    Anthias

    In that sized tank you should be ok, most anthias are generally peaceful. Adding a female to the male might help if there is any aggression. Squarebacks do get bigger and are different enough from the bartlets that you should be ok.

    Lob Stark's 20 gal Reef Tank

    I would agree that a sump would be a great idea and opens up a ton of options for filtration. A GFO reactor is used to run GFO which keep your phosphates lower.

    Gone a few days - feeding?

    What point is it Saltwater and not Brackish?

    Question 1 on salinity: I would probably want to be at 1.026, however if you are not doing corals or inverts at all, you could probably get away with less. Fish stores generally keep fish at lower salinites for lengths of time with no issues. I still would want it at least over 1.02 but that...

    Mike's Dream Build

    Hair algae on the sand is a bit much but it should go away. The good news is it is easy to vacuum out from there.

    frozen food that thawed / refrozen?

    If it were me I would toss it. That is a little too long to have it thawed.

    blange3's 180 upgrade

    Sounds like a great plan. We went with just one tang in our 205 and a bunch of anthias and wrasses. With the softies, you could generate a lot of movement and a really cool system

    I have a blueline in my basement as well. Probably as reliable as a mag, but less wattage.

    Can anyone in NNJ help me plumb my new tank this week?

    Where are you located? If you cannot find a local reefer, give Ethan a call at Aquatic Obesessions. He is a plumbing wizard.
