Wow just got the tank up and no power...good news is the flood test passed :o probably not the smartest way to find out if it would be OK. Everyting looks OK I didn't loose much heat.

Wow very nice..looks like everything is coming back well.

I cannot tell is there space for the water to "flow" over the lip of the overflow or are you doing it some other way?

It is a T valve that mechanically opens and closes one side to the other. Gives you alternating movement. http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=SQUID-WM&Category_Code=Wavemaking You might find a Sea Swirl cheaper used or in our group buy deduct 15%...

Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input. Here are some pictures from yesterday. Was cool I got to see Phils tank last night and his setup.  Next on my list is to put my top off water in the crawl space.  Next month going to go ATO. Does anyone have a water change pump hooked up...

Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input. I wondered where I came up with the idea that we were talking about last night. Your daughter is very cute it was nice to meet your family.

Very nice job!!! Looks great for first or 50th build. Just as a suggestion (though I don't think it is super cheap) There is a rotating return valve that attatches to the tank. It was suggested to me but didn't work on my tank. Here is the quote. Could be great for you though with your build...

I threw that disclaimer in because I have "read" they are more reasonable...and I was sure someone was going to call me to the mat on that. I wouldn't do it personally because like you I have my little bi-color devil still. There is a reason why he is my oldest fish.

The family is best left alone.(I know there are couple exceptions..orchid) I will say they are hardy as all get out. But mine has killed more then it's fair share of tankmates from inverts to smaller fish. Never again. Upside was in the transfer to larger tank it became less troublesome. I don't...

Re: Here's my 120 Wow that is a lot of crap...better you then me ..but I mean that with all due respect because for sure if all that happened to me I would have a 120 gallons of disaster. Sounds like you pulled back from the brink of disaster. Experience really counts obviously.

If you can reduce the amount of dissolved organics you will "reduce" the amount of nuisances as far as algae and diatoms go. But as Phyl said get used to it because you will always have something to do.

Hello welcome to NJRC. So far some good advice. Try to forget the flame scallop, you can feed them but they do not survive well at all in our tanks and we are trying to save reefs not lose them. That can segue to banggai cardinal fish, they are rapidly becoming endangered and it is due to us, so...

Re: AGA 120 (very few pictures and lots of dull writing) Haven't seen it yet. I have a few little ones and one good sized one haven't seen any problems so far. Both tangs are becoming more and more social, naso is just about eating out of my hand again. Glad to hear about your sand...you would...

Re: AGA 120 (very few pictures and lots of dull writing) Well they have quickly become my favorite fish if you couldn't tell. ;) But I hear you on the poop thing I was fairly (no super impressed) by the size the poop from the Naso. OK will redirect the subject a bit. Maybe a Kole or Tomini for...

Cool Scooter pic, some other nice corals too.

Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input. No that was exactly what I was doing :P But I gave another option. The tangs are pretty calm .. really getting better day by day. It is really pretty cool how they stay together a lot. The fish are all more or less the same temperament...not to...

Re: AGA 120 (very few pictures and lots of dull writing) No tang??!?!?! pnoy's fish are outstanding if I hit the lotto we can try to match it :D Still it is a pretty cool list. How soon are you going to start buying fish?

Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input. Or the end of the post. I do have some pics of the QT it was my AP in the crawlspace. They did pretty well. Naso not at all actually is not as friendly yet as he was in the QT would swim around my arm when it happened to be in the tank, eat out...
