    Closed loop in an overflow???

    That is probably a better idea.

    Need help figuring this out.

    I have a controller now and one old style thermometer. I just want them close though they are a bit different at this point not too far out of wack. Just double check your temp I guess is what I am suggesting.

    Need opinion and suggestions Quarantine Tank

    I agree with you Rbu1 QT is the only way to go. I believe there are some pretty viable ways, copper, hyposalinity, cloriquine, and perhaps herbal. I believe in the whole garlic rid ick(the herbal one) but more in the keeping your fish healthy then treating them sort of way. Be careful as most...

    Need opinion and suggestions Quarantine Tank

    Dr Jim does have some alternate medications for sale I believe. Could give it a try. I didn't use copper in mine I went with salinity. For me it worked.

    Closed loop in an overflow???

    If it works how about using black plastic and making a nice neat cover for it?

    Need opinion and suggestions Quarantine Tank

    I used a 24G AP for my QT, kept a naso and hippo tang for about 6 weeks I think no issues...I provided some PVC pipes for hiding spots and did very frequent water changes, about every other day. I would say you really have to keep up with that in a smaller tank. If you can add some sort of...

    Best place to get a custom sump

    You can try Shan, website below. He built my sump and skimmer. It was pretty reasonable. Can do custom work which I guess you will need. http://www.theaquariumgroup.net/shopping.asp?key=&pg=2&id=459793&saleid=&shopperid=113190&merchantid=459793&catid=1901&shop=itemlist.asp

    Need help figuring this out.

    What are you using for thermometer? I ask because I had one of those cheap electric ones and it was waaaayyyy off. Caused some of your problems, and even this summer my tank got a bit to warm and got some of those same problems.

    suggestions on t5 fixture

    I have used UVL bulbs mostly. I did add one 460nm blue bulb gives great color, par stinks from what I was able to research, it is a coralife bulb, but I have a Ice Cap deepwater to swap it out with eventually. A lot of folks love the ATI bulbs. I think it is really all preference though the...

    ATO

    I have used an aqualifter....I have only a half run as I have a crawlspace next to the tank...split level. I understand they are not super reliable, I have had it running about 6 months with no issues. If I have to swap it out every year or so no big deal they are pretty cheap. I am running mine...

    Who is keeping SPS under T5

    I have 120 G 4x2x2 about 20 inches to the bottom. I have complete mixed reef under 8x54W. Suggestion...you can keep the bulbs that it comes with and rotate them through as replacement bulbs. So that eventually you use them all. That is what I did with mine. I had 4X10K and 4Xactinic to start...
