    Power head recommendations???

    Now I think I understand it a little better. I have done some more esding and are that the wave maker is very important to corals. I think I might go with something that includes a wavemaker in order to improve coral life. You seem to be very impressed with the maxijet and a wavemaker and you...

    Power head recommendations???

    Thanks for the info, i dod not realize that about the wavemaker. There are a coupld of options i guess i need to consider. The Koralia seems like such a nice pump, and great on the heat issue which kind of concerns me. Like I said, I live in a very warm humid place, and the room which will...

    Power head recommendations???

    I read about the Koralia powerhead and the Maxijet 1200..... dont they both do the same thing?? Which would you prefer for a AP 24, and what size? I am just not sure which is the best route, both are comparable in price, so it comes down to performance. I have two weeks to get together what i...

    Tank ordered, hopefully here by friday

    Well my wife gave in once i told her you couldnt fit "Nemo" in a 12 gal. So i ordered the Aquapod 24 gal w/ 150 w HQI Sunpod. The deal was to good to pass up. Anyway, i have read about mods for this system that some believe are alsmost required to get premium resluts. What do i need to get (...

    New tank choice....i think

    Cant seem to find a price on the Solana with a sunpod. I really dont like the pendant light at all. if I could find something reasonable like that without the pendant I would consider it. I kinda like the rounded edges of the AP24 as well

    New tank choice....i think

    CurrentUSA AquaPod 24 Gallon 150w HQI Aquarium, and i can get it for $299. Its like than the finnex i was going to get. it is a 24 instead of a 30, but i get the Sunpod lighting, which is a bonus. Any thought??? 6 gallon sacrifice for the HQI, just dont know. The 30 gal finnex, has square...

    Are there any clams which are ok for this size tank? There will abviously be coral, two percula clowns, a firefish, and a jaw fish. Would a clam be feasiable with this combo??

    Opinions on Finnex 30 gal glass???

    Thank tall so much for all the info. I will most likely go with the clowns and maybe the jawfish (they are just to cool to me). As far as lighting should a get a tank alone and get the lights I need or go with the t5's? I like the tank because of all it comes with but the coral is the most...

    Opinions on Finnex 30 gal glass???

    A tank i saw on another site add this list along with a pic, and it was in a 24 gal i believe. I like most of what i saw, but i want a few more fish than he had. I would go with a couple percula clowns, maybe a spotted mandarin, black velvet damsel, skunk shrimp, maybe a crab, the usual clean...

    Best 24 gal nano?

    I have all but decided what i want in my nano, and it will require the 24 gal minimum. I was wondering what everyone thinks is the best option? Nanocube, Aquapod, cadlight, red sea max. I also hear that a lot of people like running theirs with the lid off, so that would make me lean towards a...

    Found new local reef store...

    Today i dropped in on a salt water fish store. This guy was great. Him and his wife own the store, and they maintain 100 tanks in my area (Myrtle Beach). He truly loves this stuff, and that is great for me. His selection is AMAZING. He said he quaritines his fish a minimum of two weeks...

    Very new, so please excuse the dumb questions in advance...

    That helps tremendously. That brings me to another question. I am leaning toward the nano 24 because it will hold all that I want so I wouldn't need a sump correct? My brother has a spare 5 gal I could rig up for a sump if that's big enough and worth the effort.
