    DaveMc's 36g Bow Front Build

    That skimmer is pretty good, I used to have one. Only issue with it is you have to make sure the water level is on par with the water line on the skimmer and you have to replace the air stones a little under every month. Sent from my iPad using Aquarium A

    It's been running for a about 2 weeks but it was a used model so it had been run for a while by the previous owner.

    Remora pro pump?

    I used zip ties instead and that's been working well, I have it set to the highest setting and it still produces really wet skimmate . Is there any way to change that?

    Remora pro pump?

    So far mine has been producing a lot of wet skimmate. Good thing mine came with a drain plug.

    Remora pro pump?

    Recently purchased a remora pro online, it's coming with a maxi-jet 1100 and wanted to get some opinion on whether the pump is good? I have a 36 gallon tank. Also if anyone already has the remora pro? Where would be a good place to get a replacement o-ring for the collector cup?

    Skimmer question

    Heard good things about both octopus and eschopps, saw that seaclone for $60 and wanted something around that price range.

    Skimmer question

    The one I have uses an air stone, it does ok but not without a lot of tweaking. I wanted to upgrade to something with a pump that maybe needs less tweaking.

    Anemone sucked up by canister filter help!

    My anemone was sucked up by my canister filter a couple days ago, it looks like he's really damaged but still opening up at times. I don't know if he's going to make it, should I take him out of the tank? I'm currently leaving my tank empty except for him due to an Ick outbreak. Any suggestions...

    Does my fish have Ick?

    Thanks for the advice, unfortunately he didn't make it. Still have the one strong clown though. I almost forgot I have a small crab that always hides in the rock. It would be ok to leave him too right? Just wanted to make sure.

    Does my fish have Ick?

    Thanks for the info, i have my two clowns in the qt tank now. One may not make it the other seems good though. I was wondering though can I keep the anemone in my main tank while I let the tank fallow for 2 months?

    Does my fish have Ick?

    I have two clowns and an anemone in the tank, when I got the first clown it ate everything and went after food(next to anemone). The 2nd clown I got at a later date seemed ok when I first got it but it never ate anything I gave it(next to spongebob). The 2nd clown I have now looks like it has...

    Taotronics intensity?

    I just purchased the taotronics dimmable led lights and I've gotten them hung up, was wondering what intensity would be the right level? I have a bubble tip in there now that was hiding at first I have it set to about 25% now.

    Powder blue thoughts

    I really love powder blue tangs, I've wanted one for some time now. What size tank is the smallest anyone would recommend for a small one that could grow in it for a while? I currently have a 36 gal so I know I can't have one. Just a thought for when I decide to get a larger tank
