Ok so iv been busy with life had some issues come up and have been unable to obtain items to move forward with this tank much iv started sanding the hood for restaining both my dogs got sick and almost 500 dollars and 4 days later they seem like they are doing much better, then my cell phone...

I used to freeze water bottles and float them in my 200 gal salt when it was set up in my apartment in soCal. But my tank had built in sump and I'd float them in the over flow box I don't know if you have a. 99 cent store in your area but ours sells bags of ice for a dollar each

The canopy has been gutted I've been busy so I haven't grabbed any wood putty to seal up the holes from the lighting hardware. Still looking for lights that I feel I can trust to do the job. I wanna be able to put anything I wanna get in the tank and I know lights will play a big role in that...

I was planning on using any old canister filter the cheapest I can find as its not going to be doing anything other than pumping water out and replacing the water....we have to set salt water up 24 hrs prior to using now? I used to keep a 200 gal salt and make the replacement water the same day...

Currently I do not have a top picture of this tank. The canister would be strictly for doing water changes not for filtering I just figured I would plumb it under with some valves 4 and tees 2 just flip the return to tank valve off open "drain valve" check inlet valve is from display tank and...

this tank is 150 gallons has "built in sump" its not drilled anywhere it's acrylic. How would I add a refuge to this tank? as I'm trying to build a mixed reef tank.. Could I use a canister filter to do water changes if I removed the filter and plumbed it correctly could make for easyer no lift...

No I checked around the tank for some kind of logo sticker or identifying marks but found nothing altho a search on Google was able to provide pictures of similar style I like the cartridges on either side I'm going to try and hook up something similar

Question about the workings of the back of this tank what do I put in the back? My last tank had a built in wet dry filter that looked sorta like this but I don't see any spot for trickle trays or spill ways any help suggestions? Thanks

Awesome I will check it out closer to when I'm ready to start looking for rocks for aquascaping I looked at this sight years ago and thought if I ever redid my tank I'd try them out

Thanks, I'm gutting the canopy and starting fresh. I have room to hang three good sized led panels, but I figure if I'm going to spend 300 on lights I might as well find ones with all the features like sun rise sun set moon light and storms...I'm adding one more fan and replacing the current fan...

Here's some pics of my tank

Oh yeah forgot to mention I need to aquire all the rock and substrates for this tank also I guess I should keep a running tab on cost of supplies as we go to figure actual price of the completed tank so to-date total cost ($100 tank stand hood) I'm not going to count the pump or hob as they...

So I got the tank today, and its got potential to be a really nice tank although it's got a large deep, deep scratch on the front right side I will be checking for leaks first but what can fill a large scratch on an acrylic tank? Clear nail polish? It's like super deep so I don't wanna sand and...

Well if leds are working over reef tanks I may go that route as my house has solar panels and I'm trying to keep the cost of electricity down at my house before going solar my bill was 700 a month from Edison now I pay 5-15 a month to Edison and around 160 to the solar people. But wasn't...

Also if anyone has a complete list of fish that can fit in a 150 display tank so the family and I can look and pick what we would like to see in the tank prefer reef friendly fish although I know the mother in law who lives with us wants a porky pine puffer I know they aren't exactly reef...

I half way have a plan but was wondering whats the take on led lights vs other lights MH or t8's? And then I wanna put a blue hippo tang and would like to know what size tank I need to get for a quarantine tank

Has salt gone up in price? It didn't cost me 100 for my 200 gal tank I had about 3-4years ago I figured the dry rock was going to set me back a bit but wasn't counting on spending 400 for it, I have not seen this tank I don't know what it's set up for it comes with lights but I may need some to...

So I just bought a big tank and don't have it in my possession yet should be picking it up this weekend it's a 150 gallons with stand hood pumps and filters haven't seen it in person but it did belong to a friend of one of my family members and I couldn't pass on it as they sold it to me for 100...

Ahh now we're talking that's the kinda answer I was looking for although not what I was wanting to hear

No I haven't thought about breaking it up to twice a week I was wondering because I have a 19month old and have less and less time to work on my tank. As far as disrupting the tank to much I would be taking 5 gallons out of the back where the over flow/bio balls are kept and be adding the new...

Would 5gallons a day be better than 25gallons every Friday on my 200gal tank? I'm thinking I could do 5 gallons a day a little easier than 25 a week and would be a bigger water change every week as well

I just saw my do fox face rabbitfish sting my clown fish and can find no info on the web of if this could kill my clown the clown started it when the fox face got to close to her home grazing. My clown is a mean one and was nipping at the belly and back of the fox face when bam! The fox let her...

Search on amazon.com or ebay under led reef lights or some variation or put taotronics led reef lights and you should be able to find them
