    Its so HOT!

    i would skip the mp10 for now esp on a 29 gallon running mh lights. more bang for buck with chiller imo. but to each his own. the mp10 would be cool but it isnt like you r running an sps tank yet. akoralia 1 or 2 would suffice 4 flow until later. heat is going to cause more problems with your...

    high nitrates

    How safe is it to stir the sandbed? I am having a similar frustrating everpresent 20ppm nitrates. My sand bed is about 3" deep. I had heard that disturbing the sand bed is problematic. What are your thoughts?

    Its so HOT!

    I believe that he is using the frozen bottles as well as the fan method... But Conski, my young friend, I believe you were aware that this would be an issue when you bought the sunpod... those MH lights throw off a lot fo heat. I strongly encourage you to get a chiller and not worry about it...

    New pictures... with clams (PIC HEAVY BABY)

    Thanks folks. I am happy with it... I am, however, very frustrated because I cannot get my nitrates to go lower than 15. Driving me nuts.

    BioCube 29 Mod Suggestions and help please

    Just depends on your test results. Expect a little cycle if you are adding new rock (but makes ure it is cured). ONce you have no ammonia and some nitrate is showing then you will know you have cycled. If you are using some sand from your existing tank and some live rock from there as well, I...

    Live Rock Rubble Replace

    If you have too much rock you can do that (but I think you actually need more since you got a bigger tank). But you can also buy cured live rubble and put it in there. Add a light and some macro algae, maybe some copepods and other critters and have yerself a littl refugium.

    Live Rock Rubble Replace

    It is never too late. I would do it for sure. Not sure how beneficial the liverock is in the back, but I know that it won't hurt .

    For the return pump you should get a maxijet 1200. Just for the return. You can then use your stock pump to run the chiller line. As for Koralia I would get another one (maybe a no.1). They really help. Wish I could recommend an MP10 but I don't have one yet; but have heard good things...

    New pictures... with clams (PIC HEAVY BABY)

    Thank you guys a bunch. Ace, it is really cool to see them grow. I have a bit of an issue with Nitrates right now so my SPS is not doing all that well. I think I lost my stylophora (it is still around, but definitaly bleaching). But so far that will be my only death at this point. I am...

    New pictures... with clams (PIC HEAVY BABY)

    Purple Acan. This one is also growing new heads and is really getting pretty bright in color. Orange Crush acan with new head growing out of the back of the skeleton. I think it will completely fill in the back here soon. Then i will have to be concerned about predatory behavior as I have...

    bubble coral won't open

    I wouldn't worry about the 80-82 all that much. But the alk and ca are some crazy high readings. But if everything else is stable (including your pH) then I have no idea. LPS can be weird like that.

    bubble coral won't open

    Probably just getting used to the new digs. however, you alk and ca are a bit on the high side. Although I don't think it would cause problems in the long run, it may be having a harder time getting acclimated because of the increased levels. Pictures would help though. MY frogspawn will be...

    opinions on Petco live-rock?

    The Petco here has LR, but it is not real rock. it is the manmade stuff that is tinted to appear as though it is covered in coralline. I wouldn't get it if that is the stuff they have at your location.

    Ace25's 75G Build Thread

    hahaa. That is what my clowns did with my duncans. The duncans really did not like it at all... I moved the duncans about four inches away and they stopped. It was pretty interesting.

    2 questions (plate coral/algae)

    They should be fine with what is in the water but do benefit from some supplemental feedings. Hopefully it will be on the mend soon. Any chance that you could put some pictures up of what is going on and some water parameters? That would go a long way in helping you with the issue.
