I had planned on buying the potassium Nitrate (5-20 ppm lower if I have red or colored plants, about 1000-2000 g in 500ml of water) potassium sulfate (15 ppm, 3150 g in 500 ml of water) mono potassium phosphate (0.5-1.5 ppm, 72-144 g in 500 ml of water) and Plantex csm+b for trace minerals...

Anyone know of a good place to buy chemical fertilizers in phoenix, AZ or online? I just found gregwatson.com they seem pretty good. Anyone know if they are, of anywhere else online, or any good LFSs

Thanks for the great info!!! Looks like a 50 50 or 96 watt will be a great way to start this new aspect of the hobby. I like that Glossostigma skulljug, it is really tempting me to go with the 96 watt and higher light plants. Looks like a have some more research to do on these fetilizers and...

Height: 16.5 Length: 36 Width: 10.5 all in inches

I would prefer not to jump in to too advanced of plants right away. YOur 50/50 bulb idea would be able to keep me down with these plants right ( i read that akinic lights don't do anything for plants)? I am just trying to find a way to start this tank without having to buy a new light setup.

Thanks for the quick respose! Good thing on those anubias as in my aquascaping plans they were going to be under/around some driftwood. I figured the amount of light would open me up to some more intermideate to advanced plants but I would only go for Ludwigia at the most probably What ppm...

I have done saltwater and some cichlid tanks but I wanted to try out planted. I have a left over 36" 2 x 96 watt coralife aqualight. I was wondering if I could use that on a new 25 planted tank. I would only use one 96 watt 10,000 k daylight bulb in it, giving me around 3.8 watts per gallon...

There was a movie a IMAX that had this same concept. Very interesting.

Thanks for the info, that is unfortunant I guess I will look into some other ideas

I am not set on this I am just throwing this idea out to get a feel for it. Thank you for the info I would hate to restrict the fish like that and I wouldn't want to push it. Has anyone else had any experience with dwarf lionfish maybe Fu Manchu lionfish as they reach only 4" according to...

Thank you I don't plan on grabing the fish and the sting is like a more powerful bee sting according to my friend who had one and only made the mistake of getting stung once in 3 years so far.

yes

I was recently able to obtain an 25 gal tank 36 x 10.5 x 16.5 (L x W x H) and a 10 gal for next to nothing. My question is whether this would be sufficent enough for a dwarf lionfish species FO tank I would like to have one as they are beautiful and are full of personality. This is what the...

Thanks that looks like an pretty good option.

wouldn't it be more reliable to have it drilled though? so I don't have to worry about siphon breaks.

Also I would have it drilled pretty high on the tanks so It wouldn't take more than a few inches of water.

Thanks for the input.

anyone?

I bought a Top fin 46 gal bowfront tank and I was wondering if I could drill the back of the tank (instead of getting an overflow). The problem is that on most bowfront tanks there is a sticker on the bottom that says " TEMPERED GLASS do not drill the bottom of this tank" but on mine the...

anything else?

thanks. I'm glad it looks good. This is what I came up with after about 5-6 months of research. This site has really helped.

Overflow. Bow front tanks have tempered glass.

Thanks in advance for any responses

I am creating a 46 gal bf reef tank I have done quite a bit of research but I would like to hear any comments on things I may be missing or any criticizims of the setup. Tank: 46 gal bow front Lighting: Coralife lunar aqualight 36" 2x96 compact strip light w/2 lunar lights Protien Skimmer...

what happens when a DSB "crashes"?
