as for the hood most of em 20bucks more n its the cost of the fixture im gonna end up buying and itd end up being wasted just sitting in a corner in the end of it

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

here's the cheapest Hood i could get do you think itd support any corals i can allways swap out bulbs thats no isue http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2754552&lmdn=Fish

Youre gonna need the glass canopy for that strip.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

right because its a strip not a hood that'd bring to total to 40+ not to happy bout that but it needs to be done il doo chores and ask for 20bucks and pick that stuff up. would that support any corals at all? id be williing to buy another bulb from petsmart

 

[carey]

You might be ok with softies. Zooa's and leathers.

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

ok that makes it better lol. what about buttons? also what bulb should i replace it with a coralife 5050 or a super sun 10000k thing

I know right? LOL sometimes it's easier since people are already here. I don't mind hopefully the moderators don't either

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

dosnt say im gonna assume it's a one bulb because of size ive seen it in person before dobut it could hold two bulbs so thats 31.99 for strip 13.99 for canopy 2-4.99 for light itl be a week or two before i can get the lights not that bad because i still gotta cycle and well you dont need light to cycle. and for amazon i found a salt box for IO salt makkes 25g for 6.99 is that a good price should i buy two? what else should i buy on amzon as well. sorry for the wall of questions ;p

 

[carey]

Check the shipping on that salt. I looked and it was almost as much as the item

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

oh wow....i was thinking of prime too
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00025694O/ref=mp_s_a_5?qid=1303657142&sr=8-5
il put em both in cart see what happens

 

[xxwolfpackof1xx]

id be 2.74 short if i got the salt and prime im dead set on the salt i mean that box will last awhile right? is there anything else i could replace it with or mabye a smaller bottle?

So back on topic

here are some shots of the rockwork. I think I'm gonna keep it like this at least til I get corals.

 

[Bettababe1011]

Do it! Or switch so I get more ideas for my own.

 

[carey]

I say now I'm not moving it again but we'll see how bored I get. When I do my pwc later on my 55g I wanted to change the setup in there as far as the rocks. I got soo many from reefcleaners that I had extra to add to the big tank. So, I might still end up with more rock or different pieces, haven't decided yet. lol

 

[Bettababe1011]

Lol. A few months seems like a long way to go. So I'll just live through this meanwhile. Donations anyone? Lol. JK, you don't even know where I live.

 

[carey]

The time will fly right by, you'll see. By the time youre ready you will know soo much about sw.

 

[carey]

So do you like the rocks? Should I make a more elaborate design? I want there to be alot of swimming room since I'm getting so many fish.

 

[Bettababe1011]

The time will fly right by, you'll see. By the time youre ready you will know soo much about sw.

Haha. That's how it went with fw, and I still had unexplainable deaths. Eep!! Hopefully I don't have the same problem with my sw tank. These fish aren't exactly going to be the price of a guppy!
