Tank still looks great mike, love those shots! Jesse

These kind of tanks make great clam tanks... wink wink Jesse

Awesome tank... REALLY looking forward to seeig this one develop. Jesse

Hmmm... we are back down to 1,688 members. lol oh well. Jesse

The spam seems to have stopped, is that due to the upgrade? Jesse

I have used both the T5's and MHs, I prefer the T5's. Is this a standard 24" long or 30" long 20 gallon? What are your goals for corals? T5s can actually penetrate better than MH and can EASILY support clams/SPS. And like Island said, drop the nano skimmer, they are junk. Jesse

Well, that camera has a 3cm macro like mine, you should be able to take decent close-ups. Have you played with the white balance and ISO? Granted, you probably wont get any of those crystal-clear single-polyped macros, but you shoudl be able to take some decent close-ups. I couldnt do...

Btw, they arent bad and are actually a sign of a healthy tank!

Probably a type of "pod" like an amphipod or copepod. Here is a pic of a copepod: http://www.bbsr.edu/biodiversity/creatu ... pepod.jpeg Jesse

Bubbles are pretty aggressive i believe. PLus, their flesh is pretty fragile. I have a B&W ocellaris and I love him. A pair probably isnt a good idea like you said, but a single one is great. Jesse

They are 55 watt power compacts like these: http://www.hellolights.com/505055w.html You can keep some low to medium light stuff like zoanthids, star polyps, shrooms, xenia, stuff like that. No SPS, clams, or other high-light stuff. HTH and :welcome to nanotank.com! Jesse

Any updates? Jesse

Sorry we all missed this post. I kept a peppermint with two croceas and all was well. I have never heard of them injuring clams.... doesnt mean that it isnt possible though. Are you sure it was a peppermint shrimp? Was the clam looking well before this incident? Jesse

Yeah, of the all-in-one tanks I would go with the JBJ Nanocube.... Although, I *almost* bought an Oceanic Biocube. Those look very cool too. Jesse

I bought GE's... got any pics of yours? Jesse

Is an all-in-one tank a necessity? Building your own tank, say a 10g, is a good way to get everything YOU want. BTW, :welcome to nanotank.com! Jesse

If you cant find anybody, check out www.socalcreations.com Jesse

Here is a 65 watter: http://www.1000bulbs.com/product.php?pr ... e+datafeed they go for about $25-$29 though, so dont know if it is worth it. Jesse

What wattage are the PC's that you are looking to run? I have a 65 watter on my refugium, but I think there comes a point of "diminishing return"... it may be cheaper to just buy a PC ballast if you are looking to run a 55/65 watter. Jesse

I cant take credit for this at all... I saw a couple other threads on another site... they should get the credit! There are many many different wattages available out there... as long as the lamp you find comes within a watt or two of the lamp that you want to fire, it will work. Remember...
