Ok thanks. I didn't think the actinic bulb would do anything to the tank, but I thought I would ask just in case. So I will leave the 10,000K bulb in and then I will replace the actinic bulb with the...

I am planning on setting up a 33g tank and am going to be putting plants into it. Now, the light that I am going to be getting comes with a 10,000K bulb and one actinic bulb. I ordered a 6,7k bulb...

Oh, so they're a little more difficult then. I am assuming that you would have to cut through the hard skeleton part of it then and that's the piece that will be the frag?

Thanks ILMGB. I do have alot of room for it to grow. I have one end of the tank dedicated just for it. They are definitely hardy. After just a few days it's been fully open and accepting food. If the...

I just purchased one a few days ago, it's probably about 4" in diameter and has a green tone of polyp on it. My question is, what are peoples reactions to this coral? Like if you like it or don't or...

I've never seen the 70W version before so i'll have to look into that. Thanks.

Hmm ok that's good to know. I think I will go with the MH then just because I don't want to have the HO T5 and then in the future decide to get coral that wont be able to survive in those conditions....

This is the light I would go if I went the MH route.

This came on some LR that I got from the LFS and I was wondering what it was, or if it was even anything at all. The porus thing in the middle of the picture.

*Edit
Sorry I don't remember how to...

Well there is a 150W MH pendant that I can get from the fish store that I would buy it at. Now wouldn't that be too much for my tank though? That would be 7.5wpg. That would fry corals like zoas and...

Ok thats good to hear that you've heard good things about this light. I will just be keeping easier to keep corals to begin with so that I can learn more about them and then maybe further down the...

Thanks. So from what I have heard people saying, it sounds like I will steer away from this product and look for another one. I have heard a lot of good things about the Reef Octopus skimmers so I...

Ok thanks. So it sounds like I should just look for a different skimmer then. One that is more designed to hang on the back. Any suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone has used this light before? It will probably be the one that I will be purchasing for my 20g tank. I am mainly going to be keeping softies in the tank with possibly a few...

Ok thanks for the thoughts about the skimmer.

labnjab, your using the skimmer in a sump right? Do you think it would be possible for me to run it just by hanging it off the back of my tank? I...

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone has ever used this skimmer for their tank before and what results they have got from it, or if they have heard any reviews from anyone before. I don't have a...

Yes I understand that and even though my tank is cycled, I wont be adding fish or coral to it right at the moment. I am waiting until my dead rock has been fully cured and then I will be adding that...

I get what your saying Chris, and you may be right but this product is fairly new to the market and isn't widely known at all. Not many people have heard about this product and that may be why. I...

All I have to say is this stuff is AMAZING!! I put the recommended dosage in my tank on a saturday and by monday night it was fully cycled. It's amazing at how fast this stuff works.
I have it...

Ok, I thought that was a lot of flow but wasn't quite sure. Thanks for the advice. I have never kept coral before so I am still learning new stuff everyday about them.

So I should stick with the 400gph then and take out the other powerhead?

If it helps at all, the coral that I would mainly be having in the tank would be SPS corals with maybe a few LPS corals down the road when I get a better grasp on reef keeping. As for fish, I think I...

Is 1450gph too much for a 20g tank? I have a koralia 1 and a koralia that is a flow rate of 1050gph. Is that too much for my tank? I eventually will be adding coral into the tank.

Thanks.

Has anyone used this to cycle their saltwater tank before? If so, did you have good results with it? I bought a bottle of it to cycle my 20g and the guy at the fish store said that it would cycle my...

Thanks. Ya I guess they would love the live brien shrimp cause they would probably be the perfect size for the little guys.
