I THINK all modern 55 gal tanks are made with tempered glass on all sides, just incase you plan on drilling holes, it wont work.

It looks like your going to end up with ATI. 1 special to 1 blue will give you a whiteish look, with a good amount of pop even tho its on the bright and white side. 2 of each of these will give the best par. On the other hand if you perfer the blue look, 2 blues to 1 special is about right...

If you feel your pump is not doing its job due to high head presure,raise the sump in the basement cose to the cieling. Build a stand from cheap 2x3s or old furniture to sit it on to gain height.

I see what you two are saying about presure. In my mind there is no "head" presure in a closed loop because there is water all around it with equalized presure in every direction. So the Koralia type pump is only passing water from one area to another not forcing it to go against gravity...

I was thinking a Koralia or a Sureflow Maxijet, could be housed in a large pvc fitting then reduced down to a manifold type fitting someomething like this for the intake side and the outflow. http://img.alibaba.com/photo/50413101/Double_Y_fitting.jpg Then T'ed and reduced down to a any...

I could do it for ya if you get stuck, I wont travel to far. Im in the middlesex area or bring the tank to me if its not a monstrosity. I have 38mm 45mm and 60mm holesaws.

Anyone happen to know the NJ department of building laws for adding those temp type looli colums?

Thanks, I went over to underwater world and the new owner said he would try his best to get it for me, nice guy.

Anyone know if this part is sold seperate from the tanks??? Not the pipeing just the black partition part like in the link below. http://www.elmersaquarium.com/images/104megaflow.jpg Thanks!

If you want to just be able to mix and match materials, acrylic and glass in your sump or any other reef projects for that matter... mr. sticky's underwater glue, I've used it many times to put baffles in sumps. I thought I'd use it to keep my pump from moving in my sump with a couple of pea...

While the use of the basement is in my rental agreement my landlord is very nervious and jumpy.

No way to edit a post on this forum? :-X

I was thinking of dropping a 120 gal (48x24) in place of my 55, problem is it sits right in the middle of the room pratically. It is up against a wall but there is really nothing under that wall in the basement supporting it. Im sure there are some here who are doing way worse but I just want...

A bit of over kill on the supporting lumber I could see that stand holding up a truck ;D . Think I would rather attach it to the floor If I was to walk on it and use it as step ladder aswell as a stand, great work on the overal look and stlye. I like it alot. To get an idea on how strong wood...

I think your right its a bit to powerful. Its more for 100+ gal tank.

Hi all, Im kinda old school and have only ever used powerheads for flow. I converted one of them with a sureflow kit recently, turned it on and 3 of my rics went sailing off behind and into my live rock before I could bend over and unplug the thing. I thought all the rics had a footing on...

The acceptible range is between 8 and 11 Dkh. Your just a tiny bit high not wildly off the scale, nothing to worry about.

Oh NP, I was just pointing out how it happens more or less in small bare tank. Well the one way is obvious in smaller tank its alot easier. If you have one thats really picky, start with live brine, then frozen and live mixxed then just frozen. Then you can mix that with different items and...

dude dont lie, that thing is a bong and its filled with crack rock. Turning out fish huh?!?!? :o :P ;D ;)
