    FL live rock too dense/not as interesting as Fiji/Tonga/etc?

    Howdy, So, I was pretty positive that I was going to do a big order from LR.com to fill my 55gallon with, maybe like 90 lbs. I started posting to a couple other forums and a few folks were commenting about how FL LR is much denser and not as interesting as Fiji/Tonga/Haitian LR. Is this true...

    MaxiJet 1200 vs. Maxijet 900

    Howdy, So, I won 3 MJ1200's in an eBay auction. They sent me 4 MJ900's. So, it's more gph, but will a MJ900 be powerful enough to run my Remora? If it is, should I keep the 900's or go through the hassel of getting the 1200's? Thanks

    How much will 80lbs of LR 'fill up' a 55gal?

    Simple question really, how much will 80lbs of LR (Keys and Gulf, 40/40 from LR.com) 'fill up' a 55gal aquarium? I know about the 1-2lb/gallon, but I'd rather not have my aquarium looking... barren. Thanks

    Such a thing as too much light?

    Howdy, I was just curious if there's such a thing as too much light for a reef tank? Specifically, it's a 48x21x12 55gal? I'm buying a new lighting system and am either going for 2x250 MH or 2x400MH plus 1 or 2 48"T12 tubes... Also, should I match the Temp of the two MH bulbs, and maybe put in...

    My first sw tank, my budget, your opinions, in Boston.

    Howdy folks, So, I want a salt water tank. I've been looking, reading, researching, and forum perusing for a week+ now, and I've decided it's time to commit (murder, on my wallett). In my mind, the mini-ecosystem that a Reef tank provides is the only way to go. Now, I've never had a SW tank...
