I don't know about the chempure. I loved my 14g biocube when I had it, great way to start. You'll have fun. Make sure to keep the front flap open and a powerhead rippling the surface for gas exchange. I did not have luck with a pair of clowns in there. Aggression. It's more fun to do a clown and...

+1 D2mini. Always.

Pitch it. Or list it on craigslist as a reptile tank.

Hmmm, mine all have rigid white tube they retract into. They are a fluffy faint pink. Can you get a pic?

Loooong time. I had a skittish watchman that I swear I saw 3 times in 8 months. It was beyond annoying! Then I bought the chalk bass and I don't know why, if it was a dither fish thing or what, but, the watchman moved his cave to the front and he's out now all the time. Won't even budge out of...

Keep us posted, a 55 gallon tank is heavy for sure! At least it was just a long weekend and you weren't gone a whole week, can you imagine???

How'd it turn out?

Are you mocking me?? :o I'd watch your step if so. I know, I am sooo cheesy with emoticons. Like a 50 year old that just got a phone and learned how to text.

Fun stuff to come home to after a long weekend :) If you think it's going to go long you can toss some liverock in the bucket too, some good bacteria to help break down the fish poo so ammonia doesn't rise...

For over a year I had about 50 of these on one rock in my tank. Little filter feeders. They'd retract into their tube when disturbed. They gradually disappeared. Very tiny.

Put a heater in the bucket they should be fine for a few hours. You don't want any temperature swings. I'm sorry about your leak. That sucks

Ha! I love it Kurt, it is more nerve-racking than marriage, this is serious, this is saltwater. That should be my new tagline. I'll steal the concept from you. Sounds like you've got a good plan in place.

Gotta love the settling in dance. Glad he's eating and out and about.

Exciting stuff Kurt!

How's he doing Fishy?

Sounds like a good plan. I'm sorry to hear about your fish :( Losing fish is heartbreaking.

Beautiful fish. Your tank makes me drool

Hi Bob! (and you grumpy old troll) Thanks for your kind words :) I think I got the kessil light because I wanted to spend some money on the tank. It's been up and established for so long now that I felt like throwing some cash at it :) I love my marineland reef capable lights. I never wanted...

You can have a six line in a FOWLR. Reef tank just means it has corals. Six Lines don't need corals. He'd be very happy in your tank. :)

Having a sump lets you have a place to put equipment so that it isn't in your main tank. Again, nice to have, but, not necessary. You will just use a different style of skimmer on your tank if you don't want to have a sump.
