Looking for good quality unit but only need about 20 gallons per week. Any suggetsions? Tired of going to the LFS for water. :hammerhea

Hello All, I used to be a steady fixture around here once the site got started and unfortunately had to take down my tank with a house move. A couple years have gone by and I am finally getting things back together. So far I have my sand bed in place, some base live rock to help get...

Does your LFS supply premixed RO Salt water? If so, how much do they charge a gallon/liter? Mine charges .35¢ per gallon for RO water and $1.19 per gallon for premix RO Saltwater.

Thought I would put out a thought for comments after reading ScottT1980's silicone post: You often can find products that you would traditionally find at your LFS at other stores such as Home Depot or Amazon.com that are drastically cheaper. With just about everything being available...

I have a "reef ready" tank (meaning it has a box built into the tank for overflow) and am having an issue with surface water draining. If you have ever looked at the surface water in your tank (from below), and have seen the floating stuff, this is what I am talking about. The power head...

I woud like to see some pictures of peoples tanks that are drilled to see what different configurations there are. Specifically, where are the holes in relation to the water line. Thanks for anyone who has a picture that would show your drilled tank!

There was a discussion the other day regarding cleaning out sumps. For the life of me I can't find the thread, call me stupid (as several people around the world call me stupid). I am curious what pump was recommended for the use of sucking out the crud from the sump. Any one know the...

I think this post got lost n another thread, so here it is. Can you guys give me an idea of what amount of lighting you use over your refugium? Not the amount of time, but the type of lighting and possibly watts. I know this is kinda a loaded question since some of it may be determined...

Has anyone used Chemi-Pure from Boyd?

I'm trying to get my christmas list together and was wondering how many of you have a moonlight. If you have one, which one?

For those of you who use phytoplankton or other coral/invert food: What brand /type do you use and How often do you use it Thanks!

I have a CC covered with sand bottom, and I frequesntly have to stir up the sand due to a brown algea growing on it. I just purchased a sand-sifting star to help with this. After looking at the pictures of everyones nice white sand bottoms, I ask myself what am I doing wrong? Any ideas?

I would say someone is working on the site right now, either that or I should quit drinking

After reading through NaH2O's macroalgea thread, I am starting to think about building a refugium again. I currently have a 58G tank with a 20G sump (with CC and LR) and don't know if I have to add a seperate refugium or can I convert my sump. Could you possibly post some pics of your...

One of my clowns thinks the new Hammer is it's host. Do you think it will hurt the hammer? He treats it just like an anemone.

I have a stable tank with shrooms, all sorts of zoos and misc stuff. I am thinking about taking the next step into SPS. Can anyone offer advice or a link to provide me with info on requirements and care? Thanks

My system seems very healthy, and all parameters (ph, phosphate, nitrate, nitrite, Ammonia) are near perfect if not perfect. I am dosing with Stronium and Molybdenum about once a week currently. My calcium levels are off the charts (my test only goes up to 450 and mine is somewhat higher...

I don't know if this is an anemone or what. It was a hitchhiker on a coral I bought, and has since moved around my tank. At night it curls up inside of itself and becomes a small ball. When the lights come on, it quickly unfolds. When unfolded it is about three inches long.
