I recently started seing this tube like things on my rock and i cant figure out what it is. Now i noticed it started growing on acouple corals but it does not seem to do any damage to the coral itself. Any idea what it is??

since ive upgraded to a 65g rr tank, ive decided to set up a 20gL sump to my system. Now i have consistant aeration into my sump via small bubbles coming down from the DT. My prior set up had circulation pumps aimed towards the surface for aeration. My corals have grown in the past 2 weeks...

I have a mag 9.5 hank.

Its not the circulation inside that worries me, its the return pump pressure vs the drain tube size that worries me. encouraging statement that makes me want to get a ball valve now To answer ur question, i want the use of the full pressure of about 700gph (950 pump with a 4ft head) to use...

I didnt know that You think its undersized?? Im not an engineer or physicist but my thought process tells me that applying downward pressure to something that is coming up can cause wear and tear :hide: ....lol on a side not some1 gave me the idea of converting the return tube into...

A guy in staten island was giving away his 65g reef ready tank because his house was patially flooded. I ended up picking it up from him and cleaning it up. I noticed it has only 1inch drain tube with a 3/4inch return. My question is that i have a mag9.5 pump and i was wondering if its going...

Thanks for the assurence. How about the vynal tubing??

like the title states, is the home depot pvc and tubing reef safe? The guy @ the home depot that was helping me out told me not to use it (fellow aquarist). He told me to go to my local pond store and get the pvc and/or tubing from there

Do you guys/girls have a problem keeping small schools of blue/green chromis?? Ive had 3 different 3-4 fish schools of chromis and each one of them die on me. This is over a 6 month period or so. I have 4 different types of fish (clown, royal gramma, purple firefish, cardinal) in the tank and...

did you replace all the water or did you use the existing water?? it was 3 day process?? I was hoping to finish it in one day but i guess better be safe than sorry and spread the rebuild out

Im taking my tank down to rebuild it with in the next week. I got a diamond hole saw for a 1 1/2inch bulk head, mag 9.5 pump, all plumbing, build a new 20g long fuge and i plan on replacing the substraight too. I have all the needed parts, but im wondering what my best plan of action should...

I ended up using the .093 acrylic instead of the .220. figured it was a bit more easier to work with. the refuge came out pretty good IMO for my first time :D I saw that lowes had 4" x 4" sheets of glass for like $7 :eek:. My ownly concern was that if my measurements wasnt spot on, it would...

Im going to be using the .220 thickness plexiglass lindsay. The .093 thickness is too thin/flimsy in my opinion besides i plan to make a overflow with the remaining plexiglass
