    Thanks for all the input. How does this list sound?? SPS Montipora-encrusting orange Montipora-encrusted purple Stylopora LPS Tube coral, orange Dwarf colored feather duster Hawian feather duster I have talked to the folks at Dr Foster & Smith at liveaquaria.com I'm looking for peaceful...
  2. ROCK DUST AHH!!

    I use a spare powerhead and each time I blow off the rocks, more settles on the bottom which I then remove during a water change.
  3. Fuge Size

    Can you add a fuge if your tank isn't drilled?? I have a 72 g bow front with two CPR bak pak skimmers??

  5. Coral--if you started over, what would you select

    Please look at my tank details below in my sig and please suggest the corals you'd put in my tank. I would hope to have mostly non agressive corals. I also intend to have a couple clams high in the tank on rock so perhaps you could suggest the best clam as well. Thanks of taking the time to...

  8. Clams with two part calcium/alk liquid?

    I'm curious why a few folks are concerned with the expense of the two part additives. I just bought two gallons (one gal. of each part--Kent) for $40 and that includes shipping. That should sure last awhile and probably is the least expensive thing I have bought for my tank in awhile.
  9. 48" Aqualight Pro

    What amount of time do you have the moon lights on. When I checked my tank this morning my two fish were still active instead of normally inactive behind rocks.
  10. 48" Aqualight Pro

    I just received the 48" Aqualight Pro, the leg stands are 3.5". I am going to use the legs, but I am building a wooden frame (4 X 4's on the sides), so the light will end up about 8" from the water surface. The tank is a 72 G bow front (water is 20" deep). So....please give me feedback...
  11. 48" Aqualight Pro

    Also, did anyone hang this light or just use the stands. If it was hung, could you please describe your approach? Thanks for your help
  12. 48" Aqualight Pro

    Does anyone know the height of the stands that support the light? By the way, this is my first post--so a big hello from Lansing, Michigan.
