Anyone have any comments on this ballast? Nothing from Sanjay yet on it.... Looking to use it in a 250W SE configuration.

Anyone else used this kind of seaweed for feeding or in their food mix? Went ahead and picked it up in addition to NORI for some variety...

Ok. My tank is finally up and running after what has been nearly a 2 yr process due to other commitments taking up my time. I still have some minor additions to make but she has been up and running for a few months now. There is some background in this old thread. I built everything I could...

[We'll I have my tank drilled and sitting in the garage. I have steel on the floor ready to be cut. I have some equipment here already and some fixing to be ordered. Sounds like I need to get moving on this deal.......... A little background... Tank is a 120G (4x2x2). I am planning a CL with a...

[For anyone who is considering getting Oceans Motions devices and a Sequence pump. Consider getting both from OM with their "Plumb and Play" deal. It looks like I can get my 4-way and a sequence with a ballvalve/union and other needed plumbing to connect the 2 for less than I can buy just the...

[I finally have the money to get started on my 120G upgrade. I am at the very beginning and think I have a plan to move forward with. Please follow along and give me any advice that you may have. I'll be adding info and a diagram shortly :wwww:]

[OM has come out with new versions of both the 4 and 8 ways. they have apparently been out a little while but I just noticed. Both have been changed to a magnetic drive (like the squirt is) instead of a shaft drive. The previous designs were built so that the shaft would snap if there was...

[I have a false and a true perc. For a while they both hosted the same RBTA. When my RBTA split they were overbearing on one of the halves and killed it off. They other half of the split made it fine and they were hosting (albeit a smaller home). Since then the larger true perc kicked the false...

[I run 14K MH for 8hrs by themselves. And run 55W of Actinics 2 hrs before and after the MH.] Edited By grim-bob on 1102956245

[I am planning my new 120G (48x24x24). The tank is going to be dual RR with a Mag12 (or equivalent) as the return pump (split between both returns in the overflows). The pump sizing here may change slighty but not much I am thinking. I am planning to go either BB or SSB (leaning BB) and maybe a...

[Laurie (my wife) has been having what we believe is allergy problems since about April of this year (although it is not conclusive it is allergies). It has mostly been uncontrollable coughing. She has been to the doctor (and allergy specialist) numerous times throughout the summer. She has been...

[Well I finally got motivated to finish it off. Nothing fancy. Just another Marc style closed loop w/ SCWD. Got a Mag 9.5 pushing it on my 29G. Here are a couple of pictures. 1st of the returns in the front (WOW 2 returns, who'da thunk it). And the 2nd the plumbing (the interesting parts...

[I am currently looking at getting a 120 or 140 tank within the next several months. I have noticed that some of the ones I find come with a glass center brace. I know that I have read on several occasions that the center brace was disliked.... That brings up several questions I would like to...

[Just saw this if you happen to be looking for a replacement bulb. Looks like for Pulse start and electronic ballast only. 175W http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchan....earance And 250W http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchan....earance]

[Here we go. Let's see if I get this posted right. Anyway. My picture taking ability sux. I am sure a better camera would help but oh well. This is my 29G. I am running a 20G fuge and a 10G sump. Return to the tank is via a Mag9.5 split 3 ways (fuge, tank and back into sump). There is 75 lbs of...

[Need a few pointers on fragging a hammer coral. This will be my first time. :blush21: First off how do I do it? Do I just break off the frag by pulling it apart at the "Y" in the branch or what? Also how many crowns should I shoot for on each frag? A few of the branches could be split into...

[I am in the process of replumbing to add a fuge to my setup (30G tank, ~15G fuge, 10G sump). Was considering adding checkvalves to my lines to minimize the amount of siphoning back into the sump. I am running a Mag 9.5 which is split 3 ways: 3/4" return to tank, 1/2" return to fuge, 3/4"...
