Yea I realized I was going to here some horror stories. Hasn’t even given the ocelaris clowns a second look so far. Yes if I ever have to get it out it’s going require pulling all the rocks.

I picked up a neon dottyback this past Friday. It has been behaving pretty good, except to my nasarius snails, that it harasses. It doesn’t bother the other snails, although i have seen it eyeballing them. The only shrimp I have is a tiger pistol who is as big as the dottyback and is protected...

Great explanation. Nice to see someone still repairing solid state electronics. Earlier in my aviation carrier we used to troubleshoot it. It’s almost all gone from the new fleet.

Ok. Thx for the info.

Well there are several brands out there. Well do a little research. Ill post when I make my decision.

Adjustable dc pump is a good idea. Get oversized and tune it to my liking. No guess work. No calculation.

What would be a good pump for a 10 gal display and a about 4 gal sump with a 3.5 ft head, 1 ball valve and 2 pvc elbows. I have a 290 gpm $20.00 pond fountain pump that has been running nonstop for 2.5 year. I’m thinking about an upgrade. It was running a little noisy a couple days ago. I turned...

Very nice! Coincidentally,a 40b with a 20L sump is my next move too. I will go to Alex @ IOA as well.

Ah. I get it. Thanks for the info. That will look better than just bare glass as well as add a layer of protection. Nice touch!

Looks good! What is an ABS bottom though?

Yea I do have a pistol shrimp & watchman goby. I need a sand bed. Thanks for bringing that to the discussion.

Thanks. That’s what I figured. Just don’t want the fish to be stressed cause there to confined vertically. The coral are fine as long as there submerged.

I am looking graduate from my nano reef to a bigger system. One of the tanks that has sparked my interest is the Cad Lights 45 Versa shallow. The tank is only 11” deep. Is this enough vertical space for your general community reef fish? Obviously it would be easy on lighting. The sump ads 30 gal...

I’ll be there. Looking forward to it.

Now that it’s on the 18th, Im not sure if I can make it.

I recommend captive bred clowns. One slightly bigger than the other. Put them in at the same time. My Experience is they do great in a small tank. My smaller one use to hide a lot. Took 2 years for the bigger fish to accept his company. Actually in the last month or so they finally started...

I will be attending this meeting. This one is actually not to far for me . Will be my first.

I have a small bubble magus in sump. As far as nano skimmer go, it works decent. Most nano skimmer, don’t work very well from my experience, but this works Ok. I don’t know if it’s even worth running a skimmer in a nano.

Hopefully since the tube is not exposed, it will remain in better condition.

I had a situation with my HOG algae turf scrubber. The manufacture glues the airhose in very securely. It could not be remove without destroying the thin plastic housing. Over time the hose gets brittle and cracks. Got some air hose clips. Drill some holes in the side, poke them through and glue...
