i try not to get caught up my the true and false thing; there is only one Amphiprion Percula. the "false" one is actually Amphiprion Ocellaris identified as biffer stated.

this looks exactly like the stuff i have growing. its a fairly new tank and and i just got rid of the diatoms about two weeks ago... now i have this crap :frustrat: i have a couple of nassas and a rabitfish that pick at it but it doesn't help much. this weekend i aimed the returns down toward...

i bought one of these the about two weeks ago thinking it would help out with the nitrates but it's shrinking and i still have like 20-30ppm nitrates. i figured it was my fail lighting...

whats the flow rate at 4' on the sumbmersible pump ?

thanx for the replies. i've decided to go with the remora pro also; it should do well till my DIY sump/fuge is ready. I'm planning around an Aqua C EV-120 for it :bounce:

planning on getting on of these this week was wondering if anyone has experience with it. coralife seems to have a good rep but it's so much cheaper than others that it makes me wonder about it..

Thanks for the links biffer, it made for some good reading. I actually stopped by the lfs on my way home today to talk about flow and filtration. I initially read that your filtration should flow about 6x and that 2 filters would be better because you could alternate changing the medium in them...

this is great news to me as i'm planning on buyin a protien skimmer from them :)

just checking to say hi. i'm finally taking the plunge into a hobby i've been facinated by for a long time. it sure is breaking the bank getting started but i still cant wait to get this thing going !
