    Conversion to 180g

    Phyl/John, the tank looks amazing. Makes me happier that I purchased a 180. One question. Is that a cap in the middle of the tank with a yellow trim around it? What is it called?

    72g Bow Front Reef Project - Freshwater to Saltwater Conversion

    I don't see that 20g being a problem if you have to empty out the 72g tank. Just remove the 72 when its emty and slide in the 20g. Here is my sump under my 72g . I even have a calcium reactor set up on the back left corner behind the refuge. Its pretty tight but I don't need to put anything else...

    bubble algae preference

    Running two skimmers

    Don't mind the cleaning to much. My only concern now is all the air bubbles that both skimmers are going to create. Maybe by seperating each baffles wider than an inch might solve the problem when I build my sump.

    Running two skimmers

    Reason for asking is that I can't afford a more powerfull skimmer. I am planning on purchasing a Euro-Reef RC135 skimmer for a really good price. My setup will consist of a 120 gallon tank with a 50 gallon sump. This will be a medium load setup. Now if I decide to stock heavily the Euro will not...

    48" Current Outer Orbit/T5HO 2x150w --Roselle Park

    I purchased this 48" Current Outer Orbit/T5HO 2x150w from Danny (Roadking05) about a month ago. I originally wanted the 250 watt version but at the time no one was selling one and I purchased his. I finally found one and purchased it. So now I'm selling the one I got from Danny (48" Current...

    Feeding Corals

    Depending on the corals that one has, the tentacles come out at night (when lights are off). The food than sticks to the tentacles and the corals can eat. I feed every other day or every two days.

    Feeding Corals

    I don't know the specific amount of food to feed my corals but what I do is, stop the overflow and keep the pumps running. Than I put some cyclop-eeze in the tank in front of the pumps and let it spread all around. At this point I hope that all the corals catch some of the food with there...

    Stocking options

    Your off to a good start in my opinion. Do you have any corals? This is something you have to take into consideration as some fish like to pick at corals. I also like the Yellow Tang. You could get a small one, but might have to get rid off it at some point as your tank might be to small.
