  1. Aqua Medic Turbo Flotor 1000 Multi Skimmer set up

    Hi all. Nice to be back on Reefs.Org. Been hangin' out on other boards for a while. I am about to install an Aqua Medic Turbo Flotor 1000 Multi (directions were not included). I also had to replace the Aqua Bee pump which didn't work originally. I have new pump (OR1700) on the way from Aqua...
  2. Powerhead just gets hot, nothing else happens

    I plug in my new powerhead and I can feel the casing getting warmer very very quickly but there is no noise, no vibration, and no water movement. I mail ordered it from the USA so returning it is not really easy to do. Any simple suggestions? Thanks.
  3. How big should my sump be?

    My tank demensions are: Rectangular shape 62.5" long 17.2" deep 24" high I was thinking of having (1) Mag 18 as my return pump and (2) Durso Stand Pipes because I wanted to be certain that enough water was flowing down to the sump to compensate for he Mag 18. I might even want to increase to...

  7. about to drop $300... sound good?

    I am interested in Fiji LR from Marine Depot so I will follow this thread closely. Please let us know the details of your experience with Marine Depot and the rock itself. I am curious to know how much and what kind of life is on the rock and if the rock is shapely compared to Florida...

    I am just about to install a Mag 1800 on the new tank that I have been planning forever... I am so grateful for the information and experience shared here. Thank you everyone. This info on the Mag 1800 is so invaluable to me as I am working so hard to get it right from the start. Grateful...
  9. Puffers w/ inverts ?

    Of all fish, I am most attracted to puffers but they seem incompatible with reef tanks. I am not big on fish, finding more enjoyment from the inverts and the various other critters and corals. I would like a puffer at some point but I think a low bio-load is key to a healthy tank so we'll see...
  10. Puffers w/ inverts ?

    I would like to get a puffer, will they eat inverts, corals, soft tissue polyps, etc.?
  11. Cannot decide between 440w and 250w MH

    In the new tank that I am building I have the option between 250 & 400 watt metal halides. Both are available locally - both are within my budget. I like to be prepared for any outcome. The tank will realistically be FOWLR and some mushrooms and polyps for the first four to six months. Only...

  13. SQWD Owners....

    I would like to see photos of SQWD plumbing/connections/in use. I am using a Mag 1800 but I have it plumbed through alot of pipe to tone it down a bit. I am wondering if it's too much pressure for a SQWD. How could I find out?

    The 36" Triton bulb by Aquarium Products is 30 watts. The 36" Blue Moon bulb by Aquarium Products is 30 watts.
  15. Do Blue Moon & Triton Bulbs really need IceCap 660 Balla

    I plan on supplementing two 250 MH on 120 Gal. tank with either two Triton and two Blue Moon flourescent bulbs or four Blue Moons (suggestions appreciated). Are these flourescent bulbs VHO and therefore require a special ballast? Can I run the bulbs on regular flourescent fixtures? In the...
