    Powder Blue Tang vs. Melanurus Wrasse

    A 3" melanarus wrasse jumped from an acclimation box after a day when I left the cover off. In the 120g tank that it jumped into is a 2" PBT that continuously chases the wrasse back into hiding when/if it comes out. The tang has been in the tank for about 2 months along with a yellow tang(added...

    Koralia 12v

    I've decided to install a Hydor Korilia Wavemaker in my 150g reef aquarium. My question is, what 12 volt pump model is recommended on each side if placed in the upper, rear corners of a 4' x 2' x 2' tank full of live rock and mostly soft and LPS corals? (Hydor Koralia 5, 6, 7, or 8)

    return anti-siphon hole

    I just finished setting up a single overflow 150G tank with a 900GPH sump return pump. I got lazy and bought a AGA Mega Flow overflow kit with the loud anti-siphon hole in the 90 degree elbow. Can I drill a new hole in the pipe below the tank waterline and/or overflow waterline, and plug the...

    Current Outer Orbit wattage upgrade

    I have an Outer Orbit hanging light fixture from Current. The 150w MH bulb just isn't bright enough anymore so I'm thinking about changing the ballast to a 250 watt. Can I do this by just replacing it and the bulb, or does the fixture and/or other parts need to be replaced as well?

    yellow colony polyp overtake

    How can I get rid of some parazoanthus gracilis' or yellow colony polyps? They used to look nice about 7 or 8 years ago, but they've slowly taken over about half of the rocks in the tank. I've stacked and laid many different things over top of them and spent hours with knifes and tweezers...
