    MP40's or K-4's?

    Yes, years ago I had regular powerheads that were not able to do anything but full flow all the time. They were bulky and ugly in the tank, nothing like the new prop pumps like the koralias and vortechs. The best thing about the vortechs are the different wave patterns pre-programmed into the...

    MP40's or K-4's?

    I have the mp10 and love it. If I had a bigger tank I would go with the mp40. Expensive but worth it.

    Suggestions to reduce extra nutrients in tank

    GAC= granular activated carbon. GFO= granular ferric oxide. GAC is good for removing nutrients and GFO is good for removing phosphate. If you are having nutrient problems using GAC should be one of the first choices.

    Is starphire worth it?

    Does anyone hang pendant MH's over their tank?

    If you look up Jestersix's setup he is using plasma light pendent style with reef brites. I have a lumenarc mini and used a coat hanger to attach a small LED strip to the back of the light. It looks so good you can't even tell there is a coat hanger on the back. :LOL: Of course this isnt the...

    I am ordering an anemone

    If you are buying from a hobbyist see if he can take the anemone to a local store that has oxygen and does shipping. Might cost more but could be worth it.
