Are they quiet?

I am looking to replace (possibly) my Coralife Skimmer on my 120g. I would like a HOB skimmer that preferably has an external pump versus a pump that sits in the water. However, if that is not possible, I would like the lowest and most efficient pump. This has been a FOWLR tank, but I may be...

An ad for a Blue Tang on CL would be answered in a heartbeat. And even the lfs should have no problem getting rid of it quickly. As I said, the Yellow Tang would be the only one of the two that you have that I would put in a 55g. That also depends on how much filtration, skimming, live rock...

Now for an opposing position...:) I have two tangs.....a Blue Hippo and a Yellow Tang in a 4' tank. However, it IS a 120 gallon. This means that they have two foot back and four foot long. I know that longer is always better than depth, but depth DOES make a difference. (As the owner of two...

I don't think my eleven inch oscars would make it in a 75. The 120g is two feet deep versus 18" for the 75. The 120 is two feet high versus 18 or 20" It is significantly bigger. As for the trigger being too small for the 75g, I have read mixed on this. Being that they are a slow grower...

I did, too, but then I realized that I wanted a big of a variety as I could in my SW. Theoretically, yes. According to the books I have read, they are different enough. But I have not done it. I have a firefish, too, so I have avoided the scissortail for that reason. My lfs said they do fine...

I have a 75 gallon that is currently FW. However, I have had a 120g SW for over three years and finally feel comfortable with adding a second one. My first SW is FOWLR but I will be adding corals to it. As I look at my 75g, I am seeing the idea of a Picasso Triggerfish and maybe two more fish...

Check out some of the fairy or flasher wrasses. You can get a male and some females for a harem. It can be hard to get females sometimes. Also, some of the cardinals make good schools. The Pajama Cardinal fish would work with three to five fish. Question....why do you want a school of fish? I...

I agree with this. It was recommended to me by...an employee at VIPets. Overall, VIPets is good with pricing and selection, but I cannot agree that the employees are always so knowledgeable about the fish. I have both SW and FW. I went to the VIPets that is the main SW store, and the answers...

It seems not to be a problem anymore. I had a MJ900 with a modification right next to it, and I have since moved it (and taken the mod off). The temps seem to have stabilized.

Hello, I found this site doing a google search. I have posted a question which is important to me regarding protein skimmers. When I was younger, I had a basement full of aquariums. As I got older and moved out, they all were dismantled. Marriage and children kept me from really having any...

Hello, I have a Coralife 125 skimmer which is three years old. I use it as a hang over the back skimmer. I have no sump. Recently, I have noticed that it raises the temp of the water by a couple of degrees at most. Perhaps the motor/powerhead that drives it is going bad. My question is...has...
