Any comments are appreciated. It'll be for a 200 gallon. I made it with google sketchup free so if you want the model, let me know.

All, I am in the thinking / planning stage for my "ultimate" aquarium. I'd love to start some open discussions so I can plan better and start building a shopping list. I will start with a money is no object and start to widdle it down from there. By the time I am done, maybe it'll be our...

For those of you with a sump, how many of you also use some form of mechanical filtration? What do you use and what do you like? I seem to continually battle little what junk floating around in my tank. I have a sock on my drain and I clean that every couple of days but it doesn't seem to do...

What are some of the places you order online for your aquarium? I am looking a 190+ gallon. I'd like to be able to customize them like reef ready and sumps and such...

So, I have $500 buring a hole in the pocket and thought about this controller. Does anyone have one? Do you like it? Any issues with it being so new? If you don't use this one, what controller do you like?

I was browsing around and came across some plans for a DIY coil denitrator. I could tell that by some of the posts people were against them. Aside from the regular salt water changes in my fish with reef tank, I'd like to keep mintrates as low as possible. If it really is as simple as some...

All, I have ordered a grounding probe. I thought about placing in my sump as that is where my pumps and stuff are. However, if I have it in my display, then in the unfortunate event that a light goes in it would work as well. That would be the case if I am doing something that would require me...

All, if I go with a 500 watt MH light and use 14,000K bulbs, do I need to supplement with any other bulbs, like the actinic for my LPS and SPS and in the future, clams. My 115g tank is about 20" deep at the deepest point before sand. thanks....

If I plumb in two pumps to one return line, will my GPH increase, given the 3/4" return line can handle the increased volume? I wouldn't see why not but thought I would ask....

All, I plan to add more live sand, some more live rock and sand / re-stain the aquarium and stand. Here is the plan of attack and looking for advice if it makes sense: Siphon water from the 100g display to a 30g QT. Add about 20lbs of rock to it and move the Ritteri Anemone, goniopora coral...

I have a 100g with a 35g sump and a 4 tube 54w T5 light. The house is AC at about 77 and the tank runs up to 80.7 during the day and 78.2 at night. I can run a fan and cool it down to 77.5 no problems. I would plumb into my sump. What chiller would you use for this. Cost and noise levels are...

FOWLR but soon to add coral. Are they beneificial? Should I keep them?

All, the other night I was browsing around and came across a site that had thermoelectric heater chiller combos and made them up to several hundred gallon size. I cannot find the website again. The ones for a 100G tank was about the size of a brick and had three fans on the top. Do any of...

All, been reading a bit about sumps and am in the initial phase of planning / thinking about it. We picked up a 95G (based on my measurements) cycled tank from Craig's List. It has a couple chromis, star fish and several crabs. It also has about 75Lbs of LR and sand. I don’t plan to add any...

All, New to the forum, so hi to all. I'll be around here and there a bit. I have a 115G SW tank and looking at getting an automatic feeder. I'd like one that can be set up for a couple feedings a day. What's your choice?
