We have a 4 light fixture over a 65 soon to be 90 tank (18" front to back). It is enough light for the lowlight stuff, but it isn't enough for any high end SPS, clams, etc. So enough for a broad range of things (caps, digi, shrooms, etc), but not enough for torts, crayolas, clams, etc.

I poked holes and used zip ties to hold mine together. Worked like a charm. I used a mini-version (water bottle) to catch some inverts before treating the system with interceptor.

Well, I've learned my "New thing" for today. Thanks, Mark!

Someone else must have or be familiar with that unit. Hopefully they can chime in. That fixture should be fine to get you started. I used a PC fixture with SPS in the very beginning. Does the unit have a channel for a splash guard?

Welcome to NJRC! PCs do not need UV protection to protect the inhabitants. They are already shielded. If your bulbs don't get salt spray on them then you probably don't need to protect the bulbs from water. You do need to take care not to expose the end caps to water/spray/etc as they are not...

There's a whole thread dedicated to this in the SPS forum, complete with dosage recommendations, etc., if you're looking to get started right away. Probably your best place to start and then feel free to ask questions either in the forums or at the meeting as you socialize.

We'll be doing a thorite hands on and a photography workshop this meeting. I think that's about all of the scheduled activity we can muster (and have time for) in one meeting.

Awwwwww! Enjoy your snuggle time.

Absolutely!

Smart smart smart. ;D

It doesn't do "red bugs" (actually yellow with a red head). It does flatworms (red, flat fast reproducing pests) to some small degree.

Lessons are scheduled for November 23 at the meeting. Those interested should bring their cameras!

Insurance does cover it. I'm not sure if it is collision or comprehensive. I hit one last year. And in the spring, one JUMPED OVER my EXPLORER! From the front hood just in front of my driver side over the front hood on the passenger side, grazing the antenna and hood on his way across. I...

Glad to hear it is all sealed up and ready to go again. Now get it running!

Do you have a powerhead in your fuge? That helps ours a lot. Of course if I'm going to have nuicense algae, it may as well be in the sump!

He's not going to be any different when he gets home. Don't stress!

Mean ribs are a stiff competition around here! An outdoor BBQ in July sounds great. Thanks, Bob.

Thanks, Tom!
