    Tim's 29gal Biocube Reef / Angler Fish tank build

    Angler (: Shark supply sells feeder shrimp by the bulk. Maybe you could breed your own in a rubbermaid bin.

    Doug's 250, now 300, in wall build

    Put it in a plastic ziplock bag, then flatten it out and freeze. Break off pieces when you need them.

    Depends on the sand. When I had fine sand in my stingray tank 2 yrs ago, I vacuumed 4" from my sand bed and got what ever was on the top. When I had pool filter sand I stuck the vacuum in the sand for about 2 seconds then brought it up and kept repeating for the rest of the tank. I vacuumed up...

    Maroons host Condies. The other clowns are the ones who tend to stay away from them.

    Cheap LED solution???

    It's too much in one spot. I think 10w Crees spread out are better. Your tank is 4ft deep right?

    Best way is a blackout. No lights and food for a week

    125 FOWLR take 2

    If the flow for the mag 24 is too much you can get a longer hose so that the gph decreases because of headloss.

    Lighting??

    Aquatraders.com Has some nice t5s. I used theirs on multiple tanks and really liked my coral growth. Their 4 bulb 216w is good for LPS, Zoas, Leathers, and other med to low light coral. For SPS you should add another 108w fixture along with the 4 bulb.

    Lighting??

    12k-20k is what you should aim for in a reef. You're ideal wattage should be 4-6w per gallon with t5s and 2-4w with LEDs. But PAR is the most important because that is how strong your lighting is. Only problem is PAR meters are real expensive. So measuring in watts is the next best thing.
