Do I need to use acrylic to force the water to flow thru the shelves? A drawing or step by step for a succesful one I guess is what I am asking for. Thanks for your reply!! Walt

I have the material, just don't know how to make one. Walt

Anyone willing to share instructions for making a media rack for my 24g Aquapod? I want to build one, but am unsure how to proceed. Thanks Walt

No it is a 24 gal tank. Walt

OK thought you might like an update! Inhabitants: 6 Blue Legged Hermit's 4 Nassarius snails 2 Lg Turbos 2 Sm Turbos Tomatoe Clown Green Star Polyp Xenia Things seem to be going well, chemistry seems good, algea mostly gone. http://www.reefbuzz.com/mybuzz/wdp67/Sept_18__20083.JPG...

Ok Tested my water this morning, and 0's across the board after having way higher readings earlier in the week, so I went to the LFS which is a Saltwater only store where I bought my tank, and had them check it. Hurray!! they said I was ready for the CUC. I got 2 turbo snails, 4 Nassarius(sp)...

ok thanks!! Walt

Thanks for the info!! Do I need to wait before I put them in still or do you think I can put them in now?

I do not have any fish yet, cycle is getting close to being finished, but there are 3 mushrooms and a few polyps on the live rock that apeared after a couple of weeks. I am trying to be patient but it is getting really hard. In the last couple of days the algae really started growing, and the...
