Yep, I got all that down pat....I just dunno whats up with him, he looks 100% ok now, his colors change alot... very strange

I have a tang, and i've had him for about....3-4 weeks now...he is with a Valentini Puffer, 2 Clowns, Mandarin Goby.....and thats it fish-wise...there is about....100-110 Pounds of LR in the tank now. And I just started to notice my Coal tang is getting a little lighter, and i'm not sure if he...

Wow! Sorry everyone, I didn't realize people were posting stuff for me! Anyways, i'm gonna clean out everything like you said, and its been running for about......2 days now, so I guess maybe its not broken in yet?

They are PCs 10,000k Ultra-Daylight and Ultra-Actinic in the 2-65 Watt ones (they are those special bulbs by SmartLite) and just a standard 40 watt flourescent in other one.....

OK, I have a Seaclone 100 Skimmer right now. When I first put it in, it immediately started skimming! Now today, its just making the little air bubbles on the top and flowing out. So no skimmate is forming anymore. Anyone have a solution?

AHH!! The stinky is gone! HOORAY! :D !! And I am getting my 55 all set up, a Marine Biologist from the University of Florida helped me get my spirits up and told me a TON of information, and I am forever grateful for him! He pointed me to all the right directions, and i'm incredibly happy...

Nope, its a brand new tank, and no I got it from the LFS. And it smelled as soon as I opened the bag. I guess its just cycling right now, which is good because its brand new. And i'm ordering my Live Rock (70 #s) from Liverocks.com......I used to get it from Tampa Bay Saltwater, but they are...

Ok, i'm setting up my 55g tank, and I added some Sand today and some Live Sand...everything was good until I added the live sand, it was the most stomach turning smell i've ever had the joyful experience of smelling.....I bought it 2 days earlier, and left it in the tank bagged until i got the...

ok, so i'm going to go with the 4-65 w PC lights........by Current USA.....So that means I can have everything but SPS and Clams?

I have a Seaclone Skimmer 100....so that will be plenty for the tank....So that good news to hear that i'm good then filtration wise!!! but MHs...those are starting to look very attractive because I have so much more room for options =D

I would like Halides...but the price makes it incredibly unattractive to me =((( If I could find what you have for around.....300-350 bucks, then maybe I would go for it, but I haven't been able to find anything reasonable yet.....Also, for filtration, I plan on having around 70-110 #s of LR in...

So, I can cut out the anemones, and just go with a 4-65 Watt CL or Current USA...DO you think that you could send me a link to one of those? I would like to order it ASAP

ok, its only been a month or so, and i've already gotten a bigger tank (uh oh....) And I want this one to be a full reef tank...so I bought the reef ready 55 g tank and stand...etc. So nowwwww....Lighting? what should I do? I just kind of want to buy an all-inclusive lighting package, if thats...

Well, I just wanted some soft Corals (mushroom...bubble)...1 or 2 anemones...and 1 Clam.....Thats pretty much all that I want, i'm not a big fan of the hard corals myself....Is there anything I could buy perhaps so that I could get better lighting?
