Louis XIII is always a good congratulatory drink after starting a reef.

You can follow this page as I am sure a lot of aquarium people will be too. There are a ton of articles out there destroying Snorkel Bob and his terrible science/statistics. It is worrisome but it should push all of us to be better reefers.

When I first setup a tank, my first inhabitants where a pair of black and white oscellaris. They would always nip your hand when you were doing tank maintaence which always freaked me out. I felt like such a wuss being afraid of a 2 inch clown.

I use vitamin C and elos aminos for fish on my frozen food. I will also add some garlic for when I first get fish.

Happy Birthday!

Earle's wrasse. Similar striping to a candy but not the same. I will try and get some pictures of our candy that lives in our 12 g

White plastic drum.

Got this from bax a while ago and never used it. Food grade 30g container with lid that comes off. This thing needs to be cleaned and soaked in vinegar (IIRC that is what the others did who bought this) but it is free to whomever gets it first. Again clearing out the garage.

We have two bags of live sand that broke open so the sand is now dead. We did not use it and it has never seen a tank. I just want it out of my garage so free to whoever comes and picks it up.

First off welcome to the club!! Second as someone who went from a 20g to a 45g I completely understand. Couple of quick questions: Is this a 45 cube? Is there a sump? What sort of equipment are you going to use? Fish wise: In our 45g we kept at one point or another: Flasher wrasse (need a...

Light Update: I decided to take advantage of the functionality of my Mazarras and swapped out some LEDs and also added a fifth fixture. So I added one red, one green and one purple LED to each fixture (15 bulbs in all) and I really like the way it looks. It was super simple to do as I am the...

Welcome to the club, nice way to start off with a Tale of the Tank.

We all do and I think that lends to more trouble then it is worth.

I would. Get used to the bigger tank, make sure there is not another cycle, and then you should be good to go.

Mike I had the ATI dimmable sunpower.

Go with six, get the dimmable fixture so then you don't have to worry about it.

Just check your favorite flake food to see what the ingredients are. I know some of the pellet foods have trace amounts of copper in them which obviously you would not want to feed to your corals.

I would be real careful with that dirty sand. If it has been exposed tithe elements for a while who knows what is in there. Look at Marco rocks website, I believe they have cheap sand too.

Paul as far as the brand goes I think it is like the great salt debate. Personally when I start using them I am going with Warner marine. I can't give you any scientific data on that, I just feel like from what I have read and what I have seen from people who run them, they are the brand to go...

Paul: Which pellets are you going to use? John: Do you dose any coral aminos?
