    Earl's 55g mixed reef

    It takes a couple of feeding for the fish to get used to them, but once they do they love them.

    Need help finding QUIETEST protein skimmer

    What does your stock list/coral selection look like? My 45 cube with probably 10g in the sump was stocked very heavy coral and medium on fish and the swc 120 was plenty of skimmer. I think you could very easily use it on the 57g, if I had not already purchased the bubble magus, I would have...

    Best mp40 mode for sps

    What makes the vortechs great is their crazy flow. You will be just fine with it and really impressed with the flow and undertow you get in the tank.

    Best mp40 mode for sps

    I have a 40 in my 80g frag tank and it is not at full speed. If I turned it up, it would blow my frag racks all over the place and probably pin the fish to the opposite wall. I ran a mp40 on my 205 before I got the mp60 and it did a very admirable job in there.

    Best mp40 mode for sps

    You should be fine with the mp40 on a 40 breeder. Your glass is not thick enough to really give it an issue. If you line it up correctly, the thing should be very close to silent 90% of the time. Also, being in a 40 breeder you will have the thing at %50 power at best. My mp40s were silent...

    Need help finding QUIETEST protein skimmer

    I ran the Bubble Magus nac (foget the number) on my 57g which was in my living room and did not hear any noise. I also had a swc 120 on my 45g cube which also made no noise.

    Not an emergency at all - Just trying to figure what the hell is going on

    If you are close to aquatic obsessions or absolutely fish they have dr gs food which is medicated with praziquantel. This way you can treat the fish in your display without dumping praziquantel in.

    Classklown's 40B SPS Paradise

    Nice, I read the article in coral magazine about the blue stripes natural habitat being stony corals in high flow areas. Once you can get them eating, they are supposed to be incredibly easy to keep. One member, quik, on here had a pair that was laying eggs for him.

    New Plasma Lighting Article

    I heard that smcooler is now running a plasma over his grow out tank and it is quite impressive. The main knock on plasma is the color. When plasmas ramp up to %100 the spectrum is like 6500k which we are no longer used to. When they ramp down they get a bluer tinge to them but you would need...

    2 Dwarf Angels in 57g

    I have two dwarfs in a 205 and they fight. If your heart is set on two angels in your tank then your best bet is a pair of the same kind. However, that in itself can be rather risky and tough to get a pair. If I had to pick one I would go with the pygmy out of that group.

    Zips new frag/qt tank

    Do a search for black egg crate and see if you can find it. People seem to have better luck with it as far as algae growth goes. You don't need to replace it now but down the line you might want to.

    Zippys tank

    Nice growth, it is always awesome to take some pics and then come back and see the corals grown out.

    iTzJu's 90 Gallon Mixed Reef Adventure :)

    And to furthur confuse you I would recommend the Maxspect Mazzaras. Like the Vegas you can have more than white and blue which means you do not need any T5 supplementation. All the bulbs are plug and play with a screw driver (no soldering) which means as new colors come out you can swap them...

    If I can't find it local, Live Aquaria is amazing and Pacific Island Aquatics is a very very close second.

    SeahorseKeeper's 55 Reef (pic intensive)

    Have you played with the Mazzara at all? I have 4 of them and have yet to really dig into them.
