    Permission to upgrade but just thoughts for now

    Is this tank going to be setup pennisula style? Is that why you need viewing from both sides? If so take a look at the elos 120xl. If it truly is going to be your last tank, and you want small overflows, and the ability to put the tank any which way you want, take a look.

    ACC is getting in a full testing lab pretty soon. It might not be a 25k X ray spec but it will be close.

    Buyer beware!!!!!!!

    I was not going to wade into this thread at all but I think we might need a little reality check here. So a fish died because you made a mistake and you want credit for it? You then say you came clean with the owner, so did you lie at first? This whole thread boils down to "The business did...

    Books worth buying

    Bob Fenner The conscientious marine aquarist is a classic and is updated every now and again Joyce Wilkerson Clownfish Matt Wittenrich's Breeders book (Blanking on the name right now) There are a few more that revolve around coral that we don't have but are fairly well known.

    75 gallon Display tank build

    Sounds like plenty of room for some live rock, macro algae and some other stuff. Do you plan on doing anything more that with it?

    Are corals net producer or consumer of nitrate

    I would say probably negligible either way. If they soaked up phosphates and nitrates, people would just stock their tanks with corals and be thrilled. I don't think they produce too many nitrates because they don't produce ammonia the same way fish or foods would. We do know that elevated...

    pH dropped

    You have to give it some time and keep the levels steady. That will help the torch improve, it did with ours when our alk had a bit of a swing.

    First off welcome. Second, there is some very good advice already being give in the above posts. When we had our first tank, before we discovered a good local store, we did buy distilled water from the shop rite because we were only changing out a few gallons at a time. This works, but is...

    Hydras vs Vegas

    I will throw a wrench in the plans. Maxspect mazarras offer full spectrum and unlimited upgrades.

    Thoughts on Caulerpa?

    If I had to choose, I would always go chaeto. No risk of reproduction and pulls nutrients.

    Best combo for t-5s

    4 bulb over a 75g might be stretching for a clam, you might have to put it up higher. I would probably go 2x blue plus and 2x coral plus but that is just me.

    Best combo for t-5s

    bleached sps

    Anything that is pure skeleton you can toss. The other ones might have a shot. Keep the diatoms off them and acclimate them back to the light. You can try fragging off the living parts but that could also stress and kill them.

    bleached sps

    Bleached as in skeleton or bleached as still with flesh and polyp extension?
