Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I think your pump needs to be close to the reservoir so you have a short pickup hose and a longer output. It easier for the pump to push the water then pull it.

What can I say that hasn't been said beautiful tanks and a great host and hostees. Good luck with the new little one. I look forward to the next time I can drool over your tank!
Thanks
Bob
News flash, Your not a club member! You have a ID on the website. If you were interested you would have seen that the problem was solved days before you posted! Read the thread.
The only problem that I've had with livestock are my snails. Every so often one goes in and it looks like he was shot out of a cannon when he'leaves' :D

I been running the Reeflux 12Ks for about 2 years. Tried some others but went back to the Reeflux, great color! I have no experience with the others.

It sounds like you have a short in the 3rd light that is why it trips the breaker. Check the wiring for any frayed or cracked insulation and that all the connections are tight.

I just had my GBTA split also into 3. I used a small screwdriver to dig under the surface of the lr (still attached to the anemone). Worked like a charm. The last time I used a powerhead and ice and it took me a couple of hours, this time it took 15 minutes (included fending off my irate clown)...
With 2 year old bulbs your lucky that's the only algae you have. General concensis is a year or less on MHs. It's probably effecting your coral growth also.

How about a Coolworks Ice Probe Chiller. Not sure how well the work but they are small and relatvely cheap. There's one for sale in the forsale forum, $70 (demon16v). Hopefully someone will chime in with more info.

I was thinking of fragging some zoos that are on my lr which I can't remove from the tank. If I frag it in the tank will the polythoa toxins effect my other corals (tank is a 46g). I do %20 water changes every week.
