Nice healthy system, well done.

When you get up to that size, ca reactors become more economical and easier to use. I would setup a ca reactor on a system that size.

Unfortunately we had a massive site crash and lost a years worth of post. If you go through threads you can see a big gap.

I think we need to raffle off a camera so you guys can win and keep taking pics of your tanks. Everything looks great.

Glad the time and effort worked out for you and you are enjoying your tank again.

Welcome to the site and yes we can help you here. One of the best ways to get help here is post a picture, as they say it is worth 1000 words. A cell phone snap could help tremendously.

Don't sell it, as much as I would love to have that tank, don't sell it. You will be kicking yourself down the road when you go smaller then want to go bigger and have to buy everything all over again. You will never be able to get that dimension tank again without dropping a fortune. We need...

Alk 8.3 from Brightwell check it out.

The other thing to check is the plastic white screw that is in the injector. You will see it when you take the skimmer cup out. If it is loose it will spill a lot of water out.

Jim if you are not going with corals in the 58 gallon I would look at these: http://www.marinedepot.com/Marineland_Instant_Ocean-LED_Light_Fixtures_for_Aquariums-AS-FILTFILD-ct.html I have always wanted that tank for interesting stuff, non reef safe stars, cuttlefish, tobies, things of that...

This is the HOB model right? Where is the skimmer cup set? The higher you go the dryer it skims and the lower it is the wetter it skims. The black o ring that goes around it is how you set it.

Glad to see you got back on the horse, this hobby can be incredibly frustrating at times. Everything looks great and a sun coral cube sounds awesome. Look for some dendros too, they are nice corals.

This reminds me of the guy who was trying to bring Clipperton angels in and got caught. Never a good thing for the hobby. http://blog.aquanerd.com/2011/08/collector-for-cortez-marine-pleads-guilty-to-illegally-collecting-rare-angelfish.html

Do I have to move it again?:abnormal: I have seen this tank in person and it is amazing. We were just measuring out spaces in the living room to see if it would work, but we are way to new in the house to take on a project like this. This is a great deal for whoever gets it.

2 prime ribs over here (yes one is for NikkiT)

Yes they are Phil, again I am sure I am not using it to its full potential, but I like what I am getting.

When you switched over to the new lights, how long are you running them vs your old lights?

It could be dinos or diatoms, it does make a differnence in how to attack it.

Where is the "algae" and what does it look like? Certain member of the clean up crew only go after certain things. For example nassarius snails are great for churning a sand bed and catch the detritus that hits the sand bed, but they will do nothing for algae.
