Just MH, I think I have a bit too much wattage (250w for a 30g cube) so I want to experiment with higher K bulbs to see if that helps.

I was actually thinking of starting something similiar. I am running 14k right now but looking to move up to 20k (250w de). Which of the bulbs in the buy would you guys recommend? I believe the choices are XM, Ushio, and Reeflux.

We just bought a six bulbs 36 inch fixture from tek for 250. It had the guard but no legs. The legs are like 50-65 anywhere else so add that into the equation. Look for a shield, they will make your life a lot less stressful.

We calibrate our refractometer with fresh RO water (zero reading). I don't think is really matters what number you are calibrating to, as long as you know that number. Even the LFS I bought it at calibrated it in front of us with fresh water. It is always nice to save a bit of money in this hobby.

I have the Oceanic 57 rimless at home right now. Ordered it through Aquaqtic Obsessions. Really impressed with the tank, but it is sitting empty right now.

What kind of skimmer?

I agree with jazzsam, we just did a complete cleaning of all the pumps for our skimmers and the performance difference was amazing.

I know that colony. Glad to see they are doing better, also glad you fragged it a while back as insurance.

I take my fish to sit on Santa's Lap, which becomes our Christmas Card. It is so hard to get the little suits on them, but they look so good all dressed up. :D

Quick shot of my favia with polyp extension:

Chaps would be more appropriate.

The directions on the bottle are pretty much spot on, 4 drops a gallon daily for a high nutrient system. My glass also gets less algae growing on it as well, has helped a lot.

Look at pots for plants for your tile. Really cheap and you can get different shapes out of it. When we were down in disney they used a full pot for the clowns to lay eggs in (which they did) and made it easier to move around. If you don't want to use the full pot you can break/cut it up into...

I have been dosing Microbacter7 for the like the past three weeks. Has gotten rid of cyano blooms that I went through for most of the summer.

This really only works when fish get cramps after a strenuous swim.

That is why reefkeeping is an art and not a science.

Usually they don't go after the credit card company or your card, usually they go after a big retailer (Macy's for example) and hack their records and get the card numbers.

We were quite upset with the whole thing last night, now we are debating to add another goby (maybe a yasha) or to just leave it alone and listen to what our tank is telling us.

I have had two Christmas surprises with this happening. Just had someone try and change my address to Oregon, the company called me and put the account on hold. They then game me several companies to have them put a freeze on my social, and offered to go over a credit report with me. Luckily no...

He sold me too, Taz do I put your name in as a coupon code or something?
