    Suggestions on lighting suspension kit

    Those are definately great but probably a little overkill (can lift 250lbs). I was going to use pulleys in my original plan but since my light rack weighs about 2lbs I know eyelets will work just fine. What is really cool is using DC actuators for lifting your lights electronically. You can...

    help me decide on lights, please

    T5's really wouldn't be overkill on any 24"h tank. With them in a mix you would probably want to keep your SPS and high light corals higher in the tank. I prefer T5's over MH for price, heat, watts, bulb versatility, etc. Some hate the idea of loosing the shimmer of MH. I agree its nice but...

Plants love it, some top off pools and ponds, some use it for doing laundry, flushing toilets, you could even drink it although it doesn't taste very good - maybe some...

    Water Pressure and Temperature are the two key factors here. You should be getting closer to a 4:1 waste:good water ratio. If you do not have a pressure gauge it would be worth getting. Unfortunatley if you pressure is low like mine (40psi) then you really should look into a RO booster pump...

    HOB filter modification to hold micro algae

    What little sand you can fit into it will not do any good. I would just go the Chaeto route. As for the HOB filter mod. Check this RC thread out. http://reefcentral.com/forums/showt...t=how+to+DIY+an As for using spare ABS to make a HOB fuge. If you are adding a separete fuge it would really...
