    Heaters???

    Didn't want to hi-jack Old Salty's thread. But do we really need heaters for our tanks? Most post speak about the tank getting to hot in the summer and installing a chiller or other methods to bring the temp down. Wouldn't the pumps and house temp be enough to keep the tank at a fair temp? I...

    Remove Bubble algae ?

    I have bubble algae growing on the the bottom of my overflow and not sure how to remove it. I was think turning off all pumps and use a plastic razor blade sliding down and a net underneath to catch the algae. Will that work or is there a better way?

    Skimmer pump upgrade ?

    I never felt my skimmers were perfroming well; one is a Berlin classic and the other is Aqautic Life Systems. Red Sea claims that a 500pgh pump is fine for the Berlin so I hooked up a mag5.
