Well I know this is a SW web site but I`ll take advantage of the FW section. To get the ball rolling we`ll start with general discussion. I hope this Works out.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I'll make the whole damn world jealous if given the money to do so.


Don't make mistakes and learn from them, read and learn how to avoid mistakes.

Re: General discussion

This is my 29 gallon AG. I have the stock hood but I rewired light added a bulb, new ballast. Now puts out an estimated 37watt. Run it with fan for 10.5 hours a day. I have DIY CO2, and air runs for 4 hours a night. I don`t have much in the way of fish because As they die of old age ( 6-15 years depending on species) I don`t replace them as all my money is going to the reef. I have a AC200 as far as filtration goes. Feel free to ask questions. So what Do you all have?
