Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can purchase Chaetomorpha Algae? www.macro-algae.com is out f stock. Any other suggestions?

I am using the skimmer refugium combo. The construction of the product looks very good. since I am a newbie I don't have anything to compare to but here are my comments: -Build quality, top notch -Loudness, very lound. I originaly supposed to put my 20G nano tank in the bedroom but...

Thank you for all the suggestions. Good to hear that the salt mix should do most if not all of the pH adjustment. I really want to stay away from additives that increase pH because as the articles said it will eventually crush the system and do more harm the good. I have a tests kit, and will...

Hello, Just set my nano reef tank. I got my filter, PH, and thermometer running. I put in my salt mix. I was surprised how much salt mix I had to put into my 20G to get the proper salanity. I was adding it with table spoon, then went to 1/2 cups, and then I just starting using full cups...

Thank you guys for all the input. All the info and suggestions are...priceless. I will be running the following in my 20g: 2x maxi-jet 600 - I have to say I got them yesterday and these look like good quality powerheads. I know looks could be deceiving, but I hope I will have good luck...

Sounds good, thank you very much.

Hello, I was wondering if the output of the power heads can be added together to get the required water turn over or does each power head has to have the needed turn over rate. For example if I am aiming at a turnover rate of 600gph do I need to purchase 2 or 3 PH that have 600 rating each...

Thank you very much for the feedback. If I remove the glass top should I replace it with some other cover, or should i just live it open? I will have some fish so I wonder if these will jump out or not. In order to fit a mechanical filter in the refugium I will need to get the Eheim powerline...

No one has any suggestions or comments?

Hello, I am working on setting up a nano reef 20g aquarium. Here is the hardware that I am planning to use: -20g glass aquarium (already purchased) -130W Lunar Aqualight by Coralife (already purchased) -Glass top (alrady purchased) -maxi jet 600 powerheads x2 (already purchased)...

Wow, thank you very much for the info. I can't believe that my local store try to sell me the live sand from their aquarium saying that I really need it, and said that the packaged stuff is no good. They wanted $4.0 per pound of live sand, I know that I only need up to 20lb for my tank but...

Thank you very much for the recommendation. Is this what everyone reffers to as Live Sand or not? Will it become Live Sand with time as the aquariums establishes or will it always be just sand.

Hello, I am starting a nano reef tank and would like some advice on what would you guys recommend sand or gravel? What particle size? I am leaning towards the agronite sand supposable it is good for reef aquariums but the grain sizes are 2 to 3mm. Any recommendations?
