Don't you hate it when that happens? I do.

I want one of those. Can you imagine doing the 120 gallon water change a week? That is a lot of tangs in one tank.

I would bring it back and ask for my money back. If they refuse contact the corporate office and explain the situation. I would tell them what you saw them doing at the store and explain that it is improper procedure. Complain that practices like that are hurting the worlds reefs and if that is...

You are probably correct about the fish stressing. Especially the species that you would only normally keep one of. Or maybe they would crash into the glass injuring themselves.

You can get mirrored acrylic. I always thought about that. It would make your tank look huge.

Maybe the addition of a check valve on the suction line inside the sump below the water line instead of a ball or gate valve would work better. I don't see how a power loss could make that loose prime. I guess anything is possible.

I have heard that painting the glass reduces par from your lights. Something about not having the air space that you would have if you just taped on a background. This is only something I heard from one of the sponsors/merchants on this site.

I think that method would work but you would have to have a install a valve on the pipe inside of the sump. Close it when you filled the line. Open that valve when the line is full after you cap the y or t (or install another valve on top). It should stay primed.

I will keep you informed. I expect them to hatch this weekend. I feel like a nervous father.

Thanks again Hawkeye. :) Your guidance in helping me try to attempt to raise the young is appreciated. I have been waiting about 3 or 4 years for this to happen. I am wondering if the recent addition of the anemone is the reason they started breeding. I know they say you don't need the anemone...

I ordered a rotifier starter kit today. It will be here on Wednesday. Thanks for the advice Hawkeye.

It gets more stable after time. I have it and at first it gets stirred up easily. After a while that doesn't happen. I am not sure why. I have read that as it gets colonized with bacteria it is not as easily stirred up. I like it myself.

Congratulations on the spawning. I have had a pair of maroon clowns for a couple of years and today I noticed a batch of eggs myself today. It is a first for me as well. I don't know what to do now. I have been waiting for this and I am unprepared to deal with it. Will you be trying to raise the...

Great stuff. It is all I use now. AO turned me on to it.

Sounds like some kind of grounding problem. :o You can add a grounding probe to your tank. That should protect you from shock but not correct the problem.

I love special effects. Wish I did that for a living.

I was told Agway carried that stuff. You are not too far from Ricks Saddle Shop in Cream Ridge. I know they carry that stuff too.

Try putting a fan blowing across the surface of your sump to keep the temp down a degree or two.

Just checking. You never know what people believe.
