Will this be too overkill for my nano? I have a 30 gallon (actual water volume) that is SPS dominated with a few LPS. I currently have three fish (clown x2 and a six line) and I'm thinking about getting one more fish if I get a bigger skimmer. The system has a fuge, GFO reactor, and a...

I would like to start off by saying I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but I honestly don't know where to ask this. Does anyone know the customer support number of Current USA? I'm wanting to drill my Aquapod 24 and wanted to call in and ask if the back glass panel is safe...

I have a pair of Ecoxotic 453nm blue stunner strips with a single power supply. These were only used for a few weeks before I switched from halides to LEDs, they are in prefect working condition. $90+shipping for the two stunner strips and the power supply PM me for faster responses

Well the title says it all. I'm not entirely sure how calcium reactors work, I've read several articles on them and still don't completely understand. My main questions are: Does the calcium reactor just add the set amount of Ca per day or does it adjust to maintain set levels? Do you have to...

Well I picked up a nice size piece of ORA hawkin's echinata and its turning white. Its in my 24 gallon SPS nano. I placed it at the top of my rock work because the sand bed is occupied with some scolys and I don't want it to get stung. I believe its turning white because of the tank...

This is my relatively young SPS dominated aquapod 24. It has been set up since early this year, but wasn't originally a SPS tank. Livestock 1 ORA simi-picasso clown and 1 grade A picasso from Doni 1 sixline wrasse 1 cleaner shrimp 2 sexy shrimp GBTA has been removed since pictures were taken...

Well my sexy shrimp spawned last night and I was able to catch the larvae using airline tubing and a light. They are now in a five gallon tank inside a 10 gallon tank. (10 gallon is filled with tap water and a heater to keep the temp stable) This kind of caught me off guard and I didn't have...

Well I got this pump used a while ago and just recently upgraded it to a MP10w ES so that I could take advantage of the wireless feature. I've had my two MP10w ES's running for a a week or less now and the old MP10's dry side is making a grinding noise when it revs up. The new MP10 is...

I just picked up two MP10w ES's and I need help figuring out how to set them so that one is on when the other is off to create a nice wave in my tank. I wirelessly synced them but that only made them do the same thing at the sime time. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Keith

I've narrowed my options down to two fixtures. One is the MaxSpect G2 160 watt fixture and the other is the Aqua Illumination Sol with controller. MaxSpect G2 160w Aquarium Specialty Aqua Illumination Sol 12" SOL 1 Module LED Lighting System Now I am considering the BoostLED fixture...

Saw this at an out of town LFS and wondered what it was. Employee told me it was a carpet anemone, but its pretty small (like 6" across) and it has a pink tint around the edges in person. It also has purple dots just under the tentacles. Is it just bleached? What do you guys think? It was...

I've had this for a while and have been meaning to call JBJ about a problem I have been having but I always forget to call when they are available. Anyways theres nothing wrong with the system, its just the 2 minute cut off to avoid it pumping in too much water. The return chamber in my sump...

Well I would like to get one of these little guys for my 24 gallon but it would, of corse, need to readily accept prepared foods. The only thing holding me back besides the fact that no LFS around me has them is that I've read some reports about them refusing prepared foods once in the...

I just bought a new calcium additive and the directions are confusing me so I thought I would just ask. The back of the bottle says "Directions: Beginner: Use one inner capful (7mL) for every 100L (25 gallons) twice a week. Check calcium once a week and adjust amount or frequency...

Well I just thought I would let everyone know that Ecoxotic has amazing customer service. I had a defective power supply for my stunner strip that prevented the LEDs from functioning at full power. I emailed Ecoxotic and they promptly emailed me back telling my what they could do for me. I...

Not much more to say than what the title says. I got this with an aquapod setup a while ago and its a great little fixture, just not strong enough for my BTA . Thats the only reason I'm selling this. I just bought a 150 watt sunpod for the tank and I have no need for this once the new light...

for a long time now i have been testing my calcium and adding a calcium additive accordingly, which is always about the same amount each day. Well about two days ago the calcium test read 460 ppm a day after the last calcium additive had been added. it usually drops from 460 ppm to 430 ppm in...

I have a 20" 70 watt sun pod and would like to get a little more light for my tank. I am looking to buy a 24" 150 watt sunpod but it will hang over the sides a little more than I would like. Can I swap the 24" 150 watt sunpod internals and put them in the 20" sunpod housing? I know I'm making...

My LFS uses some type of poly-fil as a filter media in their tanks and I wanted to try it for myself. Anyone have any concerns about this? It just the normal 100% premium polyester fiber fill pillow stuffing that can be found at Wal-Mart in the fabric section. The only part that worries me is...

I have a pair of sexy shrimp in one of my tanks and the female appears to be carrying eggs. :) I don't know how long she has had the eggs so I am unsure when to expect the eggs. Any advice for a set up to raise the shrimp would be nice. And if anyone has any other information they would like...
