It's looking really fantastic. Thanks for posting pics of your progress. B

I'm just curious how many of you are using heaters, and if you are, why? The reason I ask, is that I've never had a heater on any of my tanks. Nearly all the tanks from the large ones to the small ones go through a 2-5 degree swing during the course of the day with lights switching on and...

I depends on what type of mushrooms. Some like shadier areas, some like more light. 32w isn't a lot, but it is a big increase from what they're used to. Move them to a shadier spot for a week or so and then gradually move them back up to where you'd like them. B

No biggie. The anaerobic bacteria in the liverock is tough stuff. It'll be fine. B

Looking good Mike. B

Nope. UGFs don't work worth a darn for marine tanks. You'd be better off with no filter at all. And just rely on water changes alone. Go out and buy a HOB filter if you don't want to mess with a refugium. For a 29 I'd recommend a skimmer as well, but if the tank is lightly stocked you can...

I'd say it's probably due to the increase in light. Try moving them to a shadier section, or just down as far as you can get them in the tank for a couple days and see if they start to expand/extend again....I'd make sure to add a bit of iodine to the system, to help them in healing if they've...

Everything looks very good. Nice and clean. Great job! B

I seriously doubt that it'll do well under 48w. Mine actually survived nearly 2 weeks during my moving fiasco with no light whatsoever. They are tough as anemones go, but I still think that 48w is a bit low, even in that small a tank....Then again if it were me I'd probably be tempted to give...

I've seen several huge BTAs, both green and rose...Mine is smaller than a tennis ball. It hasn't grown significantly since I got it nearly a year ago. It definitely roams around more than the other BTAs I've got. I think growth rates are greatly affected by how much you feed them. I don't...

If it's just stock lighting then you don't have enough lighting for an anemone, at least not one that your clowns 'might' host in. There are some types of anemone that don't rely on photosynthesis, so it wouldn't matter, but they're not the type that clowns host in, and in that small a tank...

I'd heard that monti plates are one of the less demanding SPS, at least light wise. I think they might work out well for you under your lights. B

It looks like it should be easy to find the pieces to put one together on this site....Cool deal. B

Sounds like amphipods to me....But you've probably already ruled that out. B 1000 posts....I need to find another hobby. :lol:

Lets see.....Where to start. The lights you mentioned don't include a balast, power cord, etc...It's just the lamp. I don't know what the space requirements are for a 2.5g, but you can easily do better for the same amount of money. Read some threads...Especially the ones in the pico forum...

The first time I click on it it doesn't work...I then have to highlight the URL and hit enter again...Then IE loads the file and plays it. B

The nurce units are no longer being made....Here's the site of the company that was making them...It shows how they work....Lots of reefers have made similar DIY systems. You just have to have a air tight container that you can get two pieces of tubing into and retain the integrity of it at the...

That is one sweet pic....Very clearly shows the light dispersion. It sounds like a couple hours work and you'll be able to put sand/lr/water in it. Are you gonna do it this weekend? B

Perhaps baby stomatella snails? B

Interesting...I've just never seen one hung that direction before. What height do you have to hang it at? B
