    Reef aquarium is eletricuting me

    I did not mean to imply that he do nothing and just get the probe, I meant get the probe to help prevent further issues. I have several friends who include those in this business 20+ years as well, and they all recommend the probe, so I guess its a matter of opinion.

    My new 220 gallon

    That's not cheating...its called working smarter, not harder. I do the same thing from 32 gal brute in my garage as well as pumping the water out of my sumps for water changes... :)

    Excessive corals?

    I wouldn't go that far. Just take your time adding the recommended amount, make sure everything is doing well. Then you can adjust when needed. I do not know of any benefit to "overdosing" chemicals or for that matter, any negative affects from it.

    If you do not already have one, get a grounding probe for your tank. It will save your livestock in case of an electrical charge. Just my 2 cents....

    Excessive corals?

    I agree with x...just make sure you are testing frequently for calc, mag and alk. I am sure you will need to make adjustments once you add all that coral.

    Can you put 2 yellow tangs in one tank

    Adding anything after a yellow tang can be problematic due the territorial nature of the yellow tang, not just fish of the same shape and color. Obviously not all yellow tangs are going to have the same personailty, however, in general that's just how they act. In my case, I added my yellow tang...

    My 125 reef in progress tank

    Oh yeah, one more thing. I hated having to take my light of the tank whenever I wanted to do something with it. I have an aqualight pro fixture on stands, so I bought a hanging kit and suspended it from the ceiling. I used decorative chain instead of the ugly steel cable that comes with it. Here...
