My new used skimmer. Should do the job :)

Looking for thoughts and ideas on DSB's . I am looking into having a dsb in my display tank around 4-6 inch deep. I am not planning on having a refugium in my sump at this time. Does anyone put macro algae in their overflow for protection to grow?

Cool thanks Carey for the insight. Glad to hear someone else knows it works good

sump that was used with my aquarium by previous owner. still figuring out how to place it under the tank and how to plumb it up with protein skimmer. Looking at getting a precision marine bullet XL 2 and a couple iwaki pumps

question about stands. anyone out there using a 4 foot TALL stand for their aquarium? I am thinking about building one this height. Thinking it would be easier to view inhabitants than bending one's back to look. What are your thoughts. I have thought about it tipping easier but the stand will...

From what I figure it's a little over 112 gallons. 15 cubic feet x 7.48 = 112 Odd size shape not standard

Thanks! Well i am not for sure yet on fish. I def like yellow tangs indo pacific tangs Achilles tangs clowns and maybe some others. They will have to be reef compatible though as I plan on doing that down the road

Oh yea siphoning works

Holding water! Now the fun part of getting it all out...

Oh forgot to add that the tank dimensions are 5x2x2. I am looking at either building my own stand or buying . Any suggestions of stores, online sites with stand instructions, etc?

Hi there my name is Andy. I introduced myself in the new member section a week ago. I just purchased a used 150 oceanic tank on Craigslist. It is a custom made tank with one overflow at the end with four 1" and 3/4 drains/intake. In the pics you can see I am cleaning it with water/ vinegar mix...

Okay I'm confused. I understand your dimensions of 6x26"x18" this way. 26 inch high and 18 deep. That's taller than 24". The tank I am looking at is 24" inch high. I thought 29 " or higher is considered a high tank. The standard 120 is 24" high...

Okay thanks for the ideas!

crister13 what dimensions is your 150 gallon tank? I am looking at a 150 reef tank on craigslist. It's 5 foot x 2 x 2.

I meant in last post will the height difference between the two make much difference in lighting for corals , invertebrate etc.

Thanks for the replies! Will def have to do some more research into reef tanks and lighting requirements. You all do understand my question about the height difference with the 180 being 24" and the 210 at 29 " or 30" not sure exact. So this t5 light is this MH also or something different.
