I noticed that after about 3 years of use, my metal stand is developing some rust spots. Being under a 120 gallon tank, obviously that's of some serious concern!! Right now they are on the surface of the metal, but I'm worried about it spreading and comprimising the strength of the stand. How...

So, I got a copperband from the LFS the other day, where he had been QT'd for 2 weeks. After acclimating him to my tank (alas, I have no QT set up), he dropped dead within 24 hours. Now, 3 days later, 2 of my 3 tangs (Purple and Convict) are acting weird. They are a little listless, not...

Anyone have any experience on this? Think a foxface and a 2-barred rabbitfish would fight in a 150? Trying to decide if they are different enough...hrm.

I'm thinking about moving my sump to the basement so I have more room to work with, reduce noise in the living room, and help keep the tank soon. Right now I'm running a mag 12 at about 5 feet, the basement would make it around 11-12 feet. Any recommendations on a good pump? Do you think I'd...

Anyone know any longer feeders - I'm using one I bought from the LFS, but it sucks up too much air and when I spot feed the corals it spits out bubbles and the corals close up... Anyone have success with anything? I need something long...

Any advice on enticing a tang to eat algae off of a clip? I have one who pigs out on food on food on a clip but the other (tomini tag) avoids it. He eats food I feed just fine,and I'm not worried since he's putting on weight - I'd just like it if he'd show some interest too, so I can ensure he...

I'm thinking about getting one of these for power outage notifications...any thoughts? Cellular Freeze Alarm: Basic

Any idea what this is? Started as a white bump and grew into a bubble...

So I'm pretty new to sps and last week I put in one of my first acros under my ai LEDs. On the side facing the lights, it has bleached, so I moved it lower and raised my lights a bit. It's frustrating trying to figure out what's too bright vs not bright enough. So, light wise, it'll bleach if...

Got a brand new MP10ES that I stupidly bought not realizing my tank walls are too thick for it to work on! Looking to sell it so I can buy another MP40. It's brand new, so I'm asking for a fairly competitive price, but obviously it'd be cheaper than buying one from the store. $175 sound fair?

Ok - does it matter, on bulkheads, if you use the inner or outer threads? The bulkhead I have, on the top side, has internal threads, but then, the "outside" part of the bulkhead has both male and female threads...

Hey Guys, Looking for a smallish pump that can pump water up one floor. It doesn't need to be pump water quickly, just enough for water changes, so a mag7 would probably be overkill. Any recommendations? It also needs to be fairly small... Thanks! A

Okay, so my tank is about ready to ship, along with its stand. It's a large tank, 72 x 27 x 18 and the total weight is around 900 lbs, crated. Here's the problem: It's getting shipped to a freight depot 50 minutes away. I don't really know what I need to get it to my house. I have some...

Couple of questions, starting to order plumbing supplies. I plan on doing my drain lines in PVC schedule 80, and the return in braided nylon tube. Is this a good/bad idea? Should the return only be in PVC? Also, do most tanks come with the bulkheads already installed, or is this something...

Anyone here ever own a convict tang? I really like their look, but have never seen one in person- would love to see some home made shots too! I kind of want one for the new tank...

Looking for an experienced/sps answer on this.. So, debating on whether to get a 2 or 3 pump GHL doser. The 3rd pumo would be for dosing spurts of coral food overnight. What are your thoughts on this? Also, a lot of the products suggest refrigerating after opening (like oyster feast, etc)...

Ok, so I'm wondering if this sand (the course one) is going to be too fine for an 18" high tank with vortechs? I'm also toying with the idea of placing all rock rubble (1-2" rubble) on top 1-2" of sand to create a unique tide-pool type look. I think it COULD become a detritus trap and...

Ok, I'm working an a yet-to-be-discussed project for my tank, but I need some DIY help on a part of it. I'm basically trying to hook up an MP3 player to some speakers, and play music when the speaker's outlet is turned on (it will be turning on through a relay). The issue is, I'm trying to find...

Hey Guys, it's been a long time coming, and I decided to start my 150 build thread. I won't be home until September, but I've already started buying the equipment and planning it out. No real pics yet, I'd appreciate any help/suggestions/etc you can pass my way. I can't wait to share the build...

I just completed my second order from Reef Geek. Both times, the customer service was top notch. They quickly responded to several inquiries I had and were incredibly helpful. I'd definitely recommend reefgeek to anyone, especially if you're looking for AI LED lights or Vortechs! Alex
