    I need a plan

    Hi Ed...I have been in exactly the same spot for several months now....I have a 135 Oceanic Reef that's been up since 2002. About a year or so ago, I added some new Fiji live rock in order to "freshen up" my existing reef. I placed them in a few spots around the tank...I apparently didn't notice...

    Black Ich

    Hi Jon...If the tang is eating...just soak its favorite foods in Selcon for a few minutes before feeding. Also, gradually lowering the salinity and/or raising the tank's temerature will help. I would do this only if the tang shows no improvement after several days or if the parasite attacks...

    How hot did your tank get in this weather?

    My 135 runs between 76.5 and 79 degrees...No chiller...AC set at 72-74 degrees with two 4-inch fans blowing diagonally back to front above the tank and under the MH's (3x 150 and 2x 70). Also use a 9-inch fan blowing across the sump in the stand as needeed during very hot days. Dom

    Chip in glass!!!!

    Hi 9 I agree with Brian and Dave that you MIGHT be OK and that tank should be placed outside, filled and watched for a while...the longer the better.

    Opinions on a new return pump

    Hi Bob The Eheim pumps are fantastic and well worth the money.....Very Reliable...Very Quiet...Easy to maintain. I ran a 75 gallon Reef with an Eheim 1260 from 1992 to 2000 when I broke it down, with no problems. Well worth the money!!!! Just be sure to keep debris away from it by mechanically...
