    My knee-deep dive into plants - 55g planted

    Go dry ferts, before i had a CO2 tank dump into my tank I couldn't see the fish in it. Dosing was not hard, I did mine into a wet/dry filter I would recommend not going straight into the tank mix them outside and dissolve them in some tank water then pour that water into the tank. I had a Co2...

    The tank is L 36.5 x W 18.5 x H 21 The budget for the lighting is around 200 if possible, if the lighting will be more I will just have to justifiy it to the wife.

    First Reef tank, need some advice

    Thanks for the Answer. I am looking at the sump, and it looks like there is no where the skimmer could go except in the return water compartment. Will this cause an issue? Any suggestions on what type of lighting i should run. I have used AH supply in the past but I don't know what the wattage...

    Pete I cannot wait to see the complete project. I have been following you for along time, and wish you and yours the best (with the tank and fam)

    Can someone tell me how this works?

    Buy it, sumps give you a huge filter under the tank and can give you extra water volume for you tank.

    Maybe moving in the summer, just a few ?'s

    Sorry, but I will not be dropping them off.:y220d: I will have two huge sponge filters running in the tanks. I think that will keep the transport tubs running and help with the tanks when I set them back up. I also have both of the tanks running with sumps with tons of bio-media. I will also...

    Maybe moving in the summer, just a few ?'s

    So I may be moving from IL to CO, next summer. I was wondering what I would have to do to move my fish. I would just turn them in, but I have a a full cichlid tank(all male peacocks) and a tank of fronts that are growing now. I was wondering how I would go about moving them. Thanks for the info.

    Wow, my tank is leaking.

    how long has the tank been sitting?

    Wow, my tank is leaking.

    New silicone will not stick to old silicone. Your best bet is to strip and repair the entire tank, see me 75 gallon build thread in my sig. And use the search option for the how to. It is very easy but it takes time.
