  1. Dragon Wrasse?

    I had one and he was my favorite fish. I also had to get rid of him because all of the problems he caused. My main problem is he would take the food from my anemone. He would also dig under large rocks and eventually they would move and it would make a mess. I would have to replace rocks all...
  2. Protein Skimmer for my 80 gal

    My skimmer sucks, but everything is still living. To be honest you don't even have to have a skimmer. I considered getting a Bullet 1, but I just don't want to spend $350 bucks on it. So I question is it worth the extra money? Do you need it to skim better?
  3. Can I be skimmerless?

    I rank my tank for about 8 months without a skimmer. I have a 75 with 90lbs of live rock. And a 30gal sump.
  4. How important is it to have a skimmer in a new tank

    I have just now got my skimmer working after my tank has been up for 8 months. Don't worry about the skimmer. BTW I did the stupid damsel thing too. One of these days I might get motivated to catch them.
  5. Good Question on skimmer / refugiums???

    I have had my 75 up for about 9 months with no skimmer. Though I am going to add it tomorrow. I am finally getting the proper pump for my skimmer. Anyways to be honest a skimmer is not really needed. I think it would help my tank some though. My sump is a mess.
  6. What did you get this Weekend?

    I got a hang over.
  7. How do I get coraline algae off of the front glass?

    A razorblade will do it 10 times faster than a credit card. I use a solid tungsten carbide blade used to cut staple fiber for carpets.
  8. Lighting upgrade

    Why are you dumping your PC's. Why just not add MH to your PC? Anyways I run the 10K German bulbs. ++Russ
  9. Where's my cucumber's?

    I did not see mine for nearly 3 months then one day I caught sight of one. I kinda know what to look for now. I see one every week or so.

  11. Where to get replacement impeller for iwaki pump

    Where do I get a replacement impeller for an iwaki pump?
  12. Best Host Anemone For a Percula Clown?

    Most will do to be honest. I bought an anemone that was not the "best host". About a week being in the tank I saw my true perc's chillin in the anemone.
  13. Vote: Peppermint Shrimp or Berghia nudibranchs?

    My tank was covered in aiptisia. I mean covered. I bought a Copperbanded Butterfly and in three weeks I have like none left. I mean he took it out quick. Makes me wish I got a smaller one. Plus it is a cool looking fish.
  14. Thoughts on the AquaC EV-200

    I know the skimmer is oversized for the tank. Will this be a problem is my question. I would rather have a PM bullet skimmer, but alas you don't see many forsale. And I don't have 600 bucks or so to buy a new skimmer.
  15. Thoughts on the AquaC EV-200

    My iwaki's impeller broke today and my I have an old PM skimmer which is a POS. It is some early counter current model with an iwaki MD-20RXT. So I think it is time just to get a whole new setup. Someone has an EV-200 with an iwaki MD-30RXT pump. I have a 75gal reef tank right now. Will this...
