LOL,,,,,small world. I am going to order some dry base rock from Marco Rocks for my aquascaping then place live rock around it. I am leaning toward Fijji right now. Livestock will be reef safe fish,inverts,sea apple,soft corals,and SPS. It will be a work in progress for awhile. Thanks, Jeremy

Welcome to AA

I just read the article and hope all goes well with my fish. Roka has mentioned, in this thread, the raw shrimp as well. I went with the live sand so I could cycle with live fish with less chance of death. In my prior reef, a 55gl, I cycled with Damsels and none passed away. I guess I didn't...

Thanks Ziggy. Dimensions are 72 x 18x 28 Well a little dishearted about the FX5. I just bought it new and filled it with media, so I will try it untill I need to switch. I am planning on a large skimmer and 4 more power heads(for flow). I was hoping the FX5 would be good. I did go...

Welcome

I don't want to say price point and convieniece isn't a factor, but I wasn't sure if the quality and depth of light would be better. Money is always a factor but the time frame from new bulb to replacement should be long enough a couple extra bucks will be ok. The ability to change bulbs and...

Thanks again for all the response on my previous posts, but I have one more question.....For Now. My tank is 72" x 18" x 28". I will be going with a T5 Mounting System with HO and Led. Would it be better to use 2x36" or 1x72" Systems. The price will not be to much more or less either way...

I took a look and you have a great set up. What are your thoughts on the Nova Extreme T-5 Fixtures w/Lunar Lights and/or the HQI Metal Halid Compact FLuorescent with Lunar Lights. I am going to try to do an open top aquarium with hanging or low profile lighting fixtures. With the canopy what...

I have a 150gl (72x18x28) aquarium. As of now it is filled and I have only added the salt. Once I put in my substrate and base rock I will be looking to replace the lighting. The tank will house, when finished, Live Rock, Fish, Soft Corals, and SPS Corals. I want to start with the...

I'll try it. Any other help or suggestions are always welcome and appriciated.

Thanks for the info Roka. When you say unseasoned are you talking about the kind I would buy at my local groc. store to eat? If so do I just put it in the tank as is? Should I put in the base rock in as well at that time for the cycle?

Hello all and thanks in advance for the advice. I have just set up a 150gl tank on 9.14.01. As of today I have filled it and added my salt, no substrate or base yet. I am running a new Fluval FX5 for filtration and my lights are crap( will be going with MH). I am going for a Full Reef...
