    45 Gallon Custom Marinland Cube Tank Build

    I liked shaving bush plants...did pretty well for a while, and turtle grass was good too. I have considered them but don't have a lot or realestate left.

    QT Question about multiple fish

    In a 45 G you should be fine so long as they are smaller sized IMHO. I kept 2 tangs and a blenny in a smaller tank then that, not optimal but for QT you make do. I do hypo from day one slowly dropping the salinity over a week then after 3-4 weeks of no ick I start to raise back up slowly. I...

    He QTs all his fish before hand so they are disease free. Has more limited stock but a lot of people swear by him.

    Brandon's WTH was I thinking 125 gallon madness

    Looks real good. From your stocking list I would indeed add the two tangs last. If you have a big enough QT you can do 3 fish...my experience was the two tangs you were thinking of and a blenny in my 24G QT. Not huge fish mind you but medium sized. You have to keep up serious water changes on a...

    I had a thought(scary huh?), what is your PH? What do you have to facilitate gas exchange? A skimmer would do it, or overflow, or HOB filter. Just hate to see you have a super low PH due to the completely sealed top.

    sump/overflow help

    Noise and reliabilty wise for the cost the Mag is great. Heat entirely different story. With the Mag 18 you can run a good manifold size wise.

    Yeah that tank might be a bit small for QTing those. Just make sure you QT your fish. Bunch of explanations on how to do it. Unless you buy from Dr Jim then you are good to go. That tank will be good going forward for smaller fish though. Good to know you are planning ahead. :)

    sump/overflow help

    I never noticed noise with my Mag pump for what it is worth. At least with the ball valve you can tune it to see what is what with the water sound.

    Skimmers for a JBJ 28G

    Nano fission is real crap. I ran fuge, chemical filtration and floss.

    sump/overflow help

    OK this one I can help with I hope. First make sure that none of you drain hoses have dips in them this results in a flushing sound. (yes my living room sounded like a public bathroom) Next the small holes are fine but you may or may not want them. Will at AO gave me a great tip if you have...

    OOPS, Forgot the liverock

    If it didn't dry off to bad should be more or less OK. Would do what mnat suggested. Figure tidal rocks are exposed a lot.

    Starting up again after almost a year and a half.... nice to be back

    Glad it helped...just make sure you give the rocks a good blow to get the detrius out as you go.

    10 gallon rimless (fun starts now) with pics!

    Yeah that sounds good for the 10G. So you already have it planned out. Man the 10G I had was a mess, yours looks so much better already.

    Need help for this weekend

    You guys need to connect all your tanks like that one system with clear acrylic pipes. Guess all the moving around keeps the aggression down.

    Take your time...let it cycle properly and make a plan for stocking. 1)clean up crew 2)fish 3)type of corals Remember other then the upgrade ;D you have a limited amount of room...even when you buy the 100+ gallon tank you end up full of stuff and say how did that happen. ???
