I leave all my pumps on when feeding. Mainly because I have K3's and am afraid of them not starting up, one has to be kicked start all the time. I feed frozen and add it in very slowly over a period of 15 minutes. In the beginning the fish get all the food and what's left is blown around for the...
Thanks for the info. Was considering one for my 75g reef. Placing it on the overflow side all pointing to the right. Do think it would to much flow or not enough?
Was looking on eBay for a Mag9 and came across this wave maker pump. Does anyone have any info on this?http://cgi.ebay.com/12000L-H-DUAL-TWIN-WAVE-MAKER-AQUARIUM-PUMP-POWERHEAD_W0QQitemZ170415811463QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item27ad92eb87#ht_2529wt_939
Dave,
Thanks for the read. I didn't realize it was a certain type of algae. Most articles led to me believe it was a place to have algae grow instead of the DT. While the water passes through it would in a sense help clean it. Now I will have to give it more thought.

I have seen that and was going to try it but one thing stopped me. If I remove all the socks, pads, etc. wouldn't all the dirt get trapped on screen? Then you wouldn't you be in the same position of not replacing/cleaning the that equipment? I could never find out how long it takes for the turf...
I had new carpet installed and the doors no longer fit. I need someone to trim about 6 doors; don't have anything to trade but I do have cash. Let me know what you want to do this. I don't have a circular or table saw which is why I am not able to do this myself.

I always started my lions off on live such as feeder guppies. They eventually, got used to the net and would eat right out of it practically. At this point I would add frozen or freeze dried krill mixed with the guppies. I would decrease the guppies and increase the other food. Lions finally...
Are you saying that frozen foods aren't good or good enough? All the food I feed the fish is frozen such as mysis, brine, blood worms, spirulina, and reef plankton. I was always hesitant on using fish eggs only because I wasn't sure what to use. I don't know any stores locally that sell live...
Rich,
That sucks but don't leave. I think going FOWLR is a good idea right now. The fish don't need as much care as the corals. I am considering the same thing and plan to add more shrooms whether I upgrade or not.
Paul,
Been reading your posts and was wondering what constitutes healthy in your opinion. Is it just food or other things? I always felt my fish were healthy as I feed a varied diet but none even attempted spawning.
