Hi all, My 2.5 month old 220 is running well, went through a brief diatom bloom and bacterial bloom, now it’s been sitting pretty for a couple weeks with coralline algae starting to grow. So here’s my question, it’s still fairly young tank so I’m going to let it "rest" for a couple months with...

I got my new sump and rodi machine set up this weekend. I want to order some of the macro algaes for the sump. I was wondering what are the best ones? Which are the easiest to care for? I would like some that i can feed to my tangs. Also, i just started the 9 weeks of my tank being fishless to...

Hi, I have huge amounts of Caulerpa (jagged flat blade variety) in my tank and I would prefer to not have it just go to waste. Is anyone interested in purchasing any?

As you can see this is my first post on this forum. If this was an audio-video forum, I would be giving a rookie advise on amps or dvd players, but tonight I'm the rookie and I need your help. I will be buying a 92 gallon corner tank to set up a reef tank, The type widely available. My plans...

How should I set up my 55 gallon sump/refuge

Well, I've avoided coming out here as of late. A couple of weeks ago we cleaned out the seahorse tank. I think we stirred up too much and over a few days we lost two of the babies. :cry: Just the other day I got up and found the last baby tail first in the overflow. She was gone already so I...

Alright so I should lay out what we got instead of just harassing people. There's the 75 gallon, about 15g sump. Well, it's not really a sump I guess, just a fuge with a place to put the skimmer. The 75 has about 100 lbs of LR (about...), corner drilled to the under stand fuge. The fuge is...

Because I was asked for I would like to show the members of TRT one ore two of my aquariums. All my friends of the other forum know me and my aquariums already very well. My journey with saltwater tanks started in the spring of 1986 with a 75gal. Fish tank.Topically I have 5 aquariums, three...

I am putting together a 210 FOWLR (just a small amount of LR in the display) and my aquascaping idea is to have caulerpa (asst'd varieties) or sea grasses growing on the bottom of the tank. Would T5's have the punch required to get to the bottom of this tank and support good, solid growth? I...

Does anyone know a cheap easy to assemble way to convert a 10 gallon tank into a refugium? Where i can get the baffles? How big of a return pump do i need? Its for a 55 gallon tank. Matt

:help: Sorry about the stupid question people but Im very new to salt water and need to know if some things are really needed. I have a new 210g Mega flow tank Im putting together and was woundering about a few other pieces that Im not sure about. First this will be a reef tank with 200+ live...

doing water changes on a tank of 100 gallons is pretty easy, my 5 gallon is super simple..... So, i got to thinking, how does one keep up a really big tank (say over 1000 gallons). seems you would have to find a way to do it w/o water changes. unless you lives near a site where you had a...

:)well santa brought my daughter an aquapod 24 for christmas:) ! well after looking it over i thought that the filtration wasn't very adaquite so the planning started. so far what i have done is to drill it out with two one inch bulkhead fittings ,one for the drain and one for the return. i...

I have a 29 gallon BioCube and at the moment have a Black and White Ocellaris Clown and a Neon Pseudochromis. I had added a yellow watchman but I have not seen him for three days now. My LR came from a previous setup where I grew macroalgae, specifically Caulerpua (spelling ?). I thought I...

Hello All, I recently purchased my first ponies. They were sold to me as Kellogii, but I Think they might be Kuda. Well enough about that, 4 were bright yellow when I bought them, but have since changed to a black on they back with a little white/very pale yellow on the undersides. I...

been planning this for a while now and I am about to pick up a 40 gallon column aquarium for use as a seahorse tank. Other than a chiller, and the usual things required for a reeftank, what else do I need? As its 40 gallons, I plan on using a HOB filter. What do I need for lighting? What is a...
