    Cloudy Water!

    Your pump get really HOT???? I hope your pump didn't start to melt down. I had a friend that had that happen and it killed his tank. He also had a heater blow up and kill everything so He stopped trying to do a saltwater tank. Not sure about air causing a bacteria bloom. Hope you find the cause...

    Going to build a grow out tank

    MAN I'll have to think about that....It's only a 20 gal tall tank. A lot of over kill I think. Power compacts would probly be good.

    Going to build a grow out tank

    I don't think I want to go LED....it seems when I get frags from LED lit tanks the colors great under LEDS but then under T5's or MH they look faded and have to color up under the different lighting.

    Going to build a grow out tank

    I went to the frag swap and got a bunch of zoas and did a dip and acclimated them over an hour and put them in the tank. I know I should QT them but they were all from 2 very reliable reefers I have bought from several times. Well today the smaller frags are gone off there plugs and I can't find...

    How many snails should I get?

    The dead snails supply shells for growing hermits too. I think my blue leg hermits are actively killing snails for shell though. I just added 100 blue legs and they were really small and are growing quick and now I see my snails moving faster and realize theres a hermit in the shell.......sucks...

    Do I really need an overflow?

    Contact OBD they can build you one. Or at lest give you good advice on a quiet one. I have had some that were really loud and they can usually be modded to quiet them down.

    Do I really need an overflow?

    One problem with home made setups is the power goes out and they keep siphoning till they are out of the water. So the sump has to be big enough to hold the extra water. Then when the power comes back on the over flow needs to start siphoning again by itself. If you just have some kinda pipe in...

    Summer is here, lets talk heat control

    My tank always runs at 78degrees all year long without a heater and t5 lighting.....I keep my lights about 2" off the water. I had some zenia grow all over the place and started trying to remove them with no avail. I then got some snails that were climbing out of the tank and lowered my light...
