Re: Here's my now 375 (was 120) by Bax I just went through one of the smaller ones and bought the next size up for the next round. Granted, I am dosing 50g of water total so I don't go through too much at a time, but I like the way my corals reacted. I paired it with the Brightwell alk 8.3 and...

Re: Here's my now 375 (was 120) by Bax You can buy this stuff in bulk online, brings the cost way down. I have been using it on my nanos and have been impressed. Here is a link from a sponsor for a 35 pound bucket for $149...

Correct.

We had our digi in the middle of our 20g tank under t5s and it was fine. Just a quick note give it a lot of space, that piece stung some corals around it and it grows pretty fast.

It sucks that they are attacking the coral, but don't rush the FOWLR tank because you could kill the fish or rush the setup giving you headaches. The isolation chamber is a great idea, or find someone local to hold onto it for a while.

In a tank that size make sure you go with a pair of the fires. They can be very reclusive and would probably be lost in a tank that size if you have just one. They are more likley to be out and about if you have the pair. I have a pair in a 20g with a pair of cleners, and while they dominate...

There is a restaurant in Wall NJ called Shogun Legends that has been up for about a year or so. It is very good Japanese food with two level, a hibachi restaurant upstairs and fine dining downstairs. Why would I bring this up to the club? They have a MASSIVE salt water fish tank in the middle of...

Couple of updates on this tank as well. Here is the frag rack, all of these zoos where survivors from the crash. Here is another shot of the mystery and the angel mooning me: We made a new purchase, we decided to pair our mandarins. We picked up a male from Trop that looked great. Will work...

Added a yasha goby and pistol shrimp pair, it took a few days but they found each other and have been doing great. The yasha on its own was a bit freaked out after getting aggression displays from the clowns and the fire shrimp who apparently have a taste for gobies. Yasha: You can make out...

What are your thoughts now on the Bio pellets that you have been running them for a while?

Good things happen to those who wait, those zoos look great now that they are opened up, nice pickup.

I don't have the 29 gallon so I don't know what the stock pump is or what the favorite upgrade is. I know for the 12g the maxi jet 900 is the preferred as the 1200 gives off to much heat. The other route you could do is not upgrade the return pump but get a powerhead to provide for flow. You can...

If you can find a way to fit the heater in the back chambers, I would do it. Makes your tank look much nicer and less of a chance you will nuke anything in the display. I use filter floss as well just make sure you change it out weekly or more frequently then that as it does a good job of...

With the all in one nano systems what some people have done is put chaeto ( a macro aglae) in the center chamber with a drop in light to help it grow. Cheato will help export nutrients (nitrates and phosphates) out of the tank which is nice. I have talked to the people at my local LFS who i...

First off welcome to the site, take a look around and you will see a ton of great tanks. Skimmers for nanos is sort of a new thing, the old skimmers were junk, and might be worth a look at. Sapphire makes skimmers that are designed to fit in the back of your tank which is nice, the other ones...

IIRC reading through Paul B tank, which has been up for over 30 years, he goes through cycles like this.

Here is a link to PAR ratings of the major T5 bulbs. PAR is the measurement of what the corals actually use from the light. The higher the number the better: http://sites.google.com/site/tfivetesting/par Bulb combo really comes down to personal choice and what you want your tank to look like...

I heard this guy/girl loves your new setup. Would that be your sump that is your next project?

Looks really nice, the percs look great.

I was going through withdrawal, glad to be back and thank you everyone for the hard work.
