Interested in bulbs and reflectors

Ok so I'm using a 10 gallon sump and wondering how many baffles I should use. Should I use one? That would have my skimmer be in same chamber as drain and pump in the other chamber... Would that be a problem? Or should I use 2 dividers and have pump in one chamber, skimmer in one, and drains in one? Thanks

Pending sale on all fish but the 5 domino damsels.. They are big for being damsels.. Looking for $25 for all five.. Great for cycling a tank or whatever

is the 90 24" high or 24" wide?

I'm trying to find someone who has complete setup to sell so I don't have to piece it together.. Looks like I might have to.. I'm only running 2-24" t5.. Only require workhorse 3.. Anyone wit complete lighting setup? ( reflectors, end caps, already wired, ballast) thanks

Bump still looking for t5 setup

some good deals..

NEW PICS OF OVERFLOW.

Thanks to wanareef for building overflow and Matt new2saltwater for letting me use his glass hole saw.

When the hole saw went through, it chipped the glass alil bit.. would this be a problem besides water maybe leaking from bulkhead? I plan on putting alil bit of silicone around the bulkhead nut just incase.

and if someone had a glass scratcher and could help me cut it... thanks

anyone have some glass pieces laying around that are thin that I could buy off you cheap or have?

I need to small pieces for a 10 gallon sump.

thanks

thank you pnkrcklives

is

finished painting background, stand, and tank.

just need to pick up overflow from wanareef.

question: will the 250watt halide be enough light for softies i have now? I am going to suppliment with 2- 24'' t5's but haven't found the right setup for now.

but would the single 250watt be ok?

thanks

I just added a lined puffer to my reef tank... I don't have shrimp or else those would be eaten.. But I do have snail and crabs.. But the puffer probably isn't big enough to eat them.. Idk though... I'll let us know how it works out.. He's pretty stressed right now

bump i need 24" bulbs, reflectors, end caps, wiring, and ballast. only really need a workhorse 3... anyone have one? or can post a site that has everything i need in a package for cheap? thanks

I have 5 huge domino damsels like 3.5" long and 2.5" high...

and I also have 2 big eye soldier fish that are about 4.5" each..

let me know what you have for trade or pm if you would like to buy

thanks

also going to add reflector to this...

anyone with ballast, wiring, end caps, reflector, and even a 24"- 30" actinic bulb?

I had pc's on my 125... didnt like them all that much... wanna try the t5

I cant have anything taller than the 12" high... 18" high is too tall for the stand.. I already tried.. cant get it in and if i cut some stuff to get it in... it would be hard to clean and get into.. 10 gallon is really my only choice besides custom acrylic..

Couple questions:

Would one 250watt halide be ok lighting by itself? I dont think i can fit both 250's in the canopy along with everything else.

Is a 10 gallon sump big enough to handle flow when pump turns off?

Im going to be adding one 30" t5 in the hood as well.. probably a purple actinic.. is one 30" t5 enough to supplliment the halide?

The halide is 15k

well... moving my 75 reef from the living room into a 54 corner in the bedroom.. thought i would start a build thread..

What I have now:

54 undrilled corner tank and stand

2- 250 watt single ended halide fixtures...

some LED's for moonlight.

Built a canopy.

What I need:

10 gallon sump

drill tank and add overflow

plumbing

I will be using pump, heater, skimmer, and powerhead from the 75 gallon.

pump is a quiet one 2200. skimmer is a sca-302.

Got my 54 corner build set in motion.. Just finished a canopy for it. Got 2-250 halides to mount in the hood. Got some led moonlights. Need some or 1 t5 with end caps, wiring, and ballast to add alil color to the tank and for night time. Let me know if you have one. Thanks

well tank is all up and running now... got my skimmer fixed...
