    Cleaning powerheads

    I cleaned my pair of K1s a few weeks ago. They had some GHA on them and were generally just caked all over. They hardly put out any flow. Took em apart and used a toothbrush to clean them up

    My 1st Saltwater tank--New Setup

    Also, be very patient in this hobby. Only bad things happen quickly. I bought my first tank which was already established with for 1 year with a few corals in it about 2 months ago and I still have not added any livestock but 2 fish and some extra clean up crew. I'm just now getting to the...

    My 1st Saltwater tank--New Setup

    I'd say there is a wide spectrum of rock "quantities" because there is a wide spectrum in rock QUALITY. The difference between a big square block of barely-porous base rock and something that is branching with great pores is huge, imo.

    Aquapod 24 Lighting

    Fayzane, I chose to use a different brand of LEDs than the Cree or Luxeon everyone else uses. When most people run them at 30-40% power anyways I don't see the need to spend 3x the price to get a 20% improvement in performance. A relatively new player is StevesLEDs.com. This guy is an...

    HELP! Cracking tank

    Petco is doing their dollar per gallon deal until Sunday. You could pick up some 40 breeders or 55 standards for a decent price to hold livestock

    400w Halide over a biocube? advice please

    it's hard to beat fishneedit for the price. just replace the bulb with whatever you prefer when it's time. I've heard their bulbs run pretty warm compared to most 14k or 20k (speaking strictly on color temp, not heat)

    cleaners and the aquarium

    Shampoo or chemical cleaning? I don't shampooing is a risk at all. I also don't think chemical cleaning does a damn thing for your carpet =)

    You guys would NOT believe the deal i got, need help on setup as well!

    my 1st gen sapphire skimmer doesn't put any bubbles into the display of my BC29

    Hermit attacking Turbo

    After nearly 10 days of the shell missing completely my hermit just showed up in his new digs. How big do hermits get? This is a pretty good sized shell And yeah, I only have 2 snails left from the half dozen I put in the tank.

    FlashChat for VB is pretty simple and effective. I set it up on a forum before.

    omg...check this little product out!!

    Sounds like those 10 pound reservoirs are just for holding water temporarily. You need an additional reservoir to pump into and out of those reservoirs. So I assume you can have like a 30g drum full of sw and a pump to deliver it into the metering reservoir, then teh same for waste water The...

    Sustainable aquarium keeping?

    Actually I think never being born would be preferred :D I feel that most of the effort to being "green" is devoted to making sure everyone else knows how green you are. I remember hearing or reading about the efficiency of forests and how after a certain point they are no longer beneficial to...
