This may be a day late and a buck short, but I caught one of those at a marina in NC 2 weeks ago. Same deal, transparent with big eyes. I was reaching for a shrimp when it swam out of the algae. I'm pretty sure what I caught was a juvenile eel of some sort (American Eels are common here)...
I am assuming that you are asking about setting up a 20-30g and not the 46g that you mentioned earlier.
If this is the case, I have a 20g lit by a 65 watt Current fixture with a Valentini Puffer and a Fridmani Pseudochromis. I have a HOB filter just like yours that I use occasionally for...
I recently converted a 5g generic version of the Eclipse system into a refugium for my 20g fowlr. The fuge has about 2lbs LR piled in one corner and a baseball size chunk of Chaetomorpha, on a 1.5" sand bed. The light is only an 8 watt flourescent, so i am waiting to see if the chaeto will...
Real FF you need to do more research. Forums are great for specific questions, but you need to read every article you can about how to cycle, stock, and maintain a SW aquarium.
Your light will be fine for a FOWLR, having a skimmer on a 20g is good, and you have a ton of LR. These are good...

For right now I have the fuge linked to the main tank by 2 reverse flowing syphon tubes. When I do water top offs in the main tank, the water level in the fuge rises to the same level. This...
The water inshore is more likely to have pollutants. I was thinking about getting the sand/water from a marsh creek system behind a barrier island. We go into these creeks in the winter time to harvest osyters and the water is truly pristine. I do go several miles offshore regularly, so it...
I live on the coast and was wondering if I could use the local live sand and salt water for my tanks. Just a thought, but if i set up a larger tank it would be a lot cheaper (free!) to get my own live sand.
I participated in a field study in which we took small samples of the local sand...
I ordered live rock and other goods from www.petsolutions.com, and was very pleased with everything I recieved. The rock has great color and new organisms appear all of the time.
I am under the impression that liveaquaria also has quality live stock/rock. I use both of these sites as a...
