Very clean setup! Well thought out! Impressive.

If you move your return pump intake away from those waterfall bubbles, that will help with the micro bubbles in the display.

I'm sorry Franklin, I didn't realize you were so sensitive. Don't hate me.

Can you tell us more about the led's from OIAB? I'll have some "extra" money coming in next month and I'm ready to switch from mh to led, I've been looking at Maxspect 160 and a no-name fixture that Garrett @ The Premium Aquarium has. Any info would be appreciated.

Yeah, for sure! You and Drew should come by and see my 150g, it's been running almost 2 months. It might give you guys some ideas for your new tank.What to do or what not to do.

Wow Franklin, you media whore! I never would have guessed. HAHAHA

This may be a totally stupid idea, but I think it would be really cool if everyone attending would wear a name tag with their screen name and real name, so that we can identify each other. What do you think? Please don't say I'm no longer invited.

O.K. John, you're my new hero! Reefin' Rockstar!

Hey Nate, what type of ballast is that and how old are the bulbs? I'm looking for something similar.

A big THANKYOU! to Aaron at THE NAUTILUS for hooking me up with a used magdrive 24 for $80. It's a bit too much but I couldn't pass up the awsome deal. The pump looks brand new!

Thats a good idea, but I dont have enough posts on RC to get access to the classified threads.

Thanks Miles. The new tank is still cycling so its not that big of a deal, I have 2 powerheads and a heater in there. I'll go by aqua serene tomorrow and see what they have.

Does anyone in the Eugene/Springfield area have a 1200+ gpm return pump (in-sump) that they want to sell? My Quiet One 5000 died and I need a new pump asap.

Robert

I want in! I think this may be the motivation I was looking for to become a paid member.

Not sure how he would get a parasite, I haven't added anything new in quite some time but at this point I will not rule anything out. I'm going to hit my lfs tomorrow after work and will look for the marinmax and pick up some fresh nori and soak it in garlic. Thanks.

Thanks Algae. Believe me, I'm beyond worried. His new home, 150 gal, is almost ready (cycling) and if he doesn't get to see it, I'm gonna cry.

My wife loves garlic, I can't stand the smell, needless to say, she's loving this advice. Thanks?

Thanks guys, I won't be heading north any time soon but I will pm Reefit for a recipe. I've heard alot about the garlic thing, but don't know any details. Is it fresh garlic cloves? How much do you use?

I have a 4" Desjardini Sailfin Tang thats been with me for almost 2 years now. He has recently lost his appetite and is looking real thin. He used to eat with such voracity but now shows little interest. He'll eat a couple pieces of mysis, a little pellet food but no longer shows any interest in the nori that I offer (does that stuff get stale?) Any Tang people out there have any advice?

Great looking stand ladies. I finally brought my 150g home today. It's been at my moms house ( I dont have a garage ) during construction since December. I'm sure she and her wife are glad to get their garage back. Once I get it up and running and everything transferred over from my 90g, Ill post some pics. Your 150g build thread was definitely an inspiration.

I'll have a 90g glass tank and stand for sale in a couple of weeks. I'm still putting the final touches on my 150g upgrade. Not real sure what to ask for it, the tank is not drilled, has rounded front corners ( like a tru-vue acrylic tank) and the stand is black. Sorry, no canopy.I purchased them together from Aqua Serene in 06'. Let me know if you're interested.

Robert

Will the BB pump give you more output or more air or both?

Count me in again Douglas! I would love to help out too! Just let me know what I can do.

I like it, but I'm just not convinced. Everything is just so green. I like the idea of a nano planted tank to start out. What type of lighting and filtration would Miles 12x12x12 cube require and how many fish can you keep in something that small?

Hey Shane, I will be upgrading from a 90g to a 150g very soon and was going to use the mp40 from my 90g on the 150. I noticed you are using a mp40 on your tank and was wondering if it is enough flow and if you have plans to add a second mp40 in the future?
