looks like we are going to pick up a 50mm nikon macro lens with auto focus. maybe pick up the 105mm Nikon a little later after i get my calcium reator and vortech :)

i doubt she'll use the lens just for the tank. I was looking at the one that Melev builds, I have to see if he still makes them.

looking at buying a Macro lens for my wifes Nikon D7000 and a top down Photo box. Anyone have suggestions? Sounds like from the reading i have done that it should be above 100mm. thanks in advance.

ditto, i used the same pump on my 220 with the sump next to the stand and plenty of flow to spare for other things. also used it in my old basement to pump my 120 that was on the first floor also no problems

you check level by putting your level on the top of the tank = tank is level - stand is level

Did a 30 gal water change the other day to try and drop the Nitrates but it did not seem to make a dent. checked the levels today and the amonnia has dropped to .25ppm and nitrites are between 2 ppm and 5 ppm. Nitrates are up around 40ppm. I'm not sure if my water has nitrates in it or there was...

and my reason for going back to the 120g

do you put any flow through your rockwork piping besides to vacuum? Sounds like that could be a big problem your having. Even though you are sucking the junk out, does the water movement displace some of the nasty stuff to the water column? Could be a reason you cant seem to get the upper hand...

Jim I spent the last 2 nights reading your whole thread since I was confused where the brown crud came from and the intial crash. Sorry about the whole thing, I am glad I do have a generator to run the tank and a tv for that very reason. Have you thought about using a uv while fallow? might...

you could try a jar with an opening small enough to keep the fish out and let the shrimp in. Kinda like Melev's Mandarin Diner http://melevsreef.com/mandarin_diner.html

its only a matter of time.... everyone always goes bigger

Its working out nicley so far. today I tossed in a cube of prime reef and some flake food to give the cycle a kick. I added 3/4 bottle of bio spira I had from the nano but all the rock I put in was dried for 1.5yrs so little that will really do. Its a waiting game at this point Sent from my...
