I've had a pretty decent sps dominated tank for about three years now, never had a wave maker. point the powerheads at the corners, at each other, etc. you'll get a random flow pattern. I will say that i would have blown you budget on 1/2 of a light fixture for my 55 gal tank. look for some...

congrats on the new place. I have lots of cool frags now, so if you want something to get the new tank started in a while, let me know. I'd love to demo an led fixture too. Read as, it would sure be swell if you gave me an led fixture!:look: bill

I've found duncans to do well in a lot of current as well. dendrophyllia does good, or tubastrea. Most sps, but if your lights aren't that strong, then you k, now that won't be a good solution. how about a monitpora digiata? I would consider that to be a moderate light sps, or a poccilapora...

could you post some pics of the pink lemonade, undatas, and the setosa? thanks, bill

It would be cool initially, but I think corraline would take over, and it would look like all the other shells.

I'd go with the acans. feed them well, grow them big, then chop em up and trade them for more.

offensive to the white girls, or the nba players?

I've seen euphillias (hammers, torches, bubbles, etc.) in all different lighting conditions. I'd say don't blast it with a power head, but rather a gentle current spot is what you are looking for. try to avoid moving it all over the place, give it a spot and leave it alone. If in a month or...

aside from posting my pic here, what do I have to do to enter the contest. I did this a while back, but my pic didn't make the contest. thanks, bill

with the reflection on top, I think you see more of the tank than you would with a head on shot.

I've never cleaned my "u" tube, but I've decided when the time comes, and it'll be pretty soon, I'm just gonna buy a new one. you can try wiggling the drain around in a few spots and breaking any possible blockage out. if you ever do it again use valve and unions, that way you can take it...

snappy, I'd love to stop by your house some night with a bottle of whiskey and some pruning shears. believe or not, that same sentence is the one that won my wife's heart. bill

the leather, bubble, and sun coral all look like they will be fine to me. 3 rics all the same color is pretty lame. make sure you feed that tubastrea often, I feed mine every other day, every two days max. if you don't, it will die quickly.

i like it. i think I saw a few pics of a borealis frag, have you found it to be a slower grower than other acros? mine is healthy and vibrant, but has grown almost none in a yr. bill

there isn't enough dough in the world to negate the emotional trial onset by the proximity of these corals.

I hate christmas and have been thinking about chiseling one of these corals off and separating them cuz every time I look in the tank I think of the dreaded holy day.

:away:

a note on phyto. if you use fresh, single species phyto, you can't add too much. live, fresh, healthy phyto is a good thing, especially for a tank housing a mandarin.

changing just one bulb in the set will make a difference in the appearance of the aquarium. even changing the order of the bulbs will give a different effect. If you have a local club, I'd get in contact with them and see if you could borrow a selection of bulbs and mix and match until find an...
