Had 2 Mp40s on my 120. 1/2" glass. Keep the smallest spacer on it and definitely use the anchors and zipties to prevent a floor hit. They're known to do a suicide dive every once in a while. Mine would go 1-2x a week.

Its nice that you put a deck and a pool in there for the clowns

In researching if biomedia can eventually cause a nitrate spike, I found a website that should be stickied. Top notch stuff for a starter aquarist or someone needing a refresher. Beginners guide to the Nitrogen Cycle https://fishlab.com/nitrogen-cycle/ Aquarium Nitrates and how to get rid of...

The bright side of this whole thing is that if you ever join the Washington Reefers Club, and we end up in a reefkeeper war, we'll have an agent on the inside. Best of lucjk with the move. And, If you're out there and get a call stating 'The goniporia sings at midnight', be ready to act.

NIce offer!

When are you going. I can follow you in the Jeep (as long as I don't have to try to get it on the Parkway) and strap the stand to the back. And, just FYI, I heard they're making new 92g corner tank curvy covers, light mounts, and special no-fall curvy glass scrapers, you should probably keep...

Never dealt with ich, so can't comment, but there is something going on in the tank affecting everything. That nem in the picture with the scraper is on its way out as far as I know (and I may know nothing). When a nem is in seriously bad shape it begins to regurgitate its innards. To me, it...

I'd lend you the Jeep happily but the bouncing and the parts falling off it at highway speed might be an offput. Do the Lowes or HD thing if you cant find anyone. Just tell them its a few local back and forth trips and they'll charge you $19 for a half day, just fill the tank on the return. That...

I picked up this... https://www.bulkreefsupply.com/smart-buddie-rodi-booster-pump-aquatic-life.html https://www.amazon.com/Aquatic-Life-Booster-Reverse-Osmosis/dp/B00OMBPNHI/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=smart+buddy+booster&qid=1599927210&sr=8-1 It is a WORLD of difference. I can fill a 30g tank...

And here's our numbers. Top number is pre-screen. Bottom number is screen in place. Now I just need to find a T5 schedule, and maybe back up a bit on lighting times.

Think I got it. As suggested I went out and bought some black fiberglass window screen. Initially I put it over the entire splash cover and PAR levels dropped considerably across the tank with the center of the tank dropping from 380 to 220 at the top rock level and from 220 to 105 at the sand...

Well, the height is part of the problem. They’re about 6” off the water but thats the size of the mounting legs. Also, any higher and I have to worry about light spillover into the rear chamber.

Cool deal folks. Mark, great idea, I’ll give it a go. Will use nylon to avoid rust I guess. Sponge, these are 36”, Ill look into sleeves as well. Thanks to all. :)

So with my current 4 bulb T5 setup, the top of my tank is sitting in about 380 PAR, the bottom around 180. Wee bit too high. If I remove 2 bulbs, the top drops to 160ish. BIt too low. If I try to run 3 bulbs, which would be perfect, no dice, the circuit on the light runs bulbs in pairs. My...

Heya Mark, Hope alls well. If 46 or 47 is still about lemme know, I'll take one.

Helping my son with his schoolwork today, about the attacks. Twice I had to stop and walk away to collect myself. My son saw I was upset, came out and gave me a hug, and I explained to him what I saw that day. I won't show him the videos just now, still don't think I can ever see them again.

The s o b insisted on giving me money for it. Last time I deal with him, hurmph.

I'm still in shock this hasn't sold. I feel like Captain Renault in Casablanca... If I had space I'd buy it and use it as a multiple nano tank display or a frag display with one of those big zoo meds on it. Is this on R2R? Letgo is big now, as is FB marketplace. Aside from a stand its just a...

Heya boss! Welcome back!

So, I’m running a 30g tank, 36” long. Tank is 12” deep. 4” above the tank is a 4 bulb T5 (36”/39w bulbs). Bulb brands are mixed now, Geissman and ATI (2 blue, 1 actinic, 1 coral plus). Two lights run from 10am to 6pm, with additional 2 kicking in from 12 to 4pm. Some of my montis are losing...
