I bought mine from TB Aquatics, who is also a NJRC sponsor I believe and you may get a discount(?), and for around $145 got a 75 GPD with dual TDS meter (highly recommended so you know when you need to change filters.) Here's a Link First of all, they are based in NJ, so the shipping is fast...

Just saw this thread and was thinking about catching some critters for my tank at the shore as well. However, I'll be on the southern tip of the Jersey shore (Wildwood) for a week starting Sunday the 26th. If anyone will be down in that area and wants to do something similar any day that week...

Uncko... Yes, it has one power cord that controls all 8 switches. Think of it as an 8 outlet powerstrip, and each plug has it's own on/off toggle on the front panel. The plug for each button is directly behind it too, so it's easy to match them up properly. It's great for manually flipping any...

If you are talking about the 8-switch power panel mounted under the stand, it's a "Chauvet". Not sure where the original owner's bought it from, but I believe it's the same as This one It also has a ground wire on it, which I attached to the plug on my grounding rod for the tank. Why do you ask...

Thanks to you too mnat. I figured getting the fish first might be the way to go, but also want to get some color in their asap. I will probably pickup a couple more fish before jumping into corals, but I'm going to get some sooner or later and would still like more advice on corals too. As to...

Thanks Jcurry. I appreciate the advice. Sell the coco? I specifically asked the folks in the invert group buy thread if the coco would be ok with what I have and I was told it would be fine, which is why I added it to my order. If it won't survive with what I have, then let me know and I'll...

Cheapest price I've found them - $ 5.99 That fish place.

Hello njstillwell. I'm extremely new to reefing myself (my tank is only a few weeks old) but I'll put my 2 cents in from my limited experience of moving an active tank. Take this as you wish, but keep in mind I'm certainly not a pro. I just moved a 75g setup from Allentown to South Jersey. It...

Hi all, I'm new to reefing and have recently set up a 75g reef ready tank. I won't bore you with all the details but if you want them you can check out my Tale of the Tank thread where I have quite the novel going. Here is a basic list of my current equipment: 75g corner overflow 30g sump...

It's been a busy couple days so it's time for an update... I changed out 5 gallons in the QT tank on Wednesday night and removed all the crushed coral. It's a shame to have all that live sand go to waste, but I just put it in the bucket with all the stuff I took out of the 75g tank and it's...

Thanks for all the replies everyone. I'll probably check out that link mnat and hopefully find something. It will just have to fit on that shelf and the bigger the better I guess.

Gotcha. Well, when I remove the crushed coral tonight, I'll need to add more water anyway, so may as well do a water change too.

Old thread, but I drove by this store last week and it was indeed still closed. I didn't see any signs stating that it was going to open back up either.

Thanks for the tips JR! Yea, I was actually contemplating putting in a plenum before putting in my rock just for those reasons. I know that will cause another sandstorm, so I'll remove Nemo when I take on that project. ;) By the way, he seems to really be enjoying himself lately. He's been...

Hello Hawkeye and thanks for your input! Unfortunately it was a bit late since I already moved forward since I asked those questions... but good advice nonetheless. Luckily, I was able to figure it all out myself with a bit of reading on the web. So, I went to my LFS and bought a smaller...

Thanks Phil! If I need anyone local to help figure something out in person, I'll be in touch. See ya around. George

I'll have to find out where this Tropiquarium is and see what they look like. They have a website?

Good topic! I have a new 75 gallon tank I just setup and was wondering which powerhead to get for it? I heard great things about the Vortechs also, but was wondering if something cheaper like a Koralia 5 would be good enough for me? Tank is basically just one fish and water at the moment, but...

I'd be interested in that I think JR... if you remember or if anyone else knows what he is talking about, please post a link.

Hmm, now that you mention it, I'm not even sure if that pump is submersible or not. It may be an external for all I know. Thanks for the replies Mbodell.
