    Help me filter my water better

    Not only is the bioload a problem, but depending on the size of the fish's, there is not much room for them to swim in. For the Macro-algae, all you need is a fist full or the size of a baseball.

    I'm new here. Need help building a 55 gallon reef tank

    Welcome to the club...... I prefer an overflow box over drilling a tank like HarryK mentioned. Harry has also mentioned a good pump (Mag 9). They do tend to run hot but a good pump.

    "Japanese style" aquascaped and/or 'minimalist' reef tanks

    Merve the only difference between your tank and there's, is the back glass. I guarantee you that if you scrape the coraline off the back glass and have a black backing, it will be night and day. You will rethink about removing more rock from the DT. I bet some people can't tell that you have...

    lighting dilemma - need opinions

    I don't think theres anything to add here but I do have something to say. "GO T5's". I'm currently running the Aquactinics Solar Flare on my 90 and couldn't be happier. This fixture has 6 bulbs and my corals are growing nicely at the bottom with no sand. I am also going to try T5'S on my 210.
