If you have live rock whatever water you put it in it will be just as "cycled" as it was in your other tank (minus whatever help your filter and sand was providing). For the most part you could get a rubbermaid tub and put your light over it for now and you'll be fine until you get a new tank in...

Most of mine came from ASW. ;D Most is captive bred/prop'd.

I ran 265w of PC lighting over a 120 when I first started in the hobby. I successfully kept "easy" SPS. Monti, digi, etc. Green & orange easier than purple. It isn't impossible to keep ANY SPS, but to keep nicely colored acros you need more/better light than that. And I'd change bulbs every 5-6...

I think I'll change my signature. What a great line.

Yes, you do need the ocean/sun for growth like that but the part that intrigues me is the water flow capable through the hollows of the structure. That structure provides for better water flow and water flow is the key to coral respiration, which is key to increasing light, which is key to...

My clowns host in my frogspawn. I'd say you've got a good chance of that (or even GSP). Both are easier to care for than an RBTA and neither will wander around your tank (much).

Hey Larry! Good to see you here ;D I have never heard of anyone overdriving NO lights with a 660 before (must have been before my time!). Is this more economical than T5s? I wonder if the T5 wave has eliminated the use of overdriven NO lights. I'm not sure I could stand to look at 6500k...

MikeM also builds a mean hood. I bet it would be cheaper than 150.

Stands and all. That one whitewashed wood stand they had was gorgeous! I was really impressed with the quality of both the tanks and the stands.

Sorry, David... I've never had one so I'm not sure how you'd remove it. Of course if you can see it that well it would seem that chopsticks or some sort of spear would solve your problem. I do know that hitchhikers can crop up months/years after the last rock went into your tank so that part...

Noreaster. We're hoping for a good solid steady, windy rain with maybe a touch of lightening for good measure. That would put a quick end to us needing to duck out early!

Holy crow! That is coming out GREAT. Fantastic job. Can't wait to see it. What meeting were you planning on? They've started the 2010 calendar so now would be a good time to jump in.

I think that, including shipping is a good price. By the time you do it twice (because we I mean you may goof up the first time) it will cost you enough money, not to mention the paint, time painting, staining, sanding, fixing it, etc. LOL.

Some people have crazy good luck (or very good habits) from jump and get mad growth in the first 6 months (see Jersey Wendy's tale of the tank. Oooooh). Just that not all of us are that diligent/lucky. There are many ways to fail. The slightest imbalance can knock out a year of growth in a...

You got it, Rod. Buffalo, Sorry we don't have any chaeto (it doesn't grow for me). Hopefully someone else who does can bring some for you.

That guy could sell ice to Eskimos! ReefGadgets to the tankless. You name it. He's in IT but I SWEAR he should be in sales! ;D

Great. Thanks! Still plenty of idaho if anyone else wants a frag.

Makes me wish I still had a frag tank running!

Oh so funny... and oh so darn true! LOL!

Anyone in need of Idaho Grape? Mine is growing out of control. I also have some regular purple cap that needs to be trimmed. I have orange cap that is different than normal orange cap. It is a bit thicker but MUCH deeper in color. It came from a guy in NY who's name escapes me right now. Darn...
