Some plans

Some of the plans in this threads are for fresh water aquariums; but the principles are the same for their constructions. Types of glue, silicones, concrete, epoxy. Its the ideals and concept you have to look at; you just substitute, ordinary rock for live rock , roots for pegged rocks or acrylic rods for towers and plants by algae. This is for private messages about this being a SWT site .

Here's some more fresh ideals, just convert to salt water condition and you'll be fine.

Re: RockWork Now THAT is a cool idea __________________ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Live Rock Rubble will do the SAME thing as Bio-Balls and is NOT a suitable replacement for BIO-BALLS in a Reef System! It's ALL gotta go!!* Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change. Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian) This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%. Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!* Big Al's 10g Julie's (BigAl's Gal) 6g NanoCube Gone but not forgotten BigAl's Slow 90g Tank Chronicle Allens OFFICE 12g Nano-Reef
