I would assume that you can probably get a good 3-5 hours of usage.

nice photo

if you are going to cure it anyway then smell doesn't matter either. Smell is really only to make sure that you aren't getting rock with decaying matter on it. When you cook it, you use the lack of light and time to kill off anything living in/on the rocks so you will end up with decaying...

I can't say for sure because I have never had an aquapod before. I would suspect a bad bearing in the fan or the fan not being securely fastened to what ever is holding it. I would try and fix the latter first and see if that works.

The top one looks like some type of pod. I'm not at home so I can't search it more, atleast until I get back tonight. The lower one looks like what I get on the glass of my tank and I believe that it is a form of tube worm or feather duster as most call them. I will try and research these a...

interesting and thanks for posting.

i would think that you could use any type of fan. i'm not exactly sure since i don't have an aquapod

6500k will promote algae growth so i wouldn't recommend it

Here is a quick breakdown of some of the components that you will need and an estimated price Live rock - $3.50-6.00 per pound a 10g tank will need about 10lbs Sand - $30/50lb bag this will depend on how deep of a sand bed you want RO/DI unit - $100 most people need these RO/DI Holding...

I do hope that your overall budget is above $150. The biggest mistake that most people make is underestimating how much a system will cost. It's the little items that add up pretty quick (like heater, filter media, salt, test kits, refractometer, temperature probe, food, supplements, RO/DI...

link?

Can you guys post a link to the lime juice you are speaking of? All I can think of is the fake imitation lime juice in the plastic lime looking bottle.

i have no idea on price but don't use those white plastic plugs. They are nearly impossible to get to stay in place (on rocks or wedged between rocks), even the aragonite plugs are hard to get to stay without glue. IMO, your best bet is to glue them to a rock or get them to grow on the rock.

bristle worm

it's aiptasia. If it's not then I have been removing them for no reason...lol

Sounds like you lost a lot of your beneficial bacteria. The first step I would do is bump your temp up to around 80°F. What type of mechanical filter are you running? If you are running one, change/rinse your filter pads weekly. Changing the carbon in the filter bi-weekly wouldn't hurt...

Flat worms are only dangerous in large numbers if you get a large die-off of them. I have some in my tank (as I'm sure many others do too) and they provide my six line wrasse with some good food.

I honestly don't think you will notice the difference between the normal glass and low-iron glass once you get water in the tank and some algae on the glass.

I used to follow the 1-1.5lbs/gallon method but you soon learn that if you use Fiji rock that it will take up a lot of space. I would put in as much as you like. 12lbs should cover it but be sure to leave room for more rocks because most frags that you get will be on rocks.

Use a razor blade and cut the mat where you want to frag it. Then take a screwdriver/chisel and a hammer and break the rock where you cut the mat. Most coral are pretty hardy and can handle being fragged. You may loose a few polyps in the process but it should recover pretty quickly.
