Re: cioutlaws 120gal.

I have added a mag9 pump I had laying around dedicated to the Wavysea. It is better but still think it needs more flow in my tank. Any suggestions for a closed loop pump that flows between 1000-1200GPH? The Wavysea is an awsome piece...working very nicely so far.

I also reconfigured my return loop set up & like it much better. Overflows to the right & (2) 3/4" returns at the left.

Re: cioutlaws 120gal.

Looks a little bleached or faded, what color is the foot? Any chance of a clearer close up of the anemone?

Re: cioutlaws 120gal.

Splendid, absolutely splendid. I recently cleaned my 75 and it took about...all freaking day. Took everything out and I mean everything...I had to move the tank from where it was to about 10 feet to the left. (Wives) But now that its over I have no regrets. The stand is great, I tried a DIY stand and while it holds just fine it is just plain ugly. I wish I had wood working Skills. Mines just 2 by 4's and ply wood.

The main goal is to hold the tank up...so you did good

Re: cioutlaws 120gal.

cioutlaw since the Sebae is apparently dyed I would feed it regularly a couple of times a week because it may lose it's photosynthetic ability. If it won't take small pieces of shrimp, krill, scallop etc. then try some of the dissolved foods for filter feeders. Do you have any clownfish being hosted by the anemone ?
