    Setting up a new Tank

    No sump, just 2 marineland hang on back filters, enough for 100 gallon tank. What about my old tank, I still want to use it for a quarantine tank. It has some great coralline all over it. How long can I keep it ok with no water in it?

    Setting up a new Tank

    I currently have a 15 gallon nano tank that has been up and running for over a year now. I'm hoping to move everything into a 30 gallon tank for some more room and more fish. Everything is perfect right now with water parameters. My questions are how can I transport everything into the new tank...

    Nitrates

    I'll have to get a second opinion from my lfs thanks for that. I'm not familiar with an algae scrubber, how involved are they? Does anyone know how long the nitrates take to drop to acceptable levels, after installing a sump?

    I don't care for the fluval line. I have had some problems with it. I don't have any pics yet

    Nitrates

    Ok, I was thinking of doing like a 35-40% pwc. Is that to much or do you think it will do the trick. I was also thinking of taking a lot of live rock out and vacuuming all of the sand thouroghly.

    Nitrates

    Hello all. I've had my 75 gallon tank running for about 7 months now. All my levels are great except for my nitrates, I can't get below 40-60. I do 15% water changes every week, I do not over feed and my tank is not overstocked. I have a 20 gallon sump running (with a skimmer and uv sterilizer)...

    What kind of media do you typically run in your canister?

    Is it possible that the canister will hold in the nitrates?

    Hang on back filter vs. protein skimmer

    I have 3 small damsels, 1 small yellow tang, a green wrasse, a snowflake eel & a small Niger trigger. Do you think I'm over feeding them?

    Hang on back filter vs. protein skimmer

    I normally feed them twice a day a combo of krill, pellet & brine shrimp. So you do think the Bio-wheel emperor is a better fit then a skimmer?

    Hang on back filter vs. protein skimmer

    Hello everyone, I'm new to the hobby and have just built a FOWLR tank. My tank is a 75g setup with a fluval 305 canister filter, uv sterilizer, 55lb lr (more coming), 1 power head & a emperor 400 hob. I was wondering if a nice protein skimmer would be better to run then the emperor? All levels...
