    For Sale: 120 reef setup for sale

    reef to FOWLR

    I hate to give up but just no success with SPS corals. Most recently bought 5 SPS frags two months ago and none are doing good and almost dead, I think. I believe I have all the right equipment to be successful which is why I'm so frustrated. My system has been running for about 4 years and...

    reef to FOWLR

    Well, just kind of thinking about it right now for a few reasons. One is that I've been trying a reef for a little over 4 years now and just not having any success with SPS corals. Two is cost, both in the coral cost and electrical cost for running those MH lights. Lastly but probably most...

    reef to FOWLR

    I have a 120G reef setup with all the fixings. I'm thinking of switching to a FOWLR and trying to figure out what equipment I won't need. I assume metal halide lights are not required for a FOWLR but is there any recommended lighting? In a FOWLR is it necessary to dose with kalkwassser to keep...

    dwarf angel compatibility

    under their descriptions for dwarf angels, Marine Depot Live states that two pygmy angels can be kept in the same tank as long as it is larger than 75 gallons. I've never seen this stated as the case before. Has anybody had any success in doing so? My tank is 120 gallons and I just love dwarf...

    bleached corals

    I lost power for a few days so nothing was running on my tank. The temp got down into the 60's and there was a definite lack of oxygen since several of my fish died. Power is now on again but 3 SPS corals (Millepora, Acropora and Bird's nest) the bottom half is bleached (white). I've done a few...

    sohal and chevron tang

    any chance a chevron tang and sohal tang could get along in a 120 gallon reef tank? If they would get along, is a 120g too small for both?

    Weight

    I was thinking of coverting my 55 gal to a reef but am getting hooked and am seriously thinking about buying a 90 gal or 120 now. My question concerns weight. The only really good spot to put a tank in my house would make it parallel with the floor joists. Is this acceptable for either the 90...

    New Tank - What Lighting

    is that true about the Hamilton having to be hung from the ceiling? I was looking at purchasing this exact light but if that's the case, may have to rethink and go with the coralife.

    Filter question

    thanks! I've read the article on Berlin filtration and think I understand it but it leads me to another question. My tnak has been running for about 2 years with 3 fish in it - a blue damsel and 2 clown fish along with a couple hermit crabs. I'm getting enough LS (fully cured) from a friend...

    Filter question

    I have a 55 gallon fish only that I'm converting to a reef. I'll be putting in LS & LR. My question is that my current filter is a Nova Conversion Filter-75 (yes, its old). It has several compartments that include a countercurrent protein skimmer, prefilter, carbon chamber, biological foam...

    switching to reef

    Hello everyone. First time posting here. I have a 55 gallon fish only salt water tank that has been running for about 3 years. I want to make it a reef tank. I have a local guy that can sell me LS & LR and I've already ordered 60 lbs of base rock from Hirocks. I'm figuring about 40 lbs of LR...
