    Added some rock...

    i have a quick question about when you are cycling with only live rocks in the tank. are you supposed to "feed" it with anything such as amonia or do you just leave it alone and let it do its thing? also do you still have to do water changes when its just rocks and no fish?

    i want to upgrade my lighting

    on a kinda related note, would it be ok to just get an acrylic or glass top sheet and set some regular flourescent lights like this on them? they look a lot like the flourecent lights you buy from fish stores, but a hell of a lot cheaper. here is the info they are only 13 bucks each.

    bought a used 100g tank, need some help identifying parts...

    can i use a 30gal. tall glass aquarium for a sump? what would i need for it, just a skimmer, filter and could someone reccomend me a good/cheap powerhead to use to get the water back up? also does the water return tube have to be pvc/piping or can it be a rubber hose?
