    WATER CIRCULATION

    One advantage of the higher turnover rates is gas exchange / Oxygenation. I agree 10x is excessive. Personally, I wouldn't shoot for anything under 5x IMO. But that's just me.

    My 180 Gallon Oceanic Reef Tank - Pic intensive

    Don't sweat it. We lock members up for not posting pics. No such thing as too many pictures IMO. Keep em coming! BTW...tank looks great! What's that big bullseye, scolly looking thing on the bottom anyway?

    Who is into T-5s ???

    Make sure you get the individule bulb reflectors (SLR's) if your doing it retro. Otherwise you will only be getting a small amount of the available par into the tank.

    How about instead of Adult/Childern you track by Household/Other or something like that.

    WATER CIRCULATION

    The rule of thumb, which may not necessarily be correct as it seems excessive to me, is 10x the tank volume. So a 65g tank would require a 650gph pump more or less.

    Mike - can you change the adult count to 2 in your RSVP? That way Tom is included in the total count as well.

    Emerald Crab behavior

    Or maybe they are stressed and are getting ready to molt.

    Emerald Crab behavior

    Nick, the crabs were picking at something under their own belly plate. I'm not sure but my guess is they are female's and I believe they carry their eggs under the plate. Hopefully they are just doing some house cleaning.

    im new here looking for reef stores in nj

    Well, I live about 1/2 hr south of AC. The store closest to AC, Ocean Aquarium, isn't much for reef stuff. And this time of the year they cut way back on the fish order also. Even though it's "central" jersey, I'd recommend Tropiquarium near Neptune / Asbury Park.

    Skimmer help

    If your going to get all cured rock, pick up a half dozon or so chromis from Ocean Aquarium. You'll also want to add a small pinch of some type of food every 4 or 5 days even without fish.

    Skimmer help

    The live rock is cured correct? If so, there is little waste for the skimmer to skim. Need to get some poop in there!
