Hard to tell, could it be Halimedia algae?

My new top off tank. It will be placed beside the Aquarium.

I really like the magnet idea myself. That's a great idea. As far as doors go, I would make a simple framed square, and get a piece of smoked acrylic for the middle. Would look sweet.

Stand is starting to look really nice.

Nice looking fish. They look happy.

Going with 2 150w metal halides. I'm still collecting parts for the build. I just got my Hydor ATO today. Still trying to determine a what pump to use. Might go with a DC pump for the adj. flow.

So, I'm going with the bean animal overflow. I used 3/4 pvc pipe. Just wondering how I determine what the flow rate should be for my return pump. Any help would be awesome!

They are bristle worms. No need to worry.

Is it a astrea starfish?

Kilz works to make mold on stuff paintable. The best thing you can do is add a computer fan or 2 to help air exchange. If it can't breath it will mold. I found out the hard way. Made a new one with a fan on one side and an exit plate on the other end. Good luck.

Here is the start, spend the last 3 days putting most of it together. The strips of paper on the back are for the overflow. I want to paint it first then add the overflow. I will add a center brace. Still trying to figure out what I want it to look like.

I have a bean animal question, Do you have to use sanitary wye fittings, or can I use a standard T fittings?

Welcome James hope you like it here.

Thanks Anthony. When the time comes I will put them in all at once. May I ask how many you kept at once? I'm o.k. with just having gobies. Just want to keep it simple. Are they are a hardy species?

Yes, I can't wait to have a fuge. I will go with you guys, and say "no" to the dsb. I will look into that ato system also. I am hoping my acrylic for the tank will be here soon. Think I am going with two 150w halides for lighting. I have been reading a lot about led systems, but I don't think...

Thank you everyone.

You were right, I checked a aquarium calculator, and it turns out to be 25 gallons. Everything I read said, " Mutiple individuals may be kept together in the same aquarium." I have never kept these so I really don't know that much about them, other than what I have found on the net. I looked...

First off, I just got done ordering acrylic for a new tank I want to build. It's dimensions are going to be 48" long by 11" wide. Seems to be around 23 gallons, give or take. I think I am going to go with a "bean animal" drain system. I also thinking of a sump system. I just get so confused on...
