    1.5 gal pico

    Everything sounds great except I one suggest only one small hermit and one or two small snails in a tank that size. As far as the type of shrimp, I would suggest a couple of sexy shrimp. They should host on of the corals, probably the hairy mushroom. Do you mind me asking where you are...

    Jesse's 12g AP w/70 watt Sunpod

    Hey Cris. Yeah I have quite the selection already. I am sort of waiting to move everything up into place because there are some corals that I dont have yet that I still want. And I want to be able to arrange the colors and stuff so they contrast nicely and all of that. You know, I dont want...

    Power head recommendations???

    Go with either the koralia 1 or 2. They both do essentially the same thing, however the koralia pumps are designed to move large amounts of water more gently using a more dispersed flow. The koralia pumps are going to feel weaker than the MJ1200 because the MJs have a very small outlet and the...

    New tank choice....i think

    The Solana is going to be at least $600 for the stand, tank, and MH fixture and that is if your LFS has outstanding prices. It is an awesome setup though.

    New tank choice....i think

    Go with the 24g AP with the 150 watt Sunpod for sure. You will LOVE the Sunpod... great little fixture and it has built in moonlights which are great. I have the 70 watter on my 12g AP and love mine. The 6 gallons wont make much of a difference. Oh and you'd be able to keep even a crocea...

    Problems with posting and creating new threads...

    Hello everyone. It appears that we care having some "technical difficulties" with the site right now. :comp I have seen a few people who posted responses that showed up 4 or 5 times, new posts aren't adding to member's post count, and it looks like there might even be a problem when some...

    Hey all you so cal people. I just wanted to let you know that there is now a society for people who keep nano reef tanks. It makes it a bit easier for people to find/meet people here in this area specifically. Check it out... www.scnrs.com Jesse

    ASM Mini-G

    Hey Phischy! I know that the ASM line is pretty good, but like Cris said I think the mini is a bit weak. The larger ones seem to perform pretty well for the cost. You might want to take a look at these: http://octopusskimmer.com/ I have heard that the build quality on the Octopus...

    Nice tank. I love the jawfish. How long have you had this tank set up? It has lots of coraline on the back! Jesse

    Jesse's 12g AP w/70 watt Sunpod

    Thanks... one of my favorites from Eddy's tank. Yes they are hardy as are most mushrooms. The color is amazing. That'd be awesome if I could get a frag from you Cris. And yeah hopefully I can stop by Sunday before the big game. Thanks Erik, I can't wait for it to mature. And Ed really...

    Jesse's 12g AP w/70 watt Sunpod

    Oh I have something now Cris! I would like to grab those frags from you. I should be able to come by this Sunday. You know what I am really missing is the neon green toadstool... do you still have that? Thanks again for holding the frags for me. Eddy (Edgray) really hooked me up... as...

    New Nano First Try...

    I dont think that a tank this small needs a skimmer at all. I think that water changes along with live rock can keep water chemistry very good in a nano tank. Many nanos have been kept very successful using only live rock for biological filtration, simple GAC (granular activated carbon) for...

    New Nano First Try...

    Yes the MJ1200 is 20 watts and creates a lot of heat. The MJ900 is less than half if I remember correctly. The other thing with hot tanks is you do not want the temperature to shift too much from day to night. So if your tank runs at around 32*C without the heater than you want to set the...

    New Nano First Try...

    WOW! That is hot! That's almost 90*F. What is the source of the heat?? If that is a maxijet 1200 on the skimmer, I would switch it to a MJ900. I would also consider running the tank with no skimmer and just rely on water changes. It is a cool little tank though. As far as fish go, I...
