    300 Gallon upgrade

    Haven't done anything to the tank. My schedule is getting out of hand. Kids are getting bigger and now I have all these activities I have to take them too. Karate classes, Gymnastics, Baseball. Soon cheerleading for my daughter. Its getting out of control. I can see why some people need to get...

    My 280g build....

    Hey Steve Is there a reason why you have a gate valve on one of you overflow? I thought that was frowned upon in the reef hobby? Another question. Wouldn't it have been better to seed the rocks in a small tub other than in your tank? You will now have to change more water than if you did it...

    Love the Achilles Tang. I'm guessing that you have a net on your tank for jumpers?

    Nate's Big 90 Upgrade!

    If you plan on setting up the tank next week, I would at least place the tank in the spot where you want, fill it up with rodi and mix the salt and water in the tank with a heater. No rocks and no sand. The water should be mixed thoroughly by next week with the correct salinity. At this point...

    Here's my Big Office System

    Wow, sorry for the loss. I would try to remove that fish from the tank. I would do it quick before the star takes it to a place where it can't be found again or harder to get too.

    Fts

    I remember there being a thread on FTS. Was this lost in the crash? If, so, lets start one up. I'm tired of going through the "tale of the tank" thousands of posts just to see Full Tank Shots. My tank is not ready, so I can't participate yet. Please take the time and post at least one up. Even...

    How tall of a canopy?

    What if you build a canopy with an open top and put the netting on top of the canopy. This way, you can make the canopy as low as you want. Does this make sense? The open top also helps from trapping heat in the canopy.

    300 Gallon upgrade

    Thats a pretty good idea. Glad you like the canopy. Yeah, all I do is slide the led's over when I want add anything in the tank. The rocks that I have are huge. So in this case, I have to remove the canopy. This will only happen once, unless you make a stupid mistake and shim the tank wrong...

    My 280g build....

    Wow! First time seeing and hearing about the Pacific Sun Pandora Hyperion R2. That thing is nice. Have you considered the Orphek? I'm really not to happy with my AI's as I can only raised them about 6 inches from the water. Money is tight for me right now. But if I could afford it, I would get...

    Socks and Skimmers

    I had mesh socks and went back to felt. The problem that I was having with the mesh was that, it always floated to the top. I had to put something heavy in it to keep it down. They also tend to rip easily for me. But I do miss the easy cleaning. Question for the people that clean theirs in...
