic piece that is connected to the input of the pump with the air line running to it. You might try running a pipe cleaner or something similar through the part that the air line attaches to. Soaking it in...

    Who Has a MR1 Skimmer?

    I would check to make sure that the gate valve is opening all the way. Look through the hole and make sure that it is all the way open. A mag 9.5 should not get close to the level you are saying with the valve all the way open and the skimmer out of the sump. Its possible it is just a bad gate...

    Who Has a MR1 Skimmer?

    What pump are you using to run the skimmer? How deep of water is it sitting in? Is there any way you can get a picture of how it is setup? Brian

    coral reff newb/am i getting ripped off

    Just for reference you shouldn't be paying more than about $550 for the bullet 2 with the pump brand new. The pcx 70 pump should only run you about $150 new. Brian

    RO/DI waste won't shutoff

    Do you have a pressure gauge after your prefilters? I have had this problem in the past and it was caused by low incoming water pressure. It was always caused by a .5 micron carbon filter clogging prematurely. Since I replaced it with a 5 micron I have not had that problem. It could also be your...

    Heater ???

    I would go with a ranco controller with a titanium heating element. I just picked up a ranco from patriot supply on ebay (unwired) for $46 with shipping. The extension cord was $10 to wire it. If you get a cord with the led in it you will know when the heating element is on. The heating element...
