If food sits in the Jebao it may clog the lines. I have 2 Eheim autofeeders and they work great, though dumping into the sump may just lead to a collection of food in a non filtered area. Why not just use the Eheim to dose directly into the tank near the return?

Initially I thought 'Wow, that's small, even for a 5g', but it works really well and balances the tank nicely. All looks great. Watch the Xenia. The stuff will spread by spore and take over the entire tank. Relatively quickly. If you don't want a Xenia specific tank, I'd get it out of there ASAP.

Saw Mark's tank in person a few months back. Look at the arch running from mid tank to the right. The man made it from shells. And it looks ^&%K*(* great. He's insane. And he saved my arse from a plumbing mistake on my new build (thanks Mark!).

Many moons ago, when I flew with the Coast Guard and could fit into a flight suit, I would occasionally be stationed in Guantanamo Bay. Before it became a prison camp it was loaded with interesting things, like iguanas, bazillions of tiny lizards, iguanas, vultures, scorpions, banana rats, and...

Fishcicles, coralcicles, snailcicles, and such. But, one can argue that in a well insulated house, over a few hours, with the water buffer, and a tank kept at 79-80F, the temperature drop may be negligible over a few hours, especially in larger tanks. Even if a drop of 4-5 degrees occurs over a...

First, let me go just back a few posts to post #31 - The Successful but Meh Hanger I take every 'Meh' back. Once the cords are zipped in it looks good. As a bonus, if i need to move the light, I can just slide it to the side (the plant holders rotate in the conduit). And, I reckon in the future...

HOLY COW UPDATE! Last night filefish was on its side unmoving, large clown about the same, all zoas closed, all SPS withdrawn and fading color. Left for work this morning and came home tonight to count my losses. Everything is OK, I mean everything (except for those SPS that were acclimating...

Going to be looking into these options with the new tank. Matt, Same thoughts. Generator no good unless I'm here to turn it on.

As we pull into our driveway tonight, at 7:45, our neighbor informs us there's no power. I ask him how long the powers been out, he says 'since about 9:30 this morning. At just after 8pm power returns. Taking stock of damage in main tank after 11 1/2 hours without power... Filefish didn't make...
