Can you tell me about your lights? I'm not 100% sure but have a paly frag doing the same under too much light.I moved mine lower to see if they will do better.

Pics look really great except they are too small.I kept clicking on them thinking they were thumbnails but nothing happens.

ATI all the way.Puts out more PAR then any other T5 bulbs. +10 to Emmett for choice of bulbs.

Budget wise,I would go with a RKL for 125 bucks.Control your lights,temperature,powerheads and many more options. http://premiumaquatics.com/aquatic-supplies/RK-30-0012-001.html

They are going to re-design the skimmer to fit the Nuvo 16 and 24 because those tanks have become so popular.I haven't checked back in awhile but it could be available already.

Typically,most people use 4 modules on 6ft. tanks.I'm not familiar with that fixture.Actually,that's the first time I've heard of an LED fixture that spans the whole length of the tank. If you go with that fixture you could always go with lower light corals on the very end of each side..

Are you talking about those dark spots on the sand? I haven't a clue on what type of algae that is.I wouldn't worry about it during the cycling period.

No.

Hah,yeah Jeff. We talked through email so many times.

They are too sensitive so I removed mine completely.The spewing of microbubbles or overflowing from just the smallest amount of food or epoxy drove me nuts.Water changes will have to do until Cadlight makes their nano-skimmer work on the nuvos.They are suppose to be working on it.

I'm terrible at all the trade names for zoas. Nice zoa rock,though!

The pic looks kind of blurry but it could well be just the feathers of a tube worm.

So sorry. If any flesh can recover then it could bounce back in time.

Very nice,I running the 24 myself.Great little nanos with some quirks.

Never tried there reactors.I swear John's skimmers are too awesome for words.Simple design with a self cleaning venturi.I ran one for 5 years never having the venturi hiccup or clog.

I wouldn't dose feed my tank unless there are corals that need it.Spot feeding on the other hand should be done depending on the corals.For example,blastos,trachies and lobos I feed during the day.Scolys and some of my acans get fed at night.I only feed them twice a week to cut down on nutrients.

They are nice to have but isn't necessary for a successful reef.

IME,torch corals are somewhat more difficult then say hammers and frogspawn.I have a toxic green torch doing really well and a gold torch die for reasons unknown.Some torches will eat and some won't readily accept anything.My green shows no reaction to feeding.

Sorry for your lost. My experience and from reading other people's experience.Aussie euphyllia are having poor long term survivals..IME,it's usually the odd color gold,orange hammers,torches and frogspawns.I'm losing a orange hammer from STN(slow tissue necrosis) currently for reasons...

I have so many suitable corals for my clowns yet all they care about is the powerhead. I read about the flashlight trick that worked for some people.When the lights are out,shine the light towards the anemone and then towards the clown.Sort of coaxing them toward a host.So far it hasn't worked...
