pablom617 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Very cool start! I had a rw-4 in my tank and it was plenty of flow even jammed with coral. I look forward to your updates. Link to comment
reeferbrownies Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 i also have the rw-4 and I would use it because of the controllability Link to comment

hangin j Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Quick question for everyone. My tank is approaching the end of the cycle. I cycled the tank with the lights off. Therefore I have no algae growth as of yet. My question is could I go ahead and add a couple clowns, then add the CUC later? Or just wait it out and add the CUC when algae shows up and then follow up with fish a couple weeks after that?? If I do wait I assume I will need to either keep dosing with ammonia or ghost feed the "bacteria"... Link to comment

iadubber Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'm doing the same. Cycled with no lights off. Just finished up this past weekend. I plan to add two clowns Friday and a CUC after. Link to comment
hangin j Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 Ok all you Clown Keepers. Please tell me that the twitching between these two clowns is a good thing... Link to comment
debbeach13 Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 They seem fine to me. I only worry if they rub against sand or rocks. Nice looking pair. Link to comment
