Also, what would you recommend for powerheads?

maxijets very reliable and inexpensive especially on-line.

I would like to know why you prefer the aragonite over the crushed coral?

Fina aragonite provides a large surface area for bacteria and if deep enough will provide zones for anaerobic bacteria which will convert nitrates into harmless nitrogen gas.

Chandria IMO get the aqua c remora for just a few dollars more you won't regret it.

Thanks again, yes I am off to a good start here. I am finalizing my list right now and ordering all the equipment this coming up week.

I am having trouble finding a black canopy for a 46 gallon bow. I have searched and keep finding a regular hood sitting on top of the glass.

Any suggestions without having to do a custom design?

Here is the link to the stand I am thinking of:

Thanks

Chandria I would check if Oceanic or AGA sells a canopy for the 46.

For the last hour I have been checking out sites and still nothing. It's like they left out the 46 gallon bow front from the canopy club.

Any suggestions?
