The bird was moved down to Nikki's parents house for its own safety. However we have a third kitty to make up for it, I will post some pics later.

Wow looks great.

Now just imagine if the tank was a bit bigger say like 140g bigger and you had it filled with all that coral:fox: Tank looks amazing, glad you are doing so well with the 40.

We have kept favias for a long long time upon our cube. We had some success with Duncan's and some acan but the acan do need to be a bit higher. Our trumpets thrived in there.

No the 50/50 actually comes out pretty white, probably like a 12k ish if I was just doing an eye test.

I ran that same combo for a little while but really prefer the 50/50 bulbs. I was a lot happier with the colors in the tank. I had a bunch of favias in there that all seemed to like it.

Which lights do you have on there and how often do you replace them? The CF lights we ran where the 50/50 bulbs and they really need to be replaced every 6 months.

BTW the RSVP link is now in the first post of this thread. We have three cats so you really need to schedule and appointment to see them and let us know which one you want to see. :friendly_wink:

Just give the bleached one time, it will take longer than a few days.

There are certain corals people have had for a long time that just become a canary in the coal mine. If you read a lot of the TOTM winners on RC, most of them will say they can just look at their tanks and know a parameter is off.

Oops, I will fix that.

TGreetings everyone!! Nikki and I are glad to open our house for the holiday party this year. Since Sandy has wiped out our frag swap we decided to go to someone's house instead of a resturant so it could be a little less formal and we could all have some fun. We are going to have some big coral...

A 70g cube like that you could have a lot of fun. We have always loved a lot of small fish vs a few large ones and I think that strategy would work great for that tank. Helfrichi firefish or purples depending on your taste Anthias: Look for the smaller ones A flasher wrasse pair Gobies, we...

As an added note, you can buy the upgrade kit to turn these into 40s which makes this a great deal.

Get the tank, we can help you out.

Not really, off the top of my head I really don't know to many pests that outright attack softies and LPS (the excpetions being zoas). I am not saying that fish or inverts will go after them, but actual pests that just exist to eat them. Between red bugs, acro eating flatworms, and monti...

You can get away with the SPS in the 24g tank, just put them up really high and don't keep them in there for too long. Just dip observe and re dip. What some people are doing is the immediately cut the frag off the disk or whatever it is on beacuse the eggs are typically laid on the undersid...

That is a great deal on a cad lights tank and yes it is the marineland stand.

Motepora caps are very easy and generally very cheap. Digipora, spongedes, and the birdsnests types (seriatopa) are all considered beginner SPS. Now to save yourself a ton of headaches just a couple of tips. SPS can very easily bring in pests that can take over your tank and be a royal PIA to...

You can mix it in water if you are just doing a general cleaning. I really only soak things in straight vinegar if they really need it.
