    can anyone answer any of my questions?

    the more important aspect to keep in mind as far as stocking densities is the mass of the fish, not so much just the length. One 10 inch lionfish will produce more waste than 10-1 inch damsels. Keep in mind the amount of beneficial bacteria, if it is a freshly set-up system, keep a close eye on...

    refugium substrate?

    We had a problem with them going sexual at the store I manage, we would come in in the morning and the whole tank would be murkey, so we started keeping the lights on and have not had a problem with them since. Sooo if it aint broke don't fix it.

    refugium substrate?

    If you were to leave the light on 24/7 over the refug. that should help to prevent the caulerpas from going sexual.

    DSB w vs w/o Plenum

    I would recommend " Live Sand Secrets " by Bob Goemans. This publication is put out by Marc Weiss companies. There is a second revised edition, that seems to be a little more thought out, in my openion. I am interested in a discussion on this book. So let me know what you think. Please. Have fun!!!

    Top off units

    I have s 16 gallon aquarium and about another 5 gallons in my sump, it doesn't take much for the salinity to change. I have found that all I need to do is add 1/2 gallon fresh water everyday. I am not sure if a float valve would be sensitive enough to register?? If I am wrong please correct me!!

    bubbles in sand

    The reason I do such large changes is because I have a few soft corals, and want to prevent any build up of waste. I dump the refill water into the sump, so it doesn't stir the main tank.

    bubbles in sand

    I hope that it is not what I think it is, but there are small bubbles forming in the top inch of my sand bed. I have a 16 gallon bow front, with a maximum sand depth of 3 inches in some spots. There are three fish in there, and I do an 8-10 gallon water change once a week. Could this something...
