Rehype Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I just went into my room, looked at the tank and couldnt find two of my chromis's. I looked all over and found one, dead, in my overflow box... Now i think i want a nice show peice fish... any suggestions? Sorry for the loss man. Given all of the swimming room you have id recommend a vibrant species of flasher wrasse or maybe an anthias(just one though) Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 oooo.. very sexy. I forgot his user name but he had a tank of the month... it was a shallow 47gallon or something and he had some nice anthias. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Im liking the dispar too. So, with the GFO are you supposed to use it in a reactor? Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 I looked up some phosphate reactors and im liking the two little fishies 150. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 But before i get a reactor i think i'll get some of that phosban and try just with a filter bag in my sump's filter area. Link to comment
_Mitch_ Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 So, with the GFO are you supposed to use it in a reactor? Not necessarily. You can keep it in a media bag in a HOB or Canister, as long as there is water flowing through it and the particles are not grinding too hard against each other it will work. A reactor is the most efficient, but isn't necessary. Link to comment

And yep you can just passively float it in the sump. It works just as well. Link to comment

Shallow Posted December 11, 2011 Author Share Posted December 11, 2011 After x mass or maybe before. i Think i want to start a ricordia garden... theyre so pretty. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 So our family is switching from instant ocean salt to Reef Crystals, i know its still instant ocean. we couldnt pass up the deal we got on a 5gal bucket. Is this a change for the better? Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 17, 2011 Author Share Posted December 17, 2011 After x mass... i think i will get aquastyles 36 dimmable kit. Should this be enough light? I like my t5's but i love leds and want that shimmer. I'm just full of questions. aint I? Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 I just cant make up my mind. Becuase i got the nice t5 bulbs not too long ago, i think i should get an led strip to go between the two fixtures... i know theres alot of them out there, but im not sure which ones are good or preffered. I want it too double as a moon light too. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 18, 2011 Author Share Posted December 18, 2011 New FTS in the first post. Link to comment

Rehype Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 and this is Kenny from my parents tank. Love the pic of kenny....great composition. After x mass or maybe before. i Think i want to start a ricordia garden... theyre so pretty. Sounds like a good idea i just upgraded mine and its looking quite colorful. So our family is switching from instant ocean salt to Reef Crystals, i know its still instant ocean. we couldnt pass up the deal we got on a 5gal bucket. Is this a change for the better? You probably wont notice a difference. I just cant make up my mind. Becuase i got the nice t5 bulbs not too long ago, i think i should get an led strip to go between the two fixtures... i know theres alot of them out there, but im not sure which ones are good or preffered. I want it too double as a moon light too. You should check out reefbrite i used it on my last fixture and it was a great supplement to my halide/t5 combo. New FTS in the first post. Looks great love all the open space. Reef Crystals just came in. Now go do a water change Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 Already did my water change haha... I like doing water changes, its like my one on one time with my tank. Im usually pretty busy with wrestling. I hate cutting weight. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 21, 2011 Author Share Posted December 21, 2011 I know i keep changing my mind about certain things i should get for my tank, but im pretty sure i will be picking one of these up after x mas. (Kessil a150W) The coverage should be perfect for my (24"x24"x12") Link to comment
iball1804 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Dude fresh tank. I love your simplistic scape. Link to comment
Shallow Posted December 24, 2011 Author Share Posted December 24, 2011 So... After x mas i plan on getting a 15k kessil a150w, Will this be enough to cover my tank? (24x24x12) and i want to make sure this will be enough for pretty much any coral i throw in there. More input the better. Link to comment
pismo_reefer Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Nice pictures! Back up just a tad, to allow for focus. Or, switch to Macro. Link to comment
