    Controller questions (and new club meets old club!)

    Thanks Roberto! I put in a good word for you! Seems like I need to dig up some of the posts on your product, and make an educated decision.... Have others swapped out an older Neptune for a Reef Angel?

    Controller questions (and new club meets old club!)

    Thought this was neat...I go to the club page for Delaware valley Reef club (Yep, I now live in the Delaware valley, and we've only had a few days above freezing in the past month, and there is still 6-10 inches of snow on the ground, and has been for the past 4+ weeks), well, I notice in the...

    Corner Aquarium?

    Not that I know of. I am looking at a 90g non-bow corner tank - Just need to decide on whether I like that look, or the Cube better. I have always wanted a cube, so it might be the better decision. We have not even moved in yet, so still some time to make the decision. All your input so...

    Corner Aquarium?

    Anyone have a cadlights tank? the 50 cube? Or, any recommendation for a nice cube tank (does not need to be rimless) Thanks!

    Corner Aquarium?

    Really good suggestion! I looked at a 30x30x30 cube once...hmmm I already have a few extra 24" T5 bulbs, reflectors and at least 2 extra ballasts...I could easily run 8x24 in a 24x24 tank...and get total light overkill! Thanks Zepp...this might be the right suggestion! However, I did find a...

    Corner Aquarium?

    Thanks for the info everyone - well, seems like the bowfront is not well received. I need to do a little inspection of the floors and see what 92+g would do in the corner of my bedroom. Also, as usual, wife approval is key. Unfortunately, there is not as active of CL community here in Philly...

    Corner Aquarium?

    The new house might be better with a corner tank, instead of a typical flat wall tank. Does anyone have one, and can comment on what they like and dislike about their current tank. Would you buy the same tank again or a different tank? I'm thinking of the 55-90 gallon Corner tanks, i.e...

    Kvosstra's Raspberry Prostrata

    Great to hear guys! The funny thing about this coral, is that once the base is solid, and a few branches get going...its a weed! But, it took 2 years of encrusting to get there for me. Bryan - seems like you might have a few to add to the DBTC then!

    Kvosstra's Raspberry Prostrata

    How is this coral growing for folks? I hope a few frags of it are around the group!

    A. Microthalama (acropora)

    This thing is an absolute weed! Under bluish light (i.e. dawn and dusk) it really, really shines! Under my blue+, it was pretty stunning! Plus, since it grows so quickly, its a great coral for a "fill in" spot!

    Mysterious coral death

    I think a larger problem becomes flow, once colonies become larger. Where there was once, uninterrupted flow to all the little frags in your tank, each new, larger colony, blocked the flow of water. Every additional bit of growth, on each coral, adds up to thousands of small additional...

    Kyle's 40G sps Reef

    Yep - King of Prussia Mall is just 5 miles from my new place. Unfortunately, I like most of the stores better at our old Stanford mall, and even downtown Palo Alto, e.g. Restoration Hardware. Oh well! But yes, with the weather being oh 5 degrees today, I bet folks were at the KOP mall...

    Kyle's 40G sps Reef

    Thanks for the suggestions folks! Sergio, good point about diversity, I may have to consider adding some rock and/or sand from a known established tank. Just a week left until we close! Hoping that the tank can be set up by end of Feb or early March!

    Kyle's 40G sps Reef

    OK - So looking for some comments... 1. Would you add a bacterial starter to the tank, e.g. Probidio, or something similar. (tank will be started with dry rock and sand, so need something to start the process, I think!) 2. Pictures will be here, as soon as I can find my camera battery...

    Burst pipe - flooded bedroom - probably moving...again

    Rich (Sanddollar) tank was one of the nicest I have ever seen. He had quite a few nice corals, some of which he would not even sell, i.e his selago. I never got a frag of that, and bummed to not have it today! It was similar to the aquarium city selago (store in los angeles) that also no...

    Water changes - how large and how often?

    I admit to being terrible at this - I would change about 10-20% once a month, to once every 6 weeks.

    how would you set-up a new tank?

    Ok - so, since I have now been out of the hobby for a year, and, my last tanks were 4-5 years old, I have not even considered how to start a truly NEW setup! I am looking for direction on how to best do this. 1. Tank is 40g breeder 2. Lights are 4x39 T5 HO - 2 blue + 2 aquablue...

    Ill certainly need a chiller in the summers - its blistering hot here, and not sure how we are going to run the AC...The good thing about a new tank, is that I can plan the plumbing and get it just right! I want to run my CA reactor, and two phosban reactors off the pumps too, so that should...
