Hey all. I received my wet/dry filter with pre/filter yesterday and got it all hooked up. (It was definitely a pain to try and siphon the water through that tube.) I know that this will greatly help the filteration in my tank but I am a little confused about the bio-balls. I will first tell...

How about this:

Wazzel: Im sorry to keep bugging you but my pics are too big and I dont know how to make them smaller. Any sugestions? Right now the pic size is 760 kb.

I have a reef tank. I have pics on my digital camera but I have no idea on how to post them to the website. Can you or anyone tell me how I do that?

Hey all. I just upgraded my tank from a 29g to a 55g. One of the pieces of equipment I was told I needed was a wet/dry filter or sump (which I am guessing they are one in the same or at least I am hoping that they are). Because of the info I received I purchased a Pro Clear Aquatics Premier...

Wazzel, I havent seen the tank yet and I am betting that it is longer than it is tall. But, from what the seeler has told me, he said it was taller than it is wide so I will have to see. Gary, Living in No. Va, I do venture over to Wally's ona regular basis since it is...

SnowManSnow, Currently, I know that he is currently using it for Freshwater Oscars. The type of pump he is using is unknown to me. I still have to check it out for myself to find out further about the lighting, pump, etc. In my 29g I have a JBJ lighting system with both...

Whats up all?! Recently I have been hit with a proposal to buy a 55 gallon tank w/ stand, light, pump, & heater from a friend/co-worker of mine for a cool $200. Now, my question is, since I have a 29 g already set and trying to get the live rock settled(meaning to acquire the corraline algae)...

Wazzel & anyone who can provide some input, Here are the specs on the light I have. JBJ Aqualighting *Coral Life 65 WATT 10,000k *Blue Actinic 65 WATT Here are the rest of the tank specs: 29 gal 30-35 lbs of LR 25 lbs of LS 2 powerheads: a 550 which does 145/gph and a 1140 which...

Wazzel, sure when I get home I will provide more information.

Thank you. I will be checking out to find a nice affordable price on one of them. I have a second question in regards to lighting. I recently purchased a JBJ light fixture for my tank that has the Actinic and the other light but I dont know how long I should run it or if there is a cycle that...

Hello all this is my 2nd post. I am looking to get a protein skimmer however I do not know what size or kind to get. I was looking at the Remora C but it appears to be too big for my 29g tank. Are there any suggestions of what kind to get for my 29g tank. I would like something that works...

Gretzky: Thank You. I will hold off on getting the corals and anemones. I was thinking it was too soon anyway since I havent reached the coraline algae stage. I have no idea of the alkaline, calcium, & ph link. I feed the fish 3 times a day (it ranges from frozen mysis shrimp to formula 2...

I would recommend a product called "Kick-Ich". I have a 29 gal with a maroon clown, a cinnamon clown, a royal gramma, & a cleaner shrimp (recently acquired). Once I added the royal gramma to the tank, i noticed a couple of days later that he was covered in white spots. It was recommended to...

Thank you for your insight. I will definitely stay away from the UV sterilizer. Also, I think my fish are okay...for now. They are not scratching themselves on the rocks anymore (at least from what I've seen). Also, I will look into getting a Protein Skimmer. Correct me if I am wrong, a...
