    WTB: Snowflake or Picasso Clownfish Pair

    I found a few posts by rrcg50 but they were pretty dated (2 or 3 years ago). I went to http://justclowninaround.com and he didn't have very much. I'd rather buy local from someone who has had them for a while since I already went through a bout of Brooklynella from a new clown that died and...

    Need Lighting for an 8 gallon tank

    Lighting is the most important thing when it comes to a reef tank. The majority of corals are photosynthetic therefore they need light not just to grow but to survive. If you want an anemone you are definitely going to need better lighting. You also need to experiment with how much lighting...

    Need some lighting advice

    Why not build your own? I built mine using parts from rapidled.com. I don't have a lot of wiring experience but I was able to wire 12 3w LED's without much of a problem. The retail units seems ridiculously expensive.

    How does wave maker work with overflow?

    As far as how it works it depends on the type of wavemaker you are going to purchase. I have a RedSea Wavemaster Pro. It works by plugging up to 4 powerheads into the unit and then choosing a pre-programmed wave motion. You can choose from a gentle, rolling, turbulent or alternating. I'm...

    How does wave maker work with overflow?

    A wavemaker doesn't necessarily "splash" the water around. I think the purpose is more to provide a somewhat random current throughout the tank to better replicate the natural current of the ocean. Some corals such as SPS like an alternating/random current rather than just a steady blast...

    Do you keep your Alk/Ca dosing ratio equal?

    So I guess I'm not the only one with the ghetto doser! Just kidding, it's not a bad product but I have had problems. I've never used a "high-end" doser so I can't really compare it but for the price it does a pretty good job. When I recalibrate mine I just shoot for the time it takes to dose...

    Just tested my tank

    I think the alk is a tad high. I used to keep mine between 10-11 until I went on vacation and it spiked to 12.5 and I had ill effects. If you keep it between 8-9 or 9-10 then you have more room for error. I agree with turbonut that the API test kit for phosphate doesn't give a good enough...

    Do you keep your Alk/Ca dosing ratio equal?

    I've run into the same problem before. I don't believe you ever answered the question of whether you are using an auto doser. If so, it's true what Spanky said, that they are not always accurate. Maybe it's because I bought a ghetto auto doser but I've found the amount dispensed can vary from...
