Oceanus Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share Posted April 5, 2010 I hear Nova Extreme is really good! Yea, I was thinkin the 72" pro. Or 2 tek 36" fixtures 6-8 bulb. what about fishneedit MH, pretty cheap and with new bulbs (stock bulbs not so good imo) work great, n good customer service Thanks. I checked them out, but as I have learned eventually, I'll want somethin' better. Besides, I don't have the 280-300 bucks every six months for new bulbs. this may help.http://reefbuilders.com/2010/04/01/combina...racts-kill-ich/ Thank you. I was thinking something natural, but ich is still gone. Link to comment

Oceanus Posted April 10, 2010 Author Share Posted April 10, 2010 I am sick. sore throat, allergies, headache, all that junk. On a side not, I will NOT add anything (no, not even a crab) to the tank for 6 months. I really want it to get stable and established. Besides, the algae has gone NUTS! It's diatoms, dinoflagellates (aaargh), and green dust algae. Link to comment
