No. BTA = Bubble Tip Anemone...

Let's see... Here's one site that's frequently linked from here: http://www.melevsreef.com/allmysumps.html Now that I've worked with acrylic, I'd really like to build one like that guy does. It's very easy to cut and route. I didn't use the proper solvent/glue only because I wasn't concerned...

In my case I have a MAG 9.5 rated for 950 gph and an overflow rated for around 700 gph. So I was already diverting back into the sump prior to this set up. The flow is unobstructed (no valve) back to the tank. I set the amount of flow I wanted going through the fuge first. I really didn't...

Thanks... In the first area I just imitated my current wet/dry. So I removed all the bio balls from my other smaller sump and placed them on top of the eggcrate. I don't have enough established LR to rely on it for my complete filtration. Once the baserock seeds I should be fine if I want...

It's actually up and running now. However, the fuge only contains aragonite sand and water. I'll be adding the lighting, LR, macroalgae and other assorted lifeforms in the near future. It was almost up and running last night until I realized that I miscalculated the depth of my cabinet and I...

I completely understand. Every time I see a nice Powder Blue or Blonde Naso, thoughts like, "if I just take out that wall I could easily fit a 200 gallon tank in my dining room"...

It looks sensible to me. I thought about adding another tang to a 75 but decided against it. I have a good sized yellow tang now and thought about a regal blue but I'd hate to see it harassed by my favorite fish. Also, some think that a 75 isn't adequate enough for a hippo and while that's...

A Royal Gramma can be pretty territorial in a 30. But both of those other fish should be able to hold their own. I don't know what a flame angel would be like as an early addition because that is the last fish I added to my 75 gallon tank. But as such, that fish, just went about his business...

I like it better that way. Once you add some more rock to that to give it some more depth it will look great. I love having "caves". Something I did, that you might want to consider is building a "central cave" out of base rock that is siliconed together. Then you have a stable foundation to...

Thanks again guys... The drip tray is complete. I should have this thing done by the end of the weekend and cured and up and running in about a week...

Thanks Brian. To follow up... 1. If I were to consider getting a mandarin, do you think I should go without the UV filter? 2. Which type(s) of macro would my yellow tang and flame angel eat that would also be low risk of causing any problems? I'd consider running the light in the fuge...

I'm converting my 29 gallon tank into a sump/fuge for my 75 gallon setup. I've just completed buidling a new acrylic drip tray as I've decided to stay with the bio balls (moving them over from my current wet/dry). My plan is to run the flow through the bio balls (left side) into a center area...

I have one that I got as a hitchhiker on a piece of LR. Haven't seen him in a while...

I have a 75 gallon FOWLR but of course I'd prefer to go with a 125 or larger. But the 75 is more practical at the time. Inhabitants: Two false percs, a royal gramma, a yellow tang, skunk cleaner shrimp, a bunch of assorted hermits, an emerald crab, nassarius and turbo snails, a sandsifting...

The regular Remora is recommended for up to a 75 gallon tank. The pro for 75 and up. And you can get the Remora with the drain. I think you can also get the prefilter for the Remora, but I'm not positive. Anyway, it's a great skimmer. It's dimensions and shape give you a long collumn for...

I just bought an AquaC Remora. This is my first skimmer so I have no experience with any other brand. But it is quieter and more efficient than I hoped. I anticipated the micro bubbles and noise during the break in period but the bubbles subsided after a day or two and I didn't even notice...

Yellow tang.

I would not keep a regal blue tang in anything less than a 600 gallon tank. But then again, I am much more humane and thoughtful than most of you... Oh, and just kidding...

I've fed mine mysis shrimp and small pieces of uncooked cocktail shrimp. I don't feed it that often and it has never refused food...

I have two oscellaris clowns, a yellow tang, and a royal gramma in my tank and I've seen them all treat the back wall of the tank like an hors d'Oeuvre tray...

I've heard from many that the false perc is the hardest clown to get to host. And unfortunately my own experience supports this opinion...

:lol:

Thanks.

Sorry to jump in with another question here but, how quiet is the hang on back remora pro skimmer?

Is this the place you told me to try? :wink:
