You should get a couple nice schooling fish that will swim on the upper part of the tank like a couple cardinals or something. You have done a nice job filling in what structure you have, it is different but it grows on you. ;)

Welcome aboard the 24G AP train. What other tanks do you have? Don't tease us with half information like that ;). Everything looks great, where did you get the other rock? Are the corals from your other tank.

Wow that looks really great. Nice job. You don't like Phos at all I guess?

BTW are you running it on a reverse light cycle. I understand it helps with PH fluctuations. I have mine that way with the timer. Works pretty well.

Yep I have done some of that. I removed all the stock crap in the back put in live rock at the bottom, closed all but the top overflow to surface skim better, put floss in the front half and with eggcrate created a split in the chamber with macro in the back...with LED bar. It has worked well...

I have considered a couple different mods including some DIY stuff. Even going with LED lights just keep heat down. I honestly have done OK with LPS and softies so not sure I really see the need at this point. I am not sure SPS is in the cards for me for this tank at least so thinking to just...

Cool so you are just going to swap hoods then for their modified one?

Don't think it works the way you are suggesting. If you have a bulb that gives off a wavelength of 20K and a bulb that gives off 10K you don't average them. They would both continue to give off their individual wavelengh but you would have both wavelenghts hitting your tank. So the 20K would...

Welcome ...see you have two tanks what is your plan for the pair?

Great new corals. You are still lucky with your anemone. I put mine in what I thought would be the perfect place he proceeded to tour the tank till he settled down with his A$$ in my face. I understand you are not supposed to move them so since he is happy I leave him alone.

Heaters are like opionions everyone has one and they are all different. I think the days of duel heaters are bit past. First most heaters now break in the off position. If you notice your temp going lower you will usually be able to run to Walmart for a replacement(not saying you should shop at...

Small more frequent water changes are better. I coppied the below piece from Mynd's tale in the nano section. Don't know if it is true but for sure everything I have read the more frequent the water changes the better. Better to do 10% a week then 20% a month. Go do your water change and quiet...

Thats nothing LOL ;D you're looking good.  Just do water changes and work on getting your calc up. 

You could stand some more calcium. My GSP like flow have you changed that at all? Turbo are very good. I think naturally you lose some snails over time....as I understand it the warmer the water the higher metabolism/shorter life of the snail. I would replace the carbon and get a phos...

Very good idea. I change my carbon every couple of weeks and my phos remover every couple of months....reminds me it is about time for that too thanks :). I like a diverse bunch for the CUC...snails just get what mix you like I think..turbos are great and last but they all perform some function...

No probably not in the end. I am pretty new really so don't take it as a flame attempt. If anything I was just wondering because I have a few, plan on getting some peppermint shrimp this weekend and just hope they get them before my pseudocromis gets them ::)...I sort of wondered what all the...

Very nice tank(s) ... what do you feed the gorgonians? Do you have any problems with algae accumulation on them, it is sort of driving me nuts? I hope someday to be able to do what you have done super job.

I really like your tank, but are those aiptasia anemones in the pictures?  Do you have problems with them?  It sure doesn't look like it but you read everywhere they are evil and bad.

I think Phyl has given great advice. I love my frogspawn, ironically I have a leather next to it. I have not had any problems...I have been watching for any problems but since the frag swap both have done well, I have been carefull to leave room between them though. I have had some new mouths on...

Hey buddy looking good. I need to get buy see what your tanks looks like in person. I am really curious what it would look like under normal light. Just back from vacation so let me know.
