I have that set up in my 250 rsm. I just had to scrape of some of the black paint off the back so that it will work. I just used a new razer blade and cleaned a area just big enough for the sensor.

I picked up some more rock from someone braking down there tank. A few new coral came with it and a sea urchin. Also added the new power head. Now have to get a wave maker control. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I added this guy on sunday to help clean up the sand bed. Still thinking of adding a little more live rock. Not sure how much I should have. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I have been thinking of getting the spin stream because the water pressure keeps messing with my sand. I will definitely get one now. I will have to wait a little before I get the power heads. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

Hi all I am new to the forum and the hobby. I have had a fresh water tank for many years but this is my first sw tank. So I picked up this tank 3 weeks ago 2 hours away from my house. The tank was badly neglected. High salt level, low water level, protein skimmer had not bean running in some...

I also moved the water with the tank. For the first week I did water changes every other day just to clear it out and try to get everything stable. It has worked just the nitrates are high now. Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

I will definitely start a take over/revive. Thread. That will be my next step. This is my first sw tank I have had a fresh water tank for 10 years and my friend got me into sw tanks. He has been doing tanks for 12 years. So he is my right hand man when it comes to my tank right now. I picked...
