I am sorry reefing community for wasting your time, as for the owner of the tank, just all of a sudden drew out of a deal he already made with me, I am feeling as if I have had the the whole month I've spent with nothing but asking questions and getting replies but I am really hurt from this...

Well the quantity and types of cuc I'll be getting, are going to be sufficient for the algee growth in a 125g

Also am I completely out by thinking they'll repopulate if they're fed a consistent algee source?

Okay, he's changed the desk on me now, 200$ for the tank and all the equipment, and 200$ for the RODI, so the change is that now there's no fish going with it, so I'm planning a clean up crew, add I'm talking to a local fish supplier, and he is telling me this isn't enough...

Well, it appears I am in a little too deep over my head, I have located a guy in my local reef group, messaged him, and he is willing to sell me a 220 gallon tank that has everything, all the fish, lights and a sump and a refugium, all of this for 400$ (300$ usd!) All I need is a return pump or...

Far right you have what is called a black phantom tetra.

Oh and keep in mind this is all in CDN

He said his lights had a built in fan and were really valuable

Friday May 19th, Went to the local used fish out of home store guy, and I was trying to quote everything out, he said I'd need two power heads for each side of the tank, (60$) a big one for a mixing bucket (10$) two thermometers from him, one for the mixing bucket and one as a back up in the...

Thursday May 18th, Have completely cleared all substrate, salt and love rock stuck to the bottom, and have just finished a 14hr soak of 100gallons of water to 4L of vinegar and now it is sitting full of just tap water to rinse the vinegar out.

I really don't have any knowledge of whether this is a tempered glass tank or not... I was thinking an over flow would a way more sustainable method?

Why would you make your tank deeper that 2 feet it's such a long reach all the time ?

Someone is selling these lights on my classifieds, I know they say 10 gallons, but I have seen people with two different lights attached on two different ends, would this work for my 100 gallon?

Okay! I have been super busy this weekend and it took me quite sometime until I got some time, anyways I have just finished scooping out all the substrate so, go me! And I was thinking about sifting through and taking the large bits of gravel out along with the glass marbles, just leaving the...

So last night I have taken the bleached coral and some of the substrate down to a point where it's solid to the bottom of the tank,so I let it soak out over night. Thinking it will break down and be soft by the time I get home. Then I should be able to scoop out some more. Also, will the seals...

Okay sweet! I was thinking about purchasing this overflow box, http://www.aquacave.com/cpr-cs100-deluxe-aquarium-overflow-box/reviews/ are they usually this expensive? Also, building a full pywood sump for this tank, how many gallons should I go for? Specific dimensions? Return pumps? Any...

Okay forsure, thank you what is the dynamic of having a canister filter ( it comes with the tank) should I just sell the canister and use the money for the sump and overflow box?

I need help to get started with a reef tank my neighbors have had, I have heard different stories and noticed different things about it. The story of what I heard from the husband is that he wanted to keep lobsters in it, grow them up, breed them then eat them, however he learned how many years...

Okay, thank you so much I will be ordering the one from Amazon for the tank, will let you know how it does

Nicrew LED Aquarium Light, Fish Tank Light with Extendable Brackets, White and Blue LEDs, Size 20 to 27 Inch, 11 Watts https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01C84SLRO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ebiezbR96PBFA

So I understand that when you're reefing you require so many BTUs, and well I was wondering if a light like this would be sufficient enough or if I should be using T-5s let me know, thank you.

So at a very early age into this hobby (6 months) I have contracted MTS!!! (multi tank syndrome) and I have been very lucky and patient with my fresh water (75 gallons) have a beautiful planted semi agressive tank, and I am wanting to start salt water, have done a couple days of research as well...

So I was wondering the strength differentials between low iron glass, clear, and tempered.or is acrilic a much better way to go.

I'm just not going to mention about my new 180gal reef I'm planning on setting up this week

Yeah if your test levels are good I would let the water cycle and for me, whenever I have a water change, I move water out a couple days before and let it sit and go flat so the fish don't get all the crap my local water treatment dumps into make our water acceptable.
