    Yasha Goby/Pistol Shrimp Pair - your thoughts?

    Not trying to steal this thread but Eddy, if you look at the platinumreefs link at the top is a couple of pics of the Griessingei Goby that we talked about chatting the other day. I see why I couldn't find the one I was looking for now, I was mis-spelling "griessingei". I have to agree with...

    What are the different snails and what do they do?

    Here is a pretty good list of snails and if you click on each one there is a description as to what it eats: http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/scat ... pCatId=526 . I would avoid the turbo snails due to their size and the fact they knock things over all of the time. I think that you should...

    what do you guys and gals think?

    Semo, What they are talking about is putting a drilled Wave tank on top of his main tanks canopy and then plumbing it into the main tank so it kinda acts like a sump for the Wave.

    Things to look for when buying used equipment.

    Since the tank isn't set up you could also fill it up and add bleach to clean it, when you empty it use a large dose of dechlorinator to get rid of the bleach and let it completely dry in the sun.

    Things to look for when buying used equipment.

    If it was used with copper and is a real steal of a deal I may not pass it up but I would use it for other than a reef.

    New to the page. Here's my 4 gallon.

    Ingenious use of copper pipe, I usually start thinking wood when I think about suspending a pendant. The new light appears to be a deinite step up. Keep the updates coming.

    Things to look for when buying used equipment.

    You may be able to determine if it was sed salt or freshwater by the equipment it comes with. A protein skimmer is a sure indicator of salt use as one example. Sadie is right with the pumps, you may want to look into replacing them but I would give them a good cleaning and inspection first...

    what do you guys and gals think?

    Nevermind about the diagram, I see now what you are talking about. I also think it will work out great as long as the heat from the lights doesn't overheat the small tank. I realize it will have water from the main system flowing through it but if it is to slow you could have heat issues.
