I want to try out another bulb combo and before I buy a new one I rather try it out first. Anyone around Union, NJ 07083 that can lend me this bulb to try out? I can return it if need be. Thanks
Rather than me going out and buying a whole bag of sand I figured I would try here first. Let me know if you have any leftover you will not be using. Thanks!
Anyone local have a return pump that does 400-500 GPH? I have a Quiet One 2200 which is too much and a Quiet One 1200 which is too little. Also a Mag 2 and im willing to trade any of these or buy one.
Thanks

I purchased a brand new reefkeeper 2 with ph probe and cannot calibrate it. I tried this three times. I dont know if im doing something wrong or if the ph probe is just bad. Before I send it back I want to try and see if it works properly on someone elses aquacontroller or ph monitor. I live in...
I am building a 25G rimless tank. Being the first time plumbing a tank I have no idea how to plan this out.
I bought a quiet one 2200 internal pump rated at 581 gph. Since most people would think this is a lot for a sump I wanna T off the drain and have another pipe with a ball valve going to...

I currently have a 70W sunpod over my 12G aqupod. The bulb is a stock 14k bulb but its nearing the time to by a new bulb.
Im thinking of trying out a 20k bulb but I understand that with a 20k you get less growth so im concerned my two birdsnest may die. Should I be concerned?
Also, what bulbs...
My false perc seems to be losing his orange and getting really dark. On top of that his belly seems to be a little big and now his mouth is always open. Anyone know what can be wrong? I want to try to fix this asap. Thanks
So im trying to think of what fish i want to add to my 12g aquapod when the time comes but i thought i would start this thread to give everyone an idea of what they can get. I want a fish with the most personality or if its somewhat beneficial. Right now i have a clownfish in the tank.
