    need advice on what to buy...

    Dont forget that lighting is the one purchase that you could end up really regretting, or end up really pleased. Spend a little more than you can afford, and you should be pleased!

    New tank and brown algy bloom

    Adding an algae crew and cleanup crew will definetly help, as well as time. Once the tank stabilzes and finishes its cycle, this algae will go away... the next color algae will probably be green. And welcome to the site!

    Journal for new canopy to house MH retro...

    Almost completed the MH custom reflector, thanks to my dad and his access to a sheet metal bender/creaser. I wanted one that was narrower to allow enough room for the PC reflectors, so the new one is 2 1/2" across compared to the 3 1/2" reflector that came with the kit. Plus, I didnt like the...

    New to reef aquarium and need opinions please.

    FYI...Here is a link to a 20 L from another site (wouldn't recommend the site...they are a bit rude), however this tank is a prime example of what a 20L with some good lighting and good aquascaping could look like ----> http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/index.p ... 2536&st=80

    New to reef aquarium and need opinions please.

    Personally, I would prefer a long. the reason being that i find it easier to aquascape a shorter, longer tank as opposed to a taller tank. My 16 gallon bow, for example, is the same WxL as a 10 (approximately) but it is about 6" taller. that makes it harder to aquascape. Also, like you hit...

    Magnet Cleaner

    That is great to hear. I have seriously considered purchaseing one for both my 16 bow and my dads 46 gal planted. So you would say that they are worth the price? (tad bit pricey)

    HAVE YOU SEEN MY CLOWN

    I would say that finding any traces of a body is doubtful. Cleaners usually unite on a find such as a deead body. Everyone pitches in, snails, crabs, shrimps. But i also wouldnt give up hope on finding him. fish can tend to hide very well. Has there been any major fluctuation in your...

    New zoas...

    these are my first all orange zoas. Actually a couple of them are solid orange, a couple are orange skirts with blue-grey speckeled centers. Hey, for $5, couldnt pass them up. Plus, I dont mind buying these things small, they grow like crazy.

    New to reef aquarium and need opinions please.

    I agree with the other two. Avoid the nanocube...it is much more cost effective to go with a 20 gal long. That will probably be the next size tank that i would set up. as far as equipment needed to start, that would include about a 2" to 3" inch bed of, IMO, the finest aragonite sand...

    Top view...should be good enough ventilation to avoid having to use a fan. If not, Ill just add one small one to either side.
