    WTB LEDS for FOWLR

    So far my AI Sol Blue's are great. The Ecotech Radions are getting some great press as well. The biggest thing for me is that the unit have some type of modular setup. If a bulb went I want to be able to replace it without replacing the entire unit.

    Hidden Reef Opinions

    I am taking the kids down to the Camden aquarium tomorrow and the Hidden Reef would only take me about 15 minutes out of the way (on the way home). I have never been to this place before and was just curious if it is worth the stop. Thanks

    Skimmer producing tons of water (Aqua C remora HOB)

    The best thing for my skimmer was adding a auto top off system. As the water level in my sump went up and down my skimmer efficiency did as well. I have had an ATO on my system for about 3 weeks, haven't changed my skimmer setting ever since.

    Drain line....

    Today I replaced the 1" flex hose with rigid PVC. Glad I did. upon further inspection the flex hose has a .5" gash in it. Would of been a nightmare. Honestly I am close to replacing all of it with PVC and leaving the braided hose for the returns as the braided hose is pretty tough.

    Drain line....

    So I was doing my weekly inspection of my gear and noticed a drop forming on one of my drain lines. I use a 2 foot flexible hose for my daring line and it appears there is slight tear somewhere. I am hoping to run out and find exactly what I need so I can replace it tonight, just not...

    FOWLR vs Reef

    Ok since I lost my fish to ICH a few weeks ago I have let the tank sit and just let it age out. I have done two water changes and maintained all my levels. Now its time to start thinking about adding critters. I am leaning towards the FOWLR because I am nervous about getting a sickness again...

    StarFish issue

    My blue starfish today has a crack in one of its legs and is oozing some white stringy substance. Not in the best place for me to take a picture, but it does move from one place to another, just seems really strange. Should i just wait and leave it be? Will its death like this harm my tank...

    Ich

    I lost my Kole Tang and the flame Angel. I have been using the Herbtana which has pushed it away from my clowns and wrasse. The hippo tang doesn't look good so I am not hopeful to save that one. Its the price you pay, and while frustrated it will continue on.

    Ich

    Appears that my hippo and Kole tangs have ICH. What medicines have people had success with? I do have inverts in my tank so copper is out of the question. Anyone have good experience with the Ruby Reef Kick-Ich or other medicines? Thanks

    Bubble Anemone Behavior After Water Change
