Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Heres an update,
the idols and reagl are doing fantastic activly searching out and taking food when ever fed,I have added 2 small power heads to the qt so the food flies around the tank I don't want them to become lazy eaters when moved to a bigger tank.Next step will be to a 75 and then as long...
For what it's worth I downgraded from a 150 to a 120,for me it's just the perfect size tank.Do I miss the 2 feet in space I lost, not really just more water to change.
I use the following:
Magnesion-p
calcion-p
elemental-
8.3
I bought all of these in the biggest size available from my lfs and it only cost me $60.00 for everything, each container does 4000 gallons of water treatment.
If you only want 1 overflow go with perfecto,mine has 1 corner overflow much nicer and easier to hide than the AGA duels or off sets.and they give you the overflow kit for FREE.
I would go with this fixture over any other:http://cgi.ebay.com/24-SOLAR-T5-AQUARIUM-LIGHT-HOOD-FREE-LEGS-4-X-24-W_W0QQitemZ350170179767QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
It will grow back in time,how did it get chopped off anyway?
Ok so now I need to bust ya....Surfnturf is LOBSTER tail not shrimp.. ;D (sorry had to do it)
after my fuge section I have 2 baffles the first is tight to the bottom and the second is raised so I don't get any splash which equals no micro bubbles.
HTH
