Well, After posting my pictures and taking a sample rock to my LFS, I purchased joe's juice. They nuked the sample rock I brought in and off I went home with zero aiptasia on the small rock. Once I got home I turned off all powerheads and return line. I removed my glass tops and the...

Erik, These are the best I could do. Under these pics they look brown, but under my 20K bulbs, they look very pretty green. Tell me what you think? Mike G

Erik, I need you to see a picture of mine. I've had them for almost 6 months and they have all stayed on just this one rock. They are florescent green, not brown at all. They have small tentacles not long ones like the pictures show. They also have a much smaller base, not long like...

I know there have been numerous postings on fighting this pest. I've never had this guy in my reef, well up until I finally admitted to myself that what is on my rocks has to be aiptasia. I never thought aiptasia could be light green almost like a button polyp. Also, they don't have long...

Yeah, You are right, either I get zero evaporation and continue paying the chiller bill or I find a medium some fans but not complete topless. MG

Wow, That's a ton of evaporation in comparison to my 72 bowfront. I get zero evaporation per day and I have only a 3 gallon reservoir that gets filled once every 7 days or so. Ever since I removed part of my glass lid on my sump, I'm seeing a lot of evaporation since I rigged two small...

I used the 18 watt coral mini in my pico and the 150 watt in my 6 gallon. My brother now has my 150 watt as he's going to be working on the ultimate 20 gallon reef... I'm using the 18 watt coralife on my 6 gallon as I decided to stay in the nano world and not give up my tank but rather...

Jesse, Do you get a lot of evaporation with no glass tops on that sump? MG

Hi Christy, I missed the part that my 6 gallon navigated you towards this tank; they are much clearer than glass tanks. To clean the outside and inside of my truvu I take a soft paper cloth, the ones that are made by hefty, they don't tear in the water nearly as much as the cheaper ones...

That is a nice looking catalina goby. I heard that they die in captivity if the water cannot be kept at it's native cool waters. Good luck Ed.... MG

Karen, What is the brand of sand your purchased? Chances are that you purchased live sand which is extremely important to your nitrification process, do not remove it from your tank if you have had it in there for more than one week. Taking it out could cause an ammonia swing to kick in...

Love that last picture, talk about a garden in the ocean, this is it.... MG

Okay, I now have to see your engine to this beautiful nano.... Lets see it.... MG

Wow, What a beautiful clean nano... I'm impressed on how clean everything is... MG

Sweet start, I'm impressed with your DIY skills.... Keep us posted.... MG

Rise from your grave... The 72 gallon bowfront is ressurected... I took all these fotos to please my loyal fans and critics... Enjoy... Special thanks goes out to my brother who flew in from Orange County to help me setup this sleeping beast... Thanks bro.... MG

Those are nice for moving large volumes of water as current in your main display tank. They however, do no good for me to pull water up as a return... Thanks, MG

So far I've been really happy with my tank on the second go around. I have four moonlights instead of the three, I get better coverage of the tank at night, it looks spectacular. Having the use of two Reefkeepers is incredible, I get to use 6 different powerheads on six different wave...

Can you elaborate more on this Hi-tech powerhead? A link would be nice? MG

Erik, A bulk head on the side of my sump would work. However, it's not an option since I would have to take my sump in to a glass shop and have them drill the hole and then I would have to place it back into my cabinet. I would have to drain the tank and disconnect all the hosing to get...
