thnx for the replies. I will be buying 2 strip lights 65W each. I plan to get rid of or make major modifications to the marineland eclipse hood.

What do you have in your SW ? After reading thru some of the posts here, and other sites, my understanding is that you could get away by not a protein skimmer but its better to have one. water changes are a must atleast 10-15% every 2 weeks to maintain good quality.

thnx for the response. thank goodness I didn't end up buying it. Anyway, this marineland eclipse equip really stinks. I don't think it was ever meant for reef. I plan to discard it and use glasstop and 2 65W strip light with NO skimmer for the time being. I shall faithfully replace 15-25% water...

Hi, I have a marineland Eclipse 3 system (29 gallon). Attempting to setup reef. so far a fully cycled tank with 1 shrimp, 1 clown, 1 damsel with 20 lb live rock. Spoke to a rep from Drfostersmith and was advised that the Bakpak 2R will not fit with the eclipse hood. They said the visi jet...

protein skimmer thnx for all the advice.. I probably will pick up the Prizm skimmer, but some of the reviews I read mentioned that the skimmer is noisy, dunno but thought lemme ask u guys. Another thing, I have a marineland Eclipse system (29 gallon). Do I need to drill any holes or cut thru...

Hi, Newbie and with limited $$, looking for a decent protein skimmer, preferably hang on tank types. Came across Seaclone 100 protein skimmer and wanted to know what you'll think of it? Is it effective for a 29 gallon tank. Approx - 25 lbs of LR 3 damsels, 1 tomato clown, 1 bicolor angel Btw...

adding substrate This is the same thing I did and made a complete mess of my tank. Atleast in your case u r starting out. It takes some time atleast give it 3-4 days. Leave the filter running and everything should be normal within 3-4 days. Check some other posts in the newbie forum. Quite...

substrate Hi Steve, Yep. absolutely right. I will definitely be on the lookout for any ammonia spikes. Anyway, things are much better now. My bicolor angel acted a bit funny in the begining when I introduced it back in the tank but now is doing ok. Eating as well.. Now the next step is...
