Grats Smitty! Good luck with the move.

Not if you have a fishing license.

Re: Very new to reef keeping,,, a few questions ,, any advice very much appreciated +1 little_fish and amber. If you try the fan and it doesn't work, you're only out a couple bucks. If it does work, you've saved yourself several hundred.

Grats Amber! Sleep well.

That's an insane deal on the rock! My 75 took a couple days to clear up completely. Have you added anything to start your cycle?

Like Brian and Smitty said. There's no minimum size, but I highly doubt a 5g would be able to hold any worthwhile equipment and with a DT that big the extra water in the system wouldn't even be noticed.

Glad to see your tank is getting back to normal. After reading your story, I think I'm going to keep my fish food locked in the booze cabinet, or maybe in a gun case that only opens with fingerprints and voice commands.

Nice start. Any thoughts on what you'd like to keep in there?

Very nice, can't wait to get my lights so I can start keeping corals in my 75.

Yea, he's also been researching lights for me and says he's going to do his best to match internet pricing for the 8 bulb setup I want. Originally he said he'd put a nem in with the clowns but I told him I don't want a nem in my tank. I'm going to get a hammer or frogspawn and hope for the best.

I'm building a pvc overflow for my sump right now. I should have it up and running in a couple days after I finish leak testing my baffle and tubing. I'll let you know how it works out. Mine is going to have an algae scrubber at the end of the overflow into the sump so the flow might be a little...

Went to my lfs today to get my return pump and asked if they had black & white and orange o clown pairs. He said they don't normally sell them that way but before I left he put 2 of them together and agreed to hold them that way and watch them to make sure they got along until my next paycheck...

It's 26 gal, 32lx10.5wx18t give or take.

So give my pump 7 inches or so and then have a baffle from the bottom to about 3/4 the height of the sump?

I'm finally building my sump this weekend. What I'm planning is a 5gal bucket that will by my algae scrubber, that will dump into a 26gal tank that will be my fuge. My question is, if my whole sump is basically just a big fuge, do I even need to worry about baffles if I can just make sure my...

The whole $1 per gallon at petco sounds great, but if he's like me and lives far enough away from petco that their site can't even tell me where the closest one is, then it could be way more of a pita than it's worth.

Ccs are more common because they're cheaper and generally more readily available.

Yea I plan on keeping 3 or so chocolate chips in the sump and rotate taking an arm at a time.

Looks great! Good luck.

I knew from the start that that whole list wouldn't fit happily in my tank. Those are just the fish that I had in mind. I don't plan on keeping both the tangs. I think I'm going to go for the yellow. And I'm still not so sure about the coral beauty. For now I'm constantly rethinking my list. I...
