This is what i was looking at: http://www.premiumaquatics.com/Merchant ... lifepcbulb i don't know if its going to be enough power but that depends on how much you want to mod. i did see an article about putting LED's into the hood be removing all the old lighting. i'll look for it and link...

I have this same tank and am currently wanting/trying to convert it to saltwater. my only issue is (i'm not really a DYI-er mostly becuase i don't have the stuff) the lighting issue. i've seen Coralife 50/50 bulbs that are screw-in style and are like 6.75 inches long but only online so i'm...

That is a beautiful tank. Do you use an ATO or top off by hand?

from what i know there is really no set cycling time. it just depends on the tank. it'll prolly go faster with the sand from the other system. you'll just have to check your paramiters (sp?) offen.

aww that's cute though... little clown family... good luck with them ever growing big.

Any updates now?

I know everyone sprays the back of their tanks black usually. is it just plain ole' spray paint? Tim~ Since you apparently live in the MidWest like I do, do you have issues keeping the temperature stable due to outside conditions (winter and such)? Thanks!

can't wait to see everything you do. please keep updating

is the AquaClear 20 going to have enough water movement? it moves 100 GPH. i also don't know if it filters from the bottom and the surface skimmer attachement or only the top. also can i use a heater that attatches to the tank or should i use one that is completely submersible? i'm...

okay that would definately be really cool. good luck getting it going.

aren't you worried about critters going over the edge? or is a reef only tank?

Has anybody seen or own this tank? http://www.marinedepot.com/ps_ViewItem~SearchStr~~action~view~idProduct~CU80012~idCategory~FIAQCK~category~Current_USA_Solana_34_Gallon_Aquarium_w__HQI_150W_Pendant___Modern_Black_Stand_Saltwater_Aquarium_Supplies_Aquariums_Complete_Kits~vendor~~tab~2.html...

Is it a custom tank? or is it a store bought all glass or something of the like?

From what I have read and stuff if he can't move around freely it seems like it might be kind of small specialy going from a larger tank to such a smaller one. It might put alot of stress on him/her. I'm no expert still working on my SW, but its a good rule of thumb with FW tanks so but it...

Those definitions are definately helpful. Thanks for the breakdown on lighting always been something i scratch my head about when reading.

your tank is beatiful... how long do you think it took you to get from start to now?

Im really glad you posted this article. it was actually really helpful for me becuase i worry about choosing the wrong things and getting in too deep -- thansk again.

I work... ALOT specially in the fall. i work at an online costume company and it is 7 days a week as many hours as you can put in for 3 months. computers and cars are waaay out of my league. i like to dye my hair-- i had blue/pink hair for almost a year -- its inexpensive easy and fun...
