I am interested in a green one to hold RO effluent water to fill my backyard pond, only if the green one does not cause any trouble for shipping rate (I want to have a colored one for outdoor). I don't think it is a good idea to use this to hold salt water. I have 3 55G drums to hold RO/DI...

Hi Kyle, I would love to get a frag of the blue orgazims, but I can only pick up on Sunday afternoon from your house (I will be out of town until Sunday morning), that is if you can hold it that long. Could you let me know if it is too late?

Thanks Gregory for the link. Mike, that is why I am sharing my experience here. Not to draw any conclusion on anything about LED, but it is so new, I thought it is of some value to share my experience with others, for whatever it is worth. Thanks Roberto and Dudley for sharing your...

I am not using any lens since this is on top of 12G Nano. You only need lens when you are trying to penetrate much deeper water. I actually fitted LEDs on 5 different tanks (besides this one and a pure white fuge light, all others are royal blue actinic) with total of ~75 Cree LEDs, and I am not...

They are 3w each LEDs, capable of using 36w max. I am using the dimmable driver, and turned it way down from day one, and it is only drawing 25 watts (measured by kill a watt). Given these drivers are not 100% efficient, I assume LED actually get about 20-22 watts of energy. Tony, I have...

I have a 12G nano tank that I fitted with 12 Cree LEDs (6 white and 6 royal blue) with no other lighting, and I always wanted to put a small RBTA in the nano tank. Even though the LED lights look great to people's eyes, I don't think my corals like them very much. Most SPSs I put in there will...

Thanks John. Is it this one? http://mycameratoys.myshopify.com/products/canon-70-200-f4l

What is the ad about? It is removed, but I am curious.

Thanks a lot for the explanation. You tank looks great, and I am sure whatever you are doing is working great. Arnold also has a skimless tank and a lot of clams, and his tank is clean and stable. I am just curious where all the fish poops go :). If I turn off the skimmer in my setup (120G main...

I have a question that is probably stupid about using clams to replace skimmer. While skimmer pulls things out of water, aren't clams putting most things back into the water? I guess parts of nutrients become clam flesh/shells, but I assume this is a small proportion of what are filtered through...

I got Ian's EME some time ago just to put it side by side against this to see if they are the same, and I think they looked different. I haven't looked at them for a while, and will check again tonight. Given this piece originally came from Matt (ReefReady) and was sold to me as MH, I think it...

Thanks a lot Jason.

Sure I will show my tanks, even though they are not in top condition right now. I am going to be traveling in the second half of June though, and hopefully nothing bad happens while I am gone (which always seems to happen).

Best of luck Tony. Do let us know about the latest in lighting. Even though this sounds wrong, sometimes it is more exciting talking about LEDs than corals.

Get the mexican turbo snails, not the regular turbo snails. As said in my previous post, mexican turbo are large compared to regular turbo, and they can knock your unfixed frags off. I got mine from aquatic gallery before they moved, and am not sure if they still stock them. I found larger ones...

The large mexican turbo snails will eat up these red turf algae pretty well.

I agree that algae might still grow with low phosphate, but I found it hard to believe that I have so little phosphate in my tank (not that it is a bad thing) since I have about 19 fish including 5 anthias, 3 tangs, and 2 large rabbit fish. I do run a powerful skimmer/GFO/Carbon/cheato/continous...

Thanks John for the explanation. What you described makes sense to me, even though different from the instruction.

I got mine today, and am confused about the instruction. It seems to say after adding the powder, swirl for 20 seconds, put the tube back into the checker, then wait for 3 minutes, then push the botton for several seconds until a 3 minutes count down clock appears. But when I follow the...

9 please.
