    Lighting system

    Currently I am using an aquatic life t5 4 bulb lifting system. I have had a lot of trouble with the timer and replacement timer sent to me from aquatic life. I pretty much have no control over the lights unless the system is set to "auto" and runs through the pre determined cycle. I am thinking...

    Blue spotted puffer and ich

    So My last blue spotted puffer was taken out by a LARGE hitchhiker crab I did not know was in my tank. After months of waiting I finally found another at my lfs. They had him in a tank with blue lights on and I didn't notice these spots/what I suspect to be ich until I brought him home. I just...

    Protein Skimmer

    I'm at 10but I want to be at zero consistently plus taking a little load off with the water changing amount and frequency might be nice as well

    Protein Skimmer

    I was also thinking that. My nitrates are low however not completely at 0 which is why I was beginning to lean towards one. My tank currently has 50lbs live rock a blue spotted puffer, a goby, an umbrella leather and a lobo so it's pretty light as far as livestock goes.

    Protein Skimmer

    Hey thanks for the input! That's awesome I think I'm going to get one today, it certainly can't hurt to have one so why not just do it right?my main concern was me just not having a large enough tank to really get any real benefit from using one.

    Protein Skimmer

    So I have been doing a lot of reading as well as researching and am at the point where i need to ask for some Input from everyone. I currently have a 55g tank with 50lbs live rock. I do 20% water changes every week. I am curious as to if I need to add a good quality skimmer or not. I figured...

    Unfortunately I think the timer/digital control needs to be replaced. I have heard aquatic life has really good customer service but I'm a little worried that since I bought this from a lfs they may not be willing to replace it. Any ideas on what their policy is or how Long they cover them for...

    Mandarin Goby

    So I was recently ill advised by someone at my LFS who I never have dealt with before. Usually the person at the store I deal with is very helpful and informative. Long story short I ended up purchasing a mandarin goby with no idea what I was getting into. I admit a lack of research on my part...

    Help with time on aquaticlife 4 lamp T5 HO & LED PLEASE

    That would be amazing. The lights came right off a tank that was no longer being used in the shop so I didn't get any directions. I did try googling them and found what I believed to be the directions but when following be instructions nothing was working. Maybe yor instructions are different...

    Help with time on aquaticlife 4 lamp T5 HO & LED PLEASE

    I recently purchased this lighting system from a woman who owns a local salt water store. She said she had used it but everything was working fine blah blah blah. The lights do turn on with no issue and I am able to move the white and blue lights to the on off or auto modes. However when I try...
