    WTT frags for quality tank photo shoot

    Got a DSLR and know how to use it? I'd like to have someone come out and shoot my show tank in the near future. I've got a variety of frags - primarily SPS and zoanthids - that I would be willing to trade for your time. If you're interested and have some skill with the camera please let me know.

    converting to SE halide from double ended

    The Reeflux lamps are great. Go for the 12K, it should be blue enough for you. I'm using the 10K and find it a nice balance of growth and color, although sometimes I do want a little more blue.

    ** ANY SPARE 250W SE BULBS IN CENTRAL DALLAS? **

    Naturally, the night before I have to go out of town two days for work I come home to my MH not working. Unfortunately, I have neither spare bulb or spare ballast to test it out on. DOES ANYONE IN THE CENTRAL DALLAS AREA HAVE A SPARE 250W MH LAMP THAT I CAN BORROW FOR A FEW DAYS? I'm good for...

    DAS EX-1 Recirc Needlewheel (56K go skimmerless)

    Inspired by Bill's thread on his Otopus (viewtopic.php?t=22061) , I thought I would post some pics of the new skimmer I just got, a DAS EX-1. My tank isn't up and running yet (best laid plans of mice and men) but I'll keep updating it as it goes. If anyone else has a DAS skimmer and want's to...

    Plumbing backpressure question

    Lo and behold, the outlet on my Eheim 1262 is 1" and I have a 3/4" Sea Swirl. I'm using spa flex, so the plan is to run 1" flex to the highest point that's not visible then have a reducer bushing that necks down to 3/4" to match the barb on the SS. Problem: The Eheim is not pressure rated. Is...

    H&S vs. ER vs. DAS vs. PCI

    For my birthday, my fiancee decided I needed a good skimmer and donated a generouse $225 to the cause :) Now I'm forced to make a difficult decision as to which skimmer I actually want. This is where you come in! Help out by relaying your experiences with any of the models listed below. I'm...

    Sea Swirl - near central Dallas?

    Anyone near central Dallas have a sea swirl in operation on their tank (preferably a 1" model)? I'm going back and forth between the Sea Swirl and the Wavy Sea and would love to see one (or both) in action. My concerns about the SS is that it's too big and bulky. My concern about the WS is that...

    *** PIC OF 25OW *DE* REEFLUX 10K ***

    An e-friend sent me this pic of his tank today. After raving about the SE Reeflux bulbs, he was considering switching out his 14K Phoenix for the 10K DE Reeflux. Well, about 3 weeks back he did so and has been immensely happy. Now granted, he hasn't seen a SE 10K, but from his description the...

    Return pump choice - help me decide!

    So I think my tank plans have shifted again, down to a 65W - 36L x 24 W x 18H. I'm currently trying to adjust my plans, and part of that involves choosing a return pump. The system will be SPS-heavy. I plan on running two 6100 streams in the tank, which might be stepped down to 6000s if the...
