if you have the room, a pressure rated pump like the tarpon would work - but it's BIG...you could probably use it as a manifold for other equipment. bax and jrwohler have 120s also - might check with them/their tale of the tank to see what they are running.

i'm not an expert on algae but i always thought the bubble stuff was metallic/green kinda. Anyways i agree with redfish. From my experience, i would just do a water change, then before dumping the old water out, take the LR out and then scrape the offending algae off. Use the old water to swish...

how big is the DT? Anytime you are adding a tang to a tank with two established tangs (or even one) - you are rolling the dice unless the DT is big. Impressed you caught the hippo out. Some ways to help minimize stress would be to totally re-aquascape everything so that no one has a "turf" to...

Never seen "liquid" come out of a anemone - though maybe it's just the way I'm envisioning it. Anemone's are relatively primitive creatures in that they have a single opening...it's used for both eating and pooping. What you are seeing is likely some residual stuff it's pushing out. I've never...

never saw that link before...something to read and see if we can update our board here with! the only thing i'm not sure about is the snowflake eel in a 30g...considering they grow to about 30". :) I guess a small one would work.

i know jobs are scarce and all - but seriously - can they not find a guy who knows to look for a box that says LIVE FISH all over it? I guess you can't find good help these days? but redfishbluefish - all I can say is that thank goodness I wasn't drinking anything- as when I read your post it...

ok phew - sometimes you never know - I recall one person had a "beautiful polyp" that turned out to be a majano type anemone. :P Personally I think jawfish are intelligent and fun to watch. That could serve as your "bottom" dwelling fish. However if you have friends (like me) who everytime...

well there's always the good ole' standby of setting up a fan in the cabinet blowing across the sump. The evap will be higher but it will help maintain the temp. Another idea is to utilize T5 lighting instead of MH. I'd suggest LEDs but these days who knows what's going on with that.

sorry to ask the obvious question but you're sure these so-called button polyps you have are not aiptasia right? or majanos?

probably just about $100...after the discount and factoring in the paypal fee. Depends on how big the group buy which will impact the discount.

while the posts have not been as frequent...we're still thinking about maddie here.

jim - welcome. these threads might help if you haven't checked them out yet: http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=12331.0 http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=12332.0

participate in the group buy in June....is "how". Free shipping plus the discount. Probably one of the best benefits of being a member. (Besides being able to say smug things on the members-only forum). LOL...i'm joking.

lol i saw that website years ago. When they get that sized the hunted starts to become the hunter.... :o

and for those with the disposable income - a chiller could be bought! i think my wife has already earmarked our tax return funds...lol.

only reason to run them separate is to start them a little earlier than the whites - to give the fish a chance to adjust. If you have lunars then it's not as important at night but similarly you could run the actinics an extra 30 minutes before switching to lunars.

junk/aceswild - i asked a question to premium aquatics - this is what they said to me (for a 120). Mind you I asked about a ASM and he re-directed to the below (i'm guessing they want to sell the newer stuff to make more money). ATI BM160 $449.95 (Good skimmer, although would be at it’s limits...

euro-reef and the ASM (knock-off of euro) are solid performers.
