    Light Combinations

    I would do at least one ATI Blue+ and one ATI Purple+. Both are PAR monsters and have awesome color. That leaves two left. I would probably try another Blue+ and then either another purple+ or a third Blue+. For the mh, something in the 12-14k range will work. Geissmann had a "Coral" bulb in...

    Salt Mixes

    I use Aqua Vitro Salinity. I buy the big buckets. I make 50-60g at one time and mix for 24 hours, no more. Otherwise it will start to precipitate and leave a gray film in your container, per the manufacturer. I can attest to this fact. But I've been using this salt for years, first on the old...

    Kinda like a tank, huh? ;) I'm all for DIY, but since I don't own a cnc machine I hardly see it as overpriced. If you don't have the cash, you can go get a critter keeper and some magnets and save yourself a few bucks. It'll look like hell but it's only temporary.

    Finally picked up a social acclimation box! Got this one from elite-aquatics. Simple, works well and made well. Oh, and picked up a Powder Brown Tang to test out the box. :D

    You think I'd know, but..... sump questions

    Oh i see. Well in that case, what will probably happen is you'll end up with a full siphon which will be pulling A LOT more water into your sump. But your return pump will be the same speed which probably won't keep up with the drain. I'd say if anything, it's just going to be really noisy. I'd...

    Depends how much volume your overflow holds vs your sump.

    Sounds like it's doing well to me. All normal behavior.

    What am I doing wrong?

    "water parameters are good" doesn't tell us much. Post them up. What is your maintenance regimen? Lighting schedule and type of lights? It's hard to tell you what you are doing wrong if you don't tell us what you are doing. ;)

    You think I'd know, but..... sump questions

    1) If you have a fuge in your sump, i would just vacuum out the empty compartments. Get a powerhead and put a filter sock on the output of your hose. 2) You should really have a ball valve on your drain under your stand so you can cut the flow from your tank for maintenance or emergency purposes.

    Thanks! I had moved it to my frag tank which has my old gen 1 radion and it's in the corner where it's getting less light. It looks like hell but i think it has stopped deteriorating. Now to see if it recovers. The person i got it from had it out in the open under his radion pros. But maybe the...
