    To cut or not to cut?

    I bought mine from a cut, and it is doing fine in my tank. The guy who cut it said it is fairly easy to cut as long as your waters are in good condition. If this is your first time cutting an anemone, I would suggest cutting in half instead of trying to cut it in 4.

    Ziggy953's 150 Build errrr....120 Build

    Glad your cloudy water cleared up after a little time, mine took almost a week to clear to the point where I could see :).

    Ziggy953's 150 Build errrr....120 Build

    You could always do what I did, put wood board on the stand as a top, then shim the underside of the wood board where it is not touching the tank with playing cards. If its too big of a gap you would have to cut some pieces of wood to shim that spot until everything is even.

    My 75g upgrade after just 3 months of reefing :)

    Yeah got it fixed, I opened my drain line from a 1" all the way up to 2". So now there is bottleneck at the bulkhead but by the time the water reach the 2" line that goes to the sump, there is no gurgle and not that much air bubbles as well. I will post pictures tomorrow when I have time to...

    Schooling Fish For The Reef Aquarium

    I was thinking of doing the same thing in my 75, and I am split between chromis and anthias. Right now you can get a group of anthias on Ebay for a decent price. I am leaning on the anthias side, they are a little more expensive but nicer looking IMO.

    My 75g upgrade after just 3 months of reefing :)

    Nope top of T is completely open, I have a cap on it that I drilled 3, 1/4" hole so that air can escape, but I can also take the cap off completely. I would still get a gurgle every couple of minutes. I am thinking of taking that T off and go with one of those %45 Ts, and also upgrade to a...

    My 75g upgrade after just 3 months of reefing :)

    Alright got my sump in and working. But a slight problem, could you guys take a look and see if I am doing anything wrong? Whats happening is I am getting a gurgling sound like water is being held back at the T when I try to boost the return up a bit. Right now I have the valve open...

    Need help settling debate with wife

    they could come on some frags you got also. I got at least 3 on the frags that I purchase and on trades. They are really small at first, I believe that they are whitish also when small. They don't get their dark color until they get a bit bigger.

    Frogspawn Fragging?

    You can use a jig saw to cut the skeletal part also. I did that when I got the 3 head frogspawn that was full of aptasia, worked out pretty well for me using it.

    Goofy Clownfish

    mine floats flat on its side on the top corner of my tank when the lights go out. Did that in my 40, and now in my 75.

    My 75g upgrade after just 3 months of reefing :)

    I appreciate the concern cccapt, but I looked at that center brace before doing that. And I think that the integrity of the tank is still there even after drilling the holes. But to be on the safe side I will glue down a strip of acrylic to not have any mishaps. Here are some pics just as...

    My 75g upgrade after just 3 months of reefing :)

    Cmor is right my tank did cycle, but it only lasted a few days. It could have lasted longer but I only started to test after about 2 weeks and only took me about 4 days for all the traces to reach near zero. I finally transfered my 40 over to the 75, took 2 days to do it though. I only have...
