Why?

Damn I know I should have waited until the end, but ran out of patience an hour too early. The result is a hole in my wallet, but I really like what I got, all chalices: Bazoka Joe, Oranji, and toxic pie. Oh, also a neat plexi top down viewer, for my upcoming cube.

Jason, while one way water flow from main setup to frag tank let you use it as a quarantine tank, it will make your setup more complicated, harder to balance, and potentially more failures done the road. Also frag tank usually have much smaller water volumn with much higher coral density and...

One MP40w it is, thanks for the advise. I remember the seller told me that the tank took the 4.x earthquake at Morgan Hill without any problem (he is very close to Morgan Hill). I will ask again today about the maker of the tank when he deliver the stand. So nobody see tanks with different...

Need expert's opinion quick since I am pulling the trigger in a few hours: Should I get one Vortech MP40w or two Vortech MP10? They are about the same price. If I go with MP40w, it is just one device on the tank, can mount it on any side of the tank (I can only mount MP10 on the side since...

Alnold, is your tank glass? I thought it is acrylic. I am thinking about put it in place of my current 20G frag tank. I am thinking about simple setting, connected together with my main tank through a shared sump (the same way as my current frag tank), and put a couple of Vortech mp20 in...

Phong, you are making me nervous now. Would a 3/8 inch glass bow with only 18" tall? Anyone else seen a tank with front/back glass thicker than side glass?

Thanks again Bernie for the look out!

Thanks Phong. The seller bought the tank from someone else about a year ago, and that person used it for a couple of years before selling to him. All he knows is it was made in socal. It is a little funky, with the front to be half inch starfire, back half inch regular glass, and two sides 3/8...

Thanks bluevoodoo.

Lol Gresh, if I had a 30 foot by 30 foot tank, I might need to buy half of the local RN supply, which will make you a very happy person ;) . Well, my mistake, and I stand corrected, I was looking for 30" x 30" tank.

Guess what, I just picked up the tank. Unfortunately, the cube stand does not fit in my SUV, so I have to have the seller deliver it to me tomorrow. I knew something like this will happen, I started thinking about a slightly larger frag tank, and ending up with an almost full sized 70g cube. I...

Bernie, do you have a link to the ad? I can't find it. Edit: I found the link on CL. Thanks Bernie!

Since my effort to buy a used 30' x 30' frag tank yield empty, i am considering the next option, which is buying it new. For new one, I am aiming at more specific spec., and am thinking about buying a 30' x 30' x 12-16' glass ringless tank with overflow, preferrable (not necessary) with starfire...

This is going to be my first attendance, and i am excited about it. But the event is really long, and I don't think i have time for the whole thing. Just wondering for those old timers, how long do you usually hang around the event? Thanks.

Jason, very nice setup. One small question, if you do not top off frag tank with RODI, how do you control the salinity for it?

I remember coming back from China a few years back with a little cough when SARS first broke out, and I sent everybody in my company fleeing when I started coughing.

Wow, this is a close one. Glad to hear not much damage. This pushed me over the edge, and i just ordered two titanium heaters this morning to replace my glass heaters.

Thanks Mike for the link. It is very interesting to learn that there are corals living 1500m (4500ft) below surface, and they are so precious that people make jewelry out of them. I guess they are not phytosynthetic, and wonder what they eat that make them so intensely red. For once a dead bone...

Well, even though this is a coral question, I am not sure if this is related to what we are talking here, therefore the question. Since I am going to Tibet in one week, I was reading a little about it. One thing I noticed is that Tibetans make a lot of coral jewels. Are these corals totally...
