That looks awesome. I think the more blue makes it look absolutely amazing. Have you had any problems with your emerald crab as far as your coral stock goes?

That's cool. I have a similar 10 g set up and I'm working on 125 its just so expensive. But I'm running LEDs on mine too but I'm new to LEDs.

Cool tank. What kind of light are you running on it? Itd be cool to see some more pictures of it.

Excellent thanks. If i were to do that id like to do a pair of platinum's and black percs. Now i just have to figure out what else to put in it. Haha this should be fun. Im utterly clueless.

Iv currently got a 125 long tank thats empty. Its up and cycled which took about 3 week using everything from my 30 fowlr. Id really like to get 2 pairs of clowns but have been hearing alot of different things from ppl about weather or not to mix clowns. Has anyone done thia or had any luck? Thanks.

Awesome. I really like the toadstool mushrooms but some people have told me they need moderate to high light intensity. What do you think about one of those considering my lights. Also i had another question. Currently on my 30 gallon fowlr my lights run about seven and a half hours. For corals...

Thanks. Yeah i was thinking the same thing about cutting corners. I figure i could just set it up as fowlr then as time goes on and i save up for a while ill just go all out and get good leds. And if these lights could support beginner corals ld like to do that. Do you have any suggestions? Ill...

So iv been looking at light's for my new 125 gallon tank that im putting together and found one for an amazing price so i bought it. Lol i know i should have asked prior to paying but oh well. My tank is 72 long 18 wide and 23 deep. The light iv got is 72 long with 2 96watt 12k white bulbs, 2 96...

Thanks. But yeah I was hoping I didn't need a skimmer and doing pwc more often won't be a problem so ill deff be doing more of them. And I was lookig at the t5s and the leds. I would love to go with leds because from what iv heard there amazing and with out having to replace bulbs I think the...

Iv been tossing a lot of ideas around. Looking at pros and cons of nano tanks and then larger tanks. I'm pretty sure iv decided to just upgrade my 30 gallon folwr to a reef tank. But I have virtualy no experince with corals. I do 40% pwc every two weeks and my parameters are pretty consistant...

Iv read all kinds of stuff on google and have heard tons of diffrent stuff about clown plecis mixing with cichlids. Pretty much iv come to the conclusion that its a 50/50 chance. But seeing as how I trust everyone here on AA and have seen by far the best advice and sugestions right here I'm...

If you don't mind me asking what kind and how many? But what kind of pump does it use? Is it one with the built in filter?

As far as the house of tropics go they do have a big selection but I would advise going somewhere esle of your willing to drive that far. Iv been going there for a while and recently iv noticed their care level is almost non exsistant. I watch ppl "clean" their tanks last week. It was pitiful...

1+ on the really really good filtration. Lol I would make sure you have a lot of rock. Plenty of cave and holes for your fish to take refuge. I know your not asking about stock but IMO 10 G is deff way small for cichlids. Maybe you could get a bolivian ram. 2 tops but even with that your looking...

Hey im sorry to hear your having problems. =\ i cant say iv ever had your problem but With that small of a tank your way over stocked and majorly under filtered. I'm sure that has a lot to do with the high trites and trates. I had just three yellow labs in a 20g (76 l) tank with a penguin 350...
