Try not to mix Leathers with Stony Corals in that size tank. They will compete in chemical warefare and it might lead to a mess... Leathers with Mushrooms and Zoas will work. or Stonies (LPS, SPS) with Mushrooms and Zoas will work. One or the other.

Tagging along to see the progress. So far it looks good...

What kind of lighting is on the tank currently? How about flow?

Gramma's and Psudochromis tend to hide in the caves. The will come out to feed, and in the case of most Psudo's they will defend their hole. I believe Grammas will hide upside down in the cave. If you want an open water swimmer in that size tank I'd look at some of the Clowns. You can get nice...

The Tech Tanks and the Ultimate series both have Starphire front panels. I don't know if I'd do another open top tank. I had to put a screen on top of it to keep my fish from jumping.

Wow! Very nice!

I just bring my tank to the LFS and let them do the change...

Look at Reef Central in the Do it yourself forum. All you really need is a old fishtank (a 10 gallon would fit in your stand), or a rubbermaid container with a clip-on light. You could do dividers or baffles in it.

I don't feed my star, but I do have a 30 gallon fuge on my tank. I second the fuge suggestion. I would not do a tank without one.

I disagree with the above statement about the star. I have about 12 LBS of sand in a 70 gallon tank (Just enough to leave bare spots of glass in some spots. At most a dusting in others). I got my Sand Sifting Sea Star when my tank was 1 month old. He's doing just fine...

No problem! Have you tested for phosphate? If it is high from using tap water or feeding too much that will leat to algae problems...

Charlie/Brent/Austin at Tropiquarium and Will at Aquatic Obsessions all get two thumbs up.

Tim- You can add Nas Snails or a Sand Sifting Star for your sandbed. Anytime you want to come to Jersey I'll give you some rocks with green, orange, and Fire and Ice Zoas on them. Just PM me so I can give you my number. Mike

You are shopping at the wrong stores. My LFS ordered me a Solaris at internet prices; I got it in a week. A refugium I wanted, at internet prices, got it in 3 days...

Dave K- Get to know the guys at the LFS, and buy from them over 10 years, and they will order anything you want. Mine went so far as to match the internet's prices.

Alot of companies charge a restocking fee. It's common in computers and electronics. Buyer beware. I got burnt by one of the better vendors and companies online in what I believed was a defective part. Now both the company and vendor do not return my calls. This is why I'd rather deal with...

They suggest every 3 months for phosphate substrate.

Nice buy Danny. Will's got some nice Acans in.

I e-mailed and called for 3 months. Didn't hear a peep...

Yep. One of the reasons I chose Tunze this time around is because of their customer service. I have 6101 on a single controller as well and I love it. The Tunze 9010 is not built as big or solid as the Euro Reef (it's all thin plastic), but it's been skimming from day 1 with no flooding. Also...
