My Oceanic 58 gallon RR tank came with this seaclone protein skimmer. I do not sea the protein skimmer producing a whole lot of waster compared to other protein skimmer that I have owned in the past. The only positive thing that I can see with this skimmer is its size. It fits perfectly next to...
I have a mag 9.5 return pump in my sump and was wondering if anyone knows of a quieter pump that produces the same amount of volume. This pump is a little louder than I expected and can be somewhat of a nuisance when you are trying to read.
Thanks - Jon
I wanted to mount them in the cleanest way possible without it showing any wires etc. That is why I was looking at the coralife 1 watt lunar light. These lights are attached to an arm that is flexible. It seems that the can be mounted on the back of the tank and can than bend to be pointed in...
My 58 gallon oceanic reef ready tank is finally up and running. I have the TEK T5 6 bulb light hanging over the tank and want to purchase lunar lights. Does anyone know of a good quality lunar light that I can attach to the back of the tank and can be positioned for optimal viewing. I am trying...
As I have previously posted I recently bought a used 58 gallon oceanic ultimate reef ready tank. The set up came with a quite one 3000 as my return pump. I have been doing some research regarding this pump and do not see too many positive reviews about it.
So I was curious if my mag 9.5 return...
I recently purchased a used 58 gallon oceanic ultimate reef ready tank. The tanks is in good shape but is missing the cap for the overflow. The previous owner had the canopy on top so the overflow could not be seen. But, I have a hanging 6 bulb tek light that I am going to use. Therefor I can...
I recently bought a Oceanic 58 gallon reef ready tank on ebay. The tank comes with a oceanic stand and canopy, oceanic sump with in sump protein skimmer, 75 lbs of live rock, live sand and a small amount of live stock. All of this cost me just $300. I was the lone bidder and think I got a good...
I just bought a house and a used tank on ebay today. My tank will be placed in the living room on hardwood floors. I am concerned that at some point in time water will either spill and or salt will build up on the stand and may damage my floors. Is there a special mat that you can reccomend I...
I was thinking of using an aqumedic 250 wat metal halide retro kit with an electronic balast and a 36" ready fit two lamp retro kit by sunlight supply.
I am thinking about buyig a 58 gallon oceanic reef ready ultimate tank. The tank comes with a canopy and I was wondering if anyone has ever done a home made retro fit lighting unit before.
I currently have a tek light T5 6 bulb canopy that would work for the tank minus the canopy. I really...
Has anyone been to this store? I am new to the area and am looking for a good quality LFS. This one is a bit far and I do not want to waste my time if it is not a worth it. I have been to Aquarium Center in Blackwood and it is ok. What I am looking for is a higher end shop. I don't mind spend a...
Since I have found out that using a RO/DI unit is the way to go to do water changes I now have new questions regarding the set up.
1. Where is the most common place to set up the unit to a direct water line? I think the laundry room would be sufficient but am not positive.
2. When using the...
OK I just moved to Jersey from San Francisco. I have been in the hobby for the past 5 years and have a good feel for what I am doing. That is... until I moved here...
I went to Aquarium Center in Blackwood NJ today (the closest LFS to me)and found out that they do not sell natural sea water to...
I am moving to Gloucester County NJ in a couple of weeks and am looking to start a new tank. Rather than ship mine from CA I want to upgrade to a bigger project. Can anyone give me some advice of some local retailers who sell quality tanks at a reasonable price. I am really thinking about a...
