I would get the calcium reactor also. My tank was primarily softies and a few LPS. The tank sucked up alot of calcium. Water changes wouldn't even come close to maintaining the appropriate levels. You may want to add a few SPS or clams down the road.

Both overflows in the 120 have returns (3/4").

I think it depends on how many tangs you have in your tank

As Mike said, this is normal behavior. My colt (Cladiella)went through these changes several times a day when I first introduced it. Now, 1 year in my reef, it only closes down at night. I've had it 16-18" under 175 watt MH and 250 watt MH where it did well. Due to its growth, I have moved it...

You should see a doctor without delay. Purple isn't a good color- purpura or vascular compromise. M. marinum would take several weeks after the injury to show up. It is easily treated fortunatley.

Used IO for years but just bought a bucket of Deep Ocean Premium Reef Formula from a LFS. Never heard of this salt before. The rep happened to be in the store at the time and said it has been around 15+ years. Made by Energy Savers, who makes Coralife, but had been marketed to public...

You can also make two 250watt ballast yourself for under $100. I have seen the light.

My LFS, Ultimate Aquarium.

If you take out the softies, my tank is LPS dominated

I've found their customer service to be not so friendly. That is after they finally get out of bed by 10:00 am pst.

I have had Clown, Niger, Pink-Tail, Picaso, and Undulated triggers. No question, the Undulatus, had a bad attitude several orders of magnitude above the others. Haven't kept a Queen trigger.

Maybe not a huge yellow but I'll post it anyway: [ September 05, 2001: Message edited by: Tcook ]

Why not bag both of those test solutions and order accurate solutions from here: Fisher Scientific pH7.00: catalog #SB107-500 pH10.00: catalog #SB115-500

I have a CSL PowerCooler 1/3hp inline chiller on my 120 gal. Fairly quiet for a chiller but still loader than the overflows, fans, and pumps. If this is going into a small room (12 x 10')it can add some heat and run more often. If you can plumb it into a fish utility room especially when you...

Here's a crappy side view of mine after I harvested the macro algae. I have a 3-4' sand bed, few LR, and detrivore kit in it. Bought a 55 watt Bright kit with 5300K PC from AH Supply. They have DIY plans at the site. Added an extra microjet PH to increase circulation as I had a small...

Here's one of mine:

A variety of Devil's Hand? The polyps (if that's what they're called) are much smaller thatn the ones on my lobo. http://www.ectoreef.homestead.com/files/soft/loboJun01.jpg

Bought this from my LFS as a "Neon green mumps coral". I let it settle down in my tank to get a good pic. What do you think? Alcyonium sp. ......Paralemnalia sp.?
