    Thought & opinions please, re: filtering

    So I have a 30g IM nuvo, dual overflows. Behind each overflow is a media basket with floss. SPS dominant, lots of fish (9 tangs or something like that). Both overflows catch a decent amount of detritus and floss is changed every 3-4 days when mildly browned. I have a Tunze 9004 which will fit in...

    Jebao SLW-20s?

    Well, my Tunze finally dies in my 30g after 4+ years of use (and a week after I purchased a night controller cable for it for $40, figures). In looking for a low profile, quiet, effective, non-ridiculous priced, nano water mover I found a few options. I'm leaning towards 2 of the Jebao SLW-20s...

    We are bouncing, help solicited.

    DMV - this is ridiculous

    Yesterday I went to register a trailer I built. Was told there were no more 'tickets (eg appointments)' for the day, I'd have to come back Monday. Apparently, they begin distributing appointments at 6am, but they advised I arrive between 4:30 and 5am to get in line as getting there at 5:30am...

    Anyone invest in stocks?

    FYI both Tesla and Apple are splitting before the end of the month. Looks like they’re both doing a 5:1.

    Generator help

    Never having owned a generator I’ve been looking into them and am down to 2 choices. Both are 4,000w give or take. One is a standard portable, the other an inverter. I’ll be running, at most, a fridge/freezer, a small tank pump, and maybe 2 box fans. I like the idea of the inverter as it’s...

    ID please

    Picked up a rock as a frag win last year. Think it came from Battle Corals and had a single mushroom on it. Well, it liked my tank, a lot, and now I have a few dozen. Anyone have a clue what this is? They’re a beautiful green and gold with pink and purple skirts and small pink arms.

    Anyone try a 'black box chiller'?

    I know there are a number of Chinese black box lights out there that do well. Anyone hear anything about the Chinese chillers? They're running about 1/4 of the price, which means I'd usually stay away, but wondering if there are any that end up being worthwhile.

    So, the IM 30g reef is on its way, and I need a lighting solution. Mixed reef, ony 18-20" deep, 36" length.
