Well I moved all my stuff over to the new aquarium. Looks much better with all that rock. About 2 to 2.5 lbs per gallon in there... Here are some pics. Now the stand was made from wood I had lying around at the house and stain and poly laying around from my kitchen remodel. Only cost was...

He is always in that pipe. I need to remove that pump. He backed up all the way down the pipe almost to the impeller. Its not plugged in because it is too powerful to be mounted with just an elbow outlet. When I first plugged it in it shot back and sucked up sand... shooting water 2 food up...

then he saw that I found him and fled for cover!

nitrates are under control... currently at 15.. lots of gunk in the tank I had to suck out.. hidden under my rocks. I am currently building a stand at http://www.reeffrontiers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26269 Going to put a 55 gallon down there and put a fuge in there. As far as the tank...

well next month I should be getting a slight bonus so I can add about 100 lbs of base rock and 50 lbs of live rock. I'm thinking I should take apart the tank completely.. move it off the stand.. fix the stand and put a 55 gallon tank under the main 125. Put a mix of a sump/refugium and then redo...

What do you guys think of making your own rock? Well I was given the tank for free. The rock I have actually came out of my 55 gallon tank, which is now a goldfish tank.

filtration is just the rocks and skimmer... maybe I need to add some mechanical filtration? I dont think I can plop down another 500 on live rock.

Price update... error on it... I can let this go for $130 shipped.

I have two Metal Halide Coralvue Ballasts - 250w Electronic. Come with spider reflector, mogul sockets and everything needed to run MH. The bulbs are old and probably need to be replaced. About 10 months of use on the bulbs. I can ship them if you want or not if you don't. They are...

Clownfish do not need an anemone. I've had a maroon and two perculas with no problem. They will find something else to host if they really want to host something. General rule of thumb is about a year to wait for an anemone. Tank looks nice. When I started I had LR with coraline all...

The ballast is the as220 - so it only supports 8' of vho. It was originally on my 55 gallon tank until I obtained the 125 for free. I used a 6' 1x4 pine board with holes drilled and counter-sinked to screw in my endcaps. So I have two bulbs over the center and one bulb over each side. All...

http://www.aquariumadvice.com/viewtopic.php?t=72119&highlight= Thats my old thread about my 125 gallon tank. Well a few updates: I've been remodelling my house so I haven't spent a ton of time on my aquarium. I need to polyurethane my stand but that won't be possible as for it is in use...

Well just an Update I have finished moving stuff, but I am far from unpacking everything. My wifes fish are all doing well. We bought a piece of driftwood for her pleco and it is absolutely loving it. My tank is going well... tank water is crystal clear. but I did have one concern...

What kind of stand is that? I don't see anything supporting the center. Crazy Man.. Crazy.. Tell me it isn't so!

Well to let you in on my experience... Quikrete play sand does fizz and have some aragonite in it... regular play in other container does not.. its silica like the pool filter sand. I used Quikrete All-Purpose sand.. $3 for 160 lbs... everything was okay for a bit.. then tons of algae...
