    Lighting Question - I hope to get lots of feedback

    I believe that the color of the MH bulb you're using is going to have a FAR greater effect on your coral coloration than the color of your actinics. The actinic spectrum is [nearly] purely for our enjoyment and not the benefit of the corals. So coral color-wise you'd be best off changing your...

    SPS Coral Identification ???

    Closer photos would help a great deal with identification. It is hard to see the coralites, polyps, skin, etc from this distance.

    easiest way to remove a sandbed...

    Once the tank is empty of water, a small dust pan (preferably plastic) can be used to remove the sand as well. Just be careful not to drag the dust pan up the glass.

    My new cube

    I saw 265 this weekend. It was very nice. ;D I'd be looking at the new line of wider tanks though!

    June meeting wrap up.

    Mine was in white water when I got it. I knew it didn't have a chance. I've never had problems with any of Stan's surviving though, so I'm not sure acclimation is as big a factor.

    need suggestion on CO2 bottle valve

    We're replacing a Milwalkee with a Reef Fanatic. We've run it for a while now, so you should be good for a while, but when you go to replace it, replace it with a RF.

    do i have a case with a paypal dispute?

    Well if you're in the window you should make the claim and THEN sort it out. If you go the other way there's too good a chance that you won't still be in the window when you realize that things aren't going to work out.

    What are your electrical costs for running your Reef System???

    LMAO! That's too funny. I talked to someone the other day who asked if keeping SW was an expensive hobby. I said that all depended on what you compared it to. Airplanes are certainly case in point! Even a gas powered boat today is a huge expense to take out and run.

    Sulfur Denitrator: Who's running one?

    From what Carlo said you could use the Milwalkee controller. It is supposed do negative ORP. I'd contact the manufacturer to be sure as I have not confirmed this.
