  1. Ya im trying to setup cheap and make the wife happy before i go crazy..lol.......Im still trying to fiqure out the whole plumping into the sump and what i have to use for filtration exactly... Im a DIY type of guy and its also more fun saying i built that rather than i installed that... I know its only 5lb but im looking for some more on thisI heard that the LR shouldn't be to close to the glass..... how close is to close? also what are some good fish or inverts to start off with??? Thanks again Im glad i found a site like this one....
  2. I must say this is the first Forum i have seen something like this.... hopefully i can get something setup where i can share the love back.... currently looking for some lighting options to have coral... thanks again this site is awesome

  6. I'll have some Live Rock if you got some....... and anything else you think would be good for a starter tank... Its my first Saltwater tank.... Thanks
  7. Still have the Flame Hawk???
  8. That is a good point of the heater melting plastic.... I want to upgrade but gotta convince the wife first and that's not always easy
  9. I just picked up about 5lbs of live rock today.... and no I didn't rinse the sand... sounds stupid now but really wasn't thinking about it at the time
  10. would i have to run an overflow box or should I just drill a little hole a few inches under the waterline to cut the suction
  11. Hey guys Had a question... I got a 30gal tank and its getting a little crowded I was wondering if i could run everything out of a 5gal bucket including my Marineland Penguin filter and heater and soon my protein skimmer??? I guess it would be like a Sump type of thing.... Sorry if it sounds like a real NOOB question but thats cause it is..lol....
  12. Hey guys I got myself a 40gal tank and am in need of canister filter protein skimmer and a sump tank... pretty much all the startup items..lol... Let me know if any of you have these and near Portland Oregon... Thanks
  13. Still have the skimmer????? Im interested in it... just starting out and looking for parts cheap to make the wife happy..
  14. Thanks Drew..... I need to keep reminding myself of that cause I got a 4 yr old that keeps saying..."daddy lets go get the fishy" And im a sucker for my girls they got me in the palm of their hand...lol
  15. Thanks guys.... I came across this forum on google... Im picking up a 50 gal tank tomorrow and start setting that up as well... I got a few question about how to get everything going from protein skimmers to how to maintain the tanks but i wanna do a little reading thru the sight first and im sure i'll answer some of my question... so far Ive just had trouble with my tank getting really cloudy very easily.. Im thinking its cause of the light sand i have mixed in with the live sand, does this happen normally and i just need to give it time to settle? thanks
  16. Hello all Im new to the Saltwater world and hopefully will be able to get all my answers and help from you guys.... I have a 4yr daughter and a 19month old too so It was time for a saltwater tank for them... thanks to all in advance
