I have two Koralia 3 pumps in my 75g plus the return. I like the flow now very much. Initially had two Koralia 4 pumps but was way to much for the softies and frogspawn.
I'm not sure but I think the deeper the sand the bed the closer the coral will be to the light. A 4" sand bed would bring everything closer compared to a 1/2" sand bed or bare bottom.
Roy,
Triggers aren't reef safe. The closet you can get is a pink tail trigger. They are reef compatible with caution. This what I have read to date, not an expert on triggers.

I think the more important concern is the bow. If its big. I had a 35g fresh water tank that was not level on 1 side; off about 3/4". I used cardboard and it compressed over time. I had to drain the tank half way. Then I lifted it while my dad put shims under it. That all happend in years time...
1) I want add some color to my tank was thinking of getting a red gorgonian. Does any have experience with this coral? Is hard to care for, lighting, feeding, etc?
2) I have a minor amount of cyano on my sand right up front. I hate to stir up my sand. The cause is mostly because of some food I...
I agree a swing arm is usually off. I compared my swing arm to my refractometer and to figure this out. The swing arm would read 1.024 and the refractometer had 1.028. I would bring teh water sample some where to be tested.
I agree leave it be for a while. I hate the right side of tank as well. But over time it grew on me and now i don't mind it so much. But I am alwys looking for a way to chnage it. If you need a hand let me know as I am a few towns over.
I bought a small flower anemone on Saturday, about 2" diameter. It hasn't attached it self to any rock or sand. It does open up when placed upright. Because it's not attached to anything I keep finding it upside and have to right it. I placed rubble rock around it but no good. Any suggestions...
All,
Thanks for the replies and link. Although, they are cheap and nice looking I won't be getting one. I have to many gobies, very shallow sand bed and my tank is 75g while min is 100g.
