    Turf Scrubber

    I would be interested to hear if any of you folks are using a turf scrubber on your tanks. If so, for how long, how it's working, if you find it equal or superior to a fuge, and anything else noteworthy. I am considering adding one to my 200 gallon reef but would like to hear your opinions first.

    Can you ID this?

    It has been slowly growing in my tank for almost 3 years. It is one of my favorite items but I have no idea what it is. The photo is a bit dark but it is kind of a purplish color. It is about 2 1/2" in diameter.

    Need Ballast wiring diagram

    I purchased a used ARO 60-6005 ballast with two tubes and endcaps. The harness had been hacked and endcaps for tubes 1 & 4 plus the harness plug were chopped off and removed. I was wondering if anyone had the wiring diagram. I contacted Adam at Hellolights and he politely told me that they...

    What sand sifting goby would you recommend?

    I've not had much luck with orangespot diamond gobys, nor has my friend. They seem to like to carpet surf. I've got a dragon goby but he seems to stay in one place and is basically lazy. Who's using what and how is it working?

The thing That I find puzzling is that he has eggcrate over his tank and a top over the eggcrate. I'm wondering if this is just an isolated incident or if others are having trouble keeping...

    Aiptasia/Bristleworm/Algae/Nitrate problem

    The live rock that I got last weekend was so covered with aiptasia that it was impossible to see the extent of the bristleworm population and the lush growth of algae on the rock. It's/thery're everywhere! This was what I discovered after my first application of Kalk paste. Since there are...

    FS: 75 gallon tank stand and hood

    This is a used 75 gallon tank with heavy pine stand and hood. Black silicon seams, twin glass covers with two 48” strip lights. The only reason I’m selling it is because the tank is too long to fit where I wanted it in my office. It is in excellent condition and was set up as a salt water...

    How about a Big Tank forum

    Maybe for 180 gallons and up? The logo could be a shark driving a M1A1 Tank with the word BIG above it. We could talk about related items such as mixing replacement water in the bathtub. How many risers to have on your skimmer. Is a Dart to small, a Hammerhead too big? Dosing by the gallon...

    How much PAR is too much?

    I know that this may be a controversial subject but I'm wondering how much PAR does my tank really need and can I over do it? I'm currently running four 250W 14 K Hamiltons on M58 ballasts. From what I've been able to determine, each bulb is producing just a touch over 200 PAR. That is a far cry...
