Hello fellow reefers, Well I finally got my new tank in the house today it took 4 guys to lift the beast. Its a RR 215 gallon oceanic ultimate series tank with a starfire front panel beveled edges and a black painted back panel. the only thing i do not like is the fact that it has a 23" glass...

If you are going to use mud in your fuge, you will have to replace it. I think the whole point of using it is for the minerals and nutrients in it and once it's depleteted it's basically done. I believe it does state on the package that it does need to be replaced every few months or so. Harry

did it affect any other corals besides the SPS. Did any of your LPS get affected? Harry

ok good to know, i'll send them an email, i definately want an in sump model. that's one less pump i have to worry about, not that it's a big deal. thanks Harry

Harry so did you decide on a skimmer yet ? I havent bought one yet but im leaning towards the new Octopus Extreme line I'm leaning towards an octopus. It seems like a pretty good value and they seem to to work well. I'm not sure about the xtreme yet. I was planning on using it insump but now...

ed, now that i saw the link you attached they do look like radioactive dragon eyes almost exact. and the second zoas are orange not red. I always thought they were eagle eyes but wasn't sure. I'll post them at zoaid just to get some more info thanks harry

Not sure what these zoanthids are called. I bought the green ones at a LFS it has 3 polyps when i bought it. it's really cool, bright green skirt with a deep purple almost maroon center The next one's im not sure of. they look like dragon eyes or wham'n watermelon not sure any help would be...

isn't it a great feeling. I'll be where you are in a few months after my upgrade is all done. good luck Harry

not a bad light it's just generic, personally i'm partial to T5's they produce less heat then CF's and last longer Harry

Wow that sucks, i'll have to keep that in mind thanks

I'm interested in the retros also. where can i find the one's your talking about Thanks Harry

Merry Christmas and Happy holidays to everyone. Harry ;D

I'm curious also. Euro reef from what i read is "supposed" to be one of the top protein skimmers Harry

Pete, On the euro reef website the RS-135 has a 300 gallon comparative rating, but i guess if you have a heavy fish load its rating is only 100-135. so i think for a 215 with an average to low fish load it would be ok Harry

OK, now the fun part begins. Since i ordered my new tank (215 gallons), i have to start thinking about a new good protein skimmer rated for 300 Gallons at least i'm thinking. This would be an in sump skimmer. Below are my choices. I would love any feedback or if any one has any experience with...

don't forget about a protein skimmer. you'll need one rated for at least 300 gallons Harry

Braveheart, the old guy talking to his son, the big red haired guy,
