Ok guys, I need some help. Let me shed some light on it, I have been using AF probiotic salt since the start of this tank, 11 of March it started cycling. I have been using Np Pro and Pro bio S for no3/po4 reduction (ULNS) system.. I thought that WC 10% every other week would be sufficient. I...

So I`ve been kinda lazy and doing a ton of other stuff around the house and outside.. Summer is coming WOHO.. But the tank is doing great, I was afraid that not having the lights over the new tank during the cycle would spring a new algae outbreak when added but fortunate enough it was kinda...

This is just awesome :D I bow down for what U have accomplished :)

Nice start U are onto :) But like @mr_tap_water says, one of the best buys we can do is a refractometer for testing. And when u get to put your live rock in be sure to have it sitting properly on the glass and not the sandbed. If u are getting sandsifting fish, or shrimps that live in symbiosis...

Wow! Great looking tank. Dunno how I could have missed this thread :/ How are those angels with your corals, the regal and the majestic? Awesome coloration. Thumbs up :D

Soooo, while the tank cycles I got a good amount of time looking for what fishies I want in my tank. Almost all the fish in the old tank will join the new, I`ll write up my list for you too see. Wish Fishlist: Yellow Pyramid Butterflyfish x 2-3 / Hemitaurichthys polylepis Watanabei Angelfish...

So here goes, I'm setting up a new tank. Woho The tank itself is a Aqua Medic Anthias 160. 160x67x70 - 750l I made it black and did new plumbing on it. Originally it came with 1 drain and 1 return, Im running Herbie style overflow, so I had to make 1 more for emergency. I drilled out the 25mm...

@DaveK, you sir are a guru :D I will be going with ABS bulkhead as that`s what`s been used originally from Aqua Medic, I´ve removed the overflow box and the existing fittings so its only glass on both holes as of now. Gonna put in new bulkheads on both when I get the drilling done. Need to buy...

I've been speaking to aqua medic and the tank is not tempered. And originally it's not even set up as a durso, more like a trickle filter. Overflow filled with bioballs, same in the sump. That's why it only had a strainer at the bottom. I'm going to cut the overflow box out, remove the...

Thanks a lot @DaveK for that writeup, really helps a newbie. So U reckon I would be fine with just running it like it sits now? 1.5" as drain and 1" for return/supply? As a durso standpipe/stockman or something in that lane. I`ve read alot about people having trouble to get it quiet enough, the...

Hey guys. I'm in the process of getting pvc for my new build. It's a aqua medic anthias 160. Today it got 1.5" drainpipe, think it was used for a durso, it only came with a strainer all the way down in the overflow box near the bulkhead. It might been removed, dunno. And a 1" for return.. I...

Wow, I havent been on here for ages. Im still about though ppl, tank is doing good. Switced my salt and dosing accesories to Aquaforest earlier this year, and I gotta say. This stuff is awesome. I also use Seachem matrix. Giving me more place for bacteria too grow on ;) The 250 is going down...

Hows thing`s going Joey? Pictures please ;)

Great read as always, man I cant belive the colours U get ;) They are insane. How do U plan running your matrix ? I just got myself 1l and poured it in where the intank mediarack was on my rsm250...Huge mistake?

Wow a truly stellar tank, ive read it before but it still amazes me. I just got some Matrix for my tank, struggling with some no3, due to a high bioload. I used to run a mediarack, but its gone now. Do I need to run the matrix in a bag? Or can I just dump it where the mediarack was before? Im...
