Welcome to living reefs! A lot of knowledge on here for beginners. Take full advantage, ask questions and make sure you post lots and lots of pics... We all like pics :D

Tifoez, I believe what you're looking for is the VorTech quiet drive pumps. 2 or 3 mp10's would probably give you sufficient flow as they are adjustable and quite effective if you Hooke them up together on a wave maker

Agreed. We all love pics :D

+1 Becky It's not an easy repair, and even if you do get a good seal, I would be worried about the stability of the tank

Welcome to Living Reefs! Tank looks awesome how long have you been reeling?

Alright... So this is a loaded question as we don't have many details yet. What's your lighting look like? Flow? Readings? What kind of test kits are you using and how old are they? How big is your tank? If you can supply that info, we can all have a better understanding of what's going on :)

Welcome to Living Reefs! Tank looks great! I don't thing the lights will be overkill, just acclimate any corals you add slowly. Start at the bottom and work your way up. Don't want to put them through light shock

Hey all, I was hoping someone could help me Id this. It came in on a rock that I inherited from another tank. There were several little patches, but this is the only one that has greened up and looks like its starting to grow...

Can anyone explain the difference between the three light ratings? Basically, I understand the blue spectrum becomes a little more prevalent as the rating gets higher. But in regards to coral growth vs show lighting, any preferences/proven knowledge that you guys would be able to pass on? I'd...

Hey guys. I have a question for all you lighting experts out there. I recently aquired a 120 gallon tall tank (48L x 18D x 32T). I want to turn this into a reef, but with that kind of depth, keeping coral (softies, and lps and sps) is probably going to be an issue. Any suggestions?

It was well taken care of in my friends tank. Any body reccomend how I can keep this coral alive and make it thrive?
