    Been a while, back in the game.

    Hey everyone. Been off and on, and haven't had a tank in a while. But I have a new house and decided I needed some decoration so my night light on my night stand is a 14gal bio cube. So glad to have a tank again.

    120g tall

    Hey I have a 120g tall tank, my brother was using it for fresh water but is moving so he broke it down. It needs cleaned (white crustys from hard water), it has a stand, but the stand has some water damage on the trip part. Just replace the trim and it will be fixed. Thought I would see if...

    72" Metal Halide Lights For Sale or Trade

    I have this light, bought from this seller, I used for a while on my tank. One of the T5's is dim, but it is the bulb, as I moved them around and it was always that same bulb. Other than that it works perfect. I can send some pictures that I will take in the morning if you email me...

    After a time away, I'm back

    Hey everyone, I had a large 125 gal set up, ended up breaking it down and haven't had anything for a while. I live near Sedona Arizona in a little town called Cottonwood, and there isn't much here at all for saltwater stuff. It has been a crazy time in life and staying busy, but I always think...

    I'll try to get some pictures when I get off work today. My tank has changed a lot and I'll update my build thread. But my new fish I got yesterday are a Powder Blue Tang, Yellow Eye Kole Tang, a Fox Face, and I got a sleeper banded goby (I think) the day before. The Powder Blue and Kole Tang...

    Tang Compatability

    So there is a guy in Phx who needs a stand and canopy brought down to him from Sedona, and I want some fish. He said he would give me $50 towards fish if I brought it down to him, and this sounds good because I have to go down there to get fish anyway. He priced me a M/L Powder Blue for $46...

    Color lights, corals

    So I have a unit with 3 14K 250w MH lights, 4 96 actinic, and 8 blue leds. The actinic, makes the corals color better, they wash out a bit under the MH, but with just the LED's on some of the corals really pop. Problem is wher the leds are placed and that there are only 8 of them. My...

    Anemone Moving

    I have only had my Anemone for like 3 days or so. This is the second time it has moved back to where I could not see it or get to it. The first time I dug out the rocks and moved it back up front. This time I have just left it, as I will have to move about 3 big rocks to get to it. I'm...

    Clownfish

    So I got a pair of Gold Stripe Maroon Clown fish, the female is about 2.5-3inches, the male is about 2 inches, quite a bit smaller. I'm not exactly sure how long they have been together but they hang out together pretty much all the time. I also just aquired a set up that has a HUGE Gold...

    Crazy Fact about Marine Fish

    So this just came up on my google random facts page that I have. I haven't looked into it yet, I just saw it. Kinda crazy though! Most tropical marine fish could survive in a tank filled with human blood. :shock:

    Food/Feeding

    Hey, so where do you all get your food for your fish/corals? I have no LFS so would be very interested in some good quality stuff I can order online. Anyone have a place or places that are good prices, good quality, and will have stuff when I need it? I've been looking around but thought...

    Skimmer, filter, auto fill, all in one!?

    So I just saw this on craigslist with a bunch of other stuff. Was wondering if anyone knew anything about it? What if I took the bio balls out and added live rock instead? Kinda nice to have the auto top off and everything all together. Just wondering about it, thanks! Tom Rapids Pro...

    My Skimmer (Aqua Medic Turboflotor T1000)

    Ok so in the title is what I believe to be the skimmer I have. It came with my tank (but it was not hooked up and going when I got it) All the skimmer says on it is Aqua Medic, but the pump it has says Aqua Medic 2500 which is the one that matches to this skimmer and it looks just like this...

    New to Salt Water (Again)

    Hey everyone, I was on here a few months ago when I got a new 120 gal tall type tank that was set up as a reef tank. I had to move it 2 hrs, and was a little overwhelmed with everything, plus we were moving into a new place in a couple months so I just set it up as freshwater at my parents...
