Hey Trigg. thanks for the feedback. This does reassure me that he may make it.Again I can't seem to get any garlic in him because he won't eat prepped foods. How long was it for yours to start eating prepped foods? Mine does pick at rocks and substrate alot which is good. Is yours very shy...

I added a chevy 1 week ago to my 9 mos.old 110GA reef. I saw him eat at LFS and added him to my tank. Unfortunantly I do not have a quarentine setup (I know big mistake) and fish seemed to aclimate nicely. Water params. AOK and existing fish (coralbeauty, 3 ea. green cromis, small clown and a...

i just finished setting up a 5 X18 X24 tall Oceanic RR 110GA using sand from them. I used only 160pds. which gave me about a 4-5 in depth. Make sure you place a plastic bag on top of dry sandand then put a big bowl down on the bag covering sand in tank and drop water into bowl which will...

sorry for my ignorance.. I am in process of moving corals from my nano to my new 110 reef. I have a white sinalaria that I got about a year ago which was attached to a small branch which i slid between 2 rocks. It now has attached partially to these rocks and I would like to move into my new...

Got a new 110RR setup which has dual 1 in. drain bulks and 3/4 returns. How much flow can a 1 in. bulk allow? I heard max. at 300gph to700 gphs but with noise. I know lots of reefers out their have Oceanics dual RR stock bulkheads size setups, how much flow can i expect to get optimumly? I am...

If you are talking about thier newest exclusive Signature Sreies line, i can tell you I got a quote of the Sig line which looks assume from website...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I actually live in Nor California and it does reach 100+ degrees this time of year. The rock would be in a 75 GA with a skimmer/sump box. Again I can run a fan accross top. and limit 80watts of light inrearly morning for 4 hrs or so. The reason i would like to...

I would like to cure new uncured rock in my garage in another tank while waiting for the new one to make here. My question is how detremental will heat be a concern while tank is curing rock in garage that obviously is not well ventilated and summer heat can reach in the 100"s here in NorCal? I...
