Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I knew there are a few threads on this but didn't want to hi-jack someones thread. My fixture has built in controllers 1st controller is for bulbs 1 and 3, 2nd is 2 and 4. I placed the blue plus at positions 1 and 4, 14k at 2nd and purple plus at 3rd. The tank really pops like this. But I wanted...
This light has a terrible design. In order to change the bulbs you have to remove the legs to and then two other screws, one on each side. The glass cover should drop down on a hinge. I did all this and the cover won't move. I scratched the crap out of it trying to pry it open. This unit is junk...
Today I decided to make a few small changes to my tank. First I moved the dual pumps from the back glass left and right to the sides. So they now it flows the length in stead of width of the tank. Next change was I put the legs on my light fixture and place it on top of the canopy. I did this...
Well, I told myself no more clown fish. While at a LFS I saw what they labelled Tomato Clowns but they were different. Could be a Fire or Cinnamon clown. Similar to this pic only difference is the pectoral fins are also dark colored. Now I am considering get one or two.
What is everyone's...

Been doing some on-line research on my yellow scroll coral. What I can't figure out is this an SPS or LPS?
The articles I read don't make this very clear. I just want to figure out position, lihghting and if I am missing any supplements.
Thanks
Edit: Also water flow.
The search for a new skimmer has begun. I am limited on space under the cabinet and in the sump. I will be asking about other skimmers as well. If there any I should stay away from let me know. I am looking for an in-sump skimmer.
Is anyone familiar with this skimmer, Vortex 1002? Is it any...
I saw this skimmer for sale on another forum and was wondering on opinions. It comes with 2 pumps, one is for water re-circulation.
I currently have the Aqua Medic Multi TurboFlotor which is HOB but was told can be used in-sump by manufacturer.
Here is a pic of the one I was going to Buy...

I decided to take a rock out with Cyano and hair algae from my DT. The feather duster never closed up and fell out of its tube. I touched the crown but it did nothing. Is this guy dead or alive?
Thanks

Well, was sucking up some cyano with a turkey baster today. I had my hand in the tank, no shoes on just socks and my arm touched the outside of the light fixture and I got a small shock. At first thought nothing of it and did it again but this time hit my elbow. My was arm numb from the elbow to...
One of my son's turtles got sick. Closed eyes and wouldn't eat for 2 weeks. We tried all the on-line remedies before which worked but this time no good. Anyway $125 later my son has to give it an injection every 3 days. They wanted to do blood work but that would have put the bill over $300 and...
Does anyone have an external CD drive that I can borrow for a few days. I have a notebook in which I need to re-install Windows and there is no CD drive on it.
Thanks
