Ok so I have finally got my nitrates down from over 180 to in between 10 and 20, the PH is 8.2, the ammonia is 0, the nitrite is 0, and the phosphates are 0. I have ripped internal overflow out and now I am just wondering if it is time for fish?! What kind of fish should I start with since I...

I was afraid of something like this! how can I stop the internal overflow? What else do I need to get to have this tank with a sump?

Speaking of help...I need more :) do I even need that dark plastic piece? Could I just hang the back part on like this and everything work correctly?

oops sorry about that, thanks for the help!

that is great! thanks! Looks like its time for a trip to home depot! I will let you know when its done or I get confused again! :)

that helps alot! thank you so much, I figured that I would have them backwards or something! What about the overflow? I have no idea how that is supposed to work?

I have a 90 gallon and a 40 gallon I am thinking that this setup will go on the 40 gallon b/c I want to have low to medium light corals and fish. Is that not a good skimmer?

Thanks so much guys!! :D

you can just use regular people food?! are there any other threads about what to feed the fish? how offen do you feed them that stuff?

Wow never even thought of that! Do you get the food from a LFS or can I get it online?

I feed them twice a day with the flake food, and once with frozen brine shrimp on the weekend. I haven't checked my dads tank yet, I will do that tonight. What should I be feeding?

the way it is now there are four of the blue damsels and a yellow tang in the 95 gallon and the smaller domino and blue (with yellow fin) damsel in the 40 gallon. I would like to move them all to the 95 gallon until I can get better water setup for the 40 gallon. (the hair alge is going crazy)
