not sure how to posts pics, send me you email, and I will send a pic of the sump

yes I would ship to Louisana if you cover the costs?

It is a Berlin Sump 23"X12"X14" . If you go into Marine Depot and search sumps, it is the Berlin Sump BS1. $50.

I have no idea how to post pictures. I will try and figure it out. Not sure how how I would get the corals to you either.

Corals are growing very nicely and taking over. I am looking to thin out my tank. I have some very nice size frogspawn and hammer corals for sale. I also have montipora and yellow polyps as well. I am in New Jersey.

I have a 36" Hamilton Deluxe MH Fixture, 2 Metal Halides 175 w with 2 96 watt actinics ballists included. Used only one year. Like new. The sump is a Berlin Sump (up to 125 gal). If interested in either , please let me know. I am in New Jersey. Thanks MLK

Thanks d2. The dust is insane. So far so good with the tank....

Speaking of air quality, I am having my house painted and the wood floors redone. I am bit nervous about my tank. The painting went well, except the tank got a little cloudy when they sanded the walls. Now they are sanding the floors, The room with the tank is all separated by plastic...

I have a 92 Gal. I change 15 gallons every week. Sometimes I change 10 gallons. I was actually thinking of changing the water every two weeks myself. But I have an A personality and I am a creature of habit . I don't think I can do it. :) I keep saying to myself, it's all about water...

Hey Seabee, Where do you get your water from in NJ? Can't beat that deal you got going on. :bowdown: MLK

Thanks everyone..I'm on it....

I am thinking about making my own saltwater as I am getting tired of lugging 5 gallon jugs from the LFS. I have a RO/DI unit for my top off water so I am set there although I am thinking of upgrading to a unit that makes more per day. I will be using Instant Ocean and the box recommends using...

Poor water quality was not my problem. Water parameters are fine. My tests matched LFS. Stray voltage was definately an issue in the tank. I think I will get the ground probe anyway as an added precaution. My tank temps run about 79 degrees before lights go on and 82 degrees when lights go...

I used a small pen like hand held Voltage Sensor where you can pres the clip to make the ground and dip the tip of the sensor in the water. $10 at Lowes. Any way, my Coral Beaut did not make it. I hope it was just that. I will definately use garlic soaked food to boost the fish that...

I went out an bought a voltage tester. I just tested and sure enough, it was beeping. I unplugged one unit after another until there was no beeping. It was one of my Koralia 3 pumps. I plugged it in a couple of times to check and every time I had it plugged in, I got the beeps on the tester...

I added the Mandarin and Coral Beauty about two weeks after my Purple Tang died. There are no spots on any of the fish. They all look great, even the Coral Beauty who is still just leaning on a rock. They have been in the tank going on three weeks. Other parameters I missed including in my...

Last month I lost my beautiful Purple Tang. Not sure why but one day he was doing fine and the next dat not so well, very motionless, leaning on a rock, ate a bit, then died the next day. No apparent ick or anything visible. I thought perhaps old age since nothing seemed to be wrong with...

Hello Fatman, you mentioned "the surface air exchange system is important for carbon dioxide/oxygen exchange and for gases produced by denitrification which can occur within live rock and sand beds with some depth. However low oxygen levels are usually not a problem of oxygen exchange as much as...

My friend, who just recently started in the SW experience was at a LFS and was talking to an individual who apparently had some experience with SW. He was advising her that as her tank establishes itself, say in a year or two...she would have problems with her tank. He was telling her she...

JH, The corals are still getting the the unwanted attention from the tangs. Is there anything I can do to divert their attention from my corals...I hate to see the corals retreat like this. Any suggestions ? MLK
