    DIY 110gal stand and canopy build

    Oh, I picked right up on that! As soon as I saw them I thought "Uh huh, that's an Oceanic door all right!" It really looks great Mike. I love the stuff you do with the those scrolly decoration things.

    anyone successfully *control* majanos?

    The bodies on ours extend pretty far out like that. We have a few that come and go but have never really been a nuisance. I guess we're just lucky. Once every 8 months or so I mix up some paste and nuke all of the ones I see but there's never more than half a dozen of them. I only nuke them...

    That stinks. It's always the "no brainers" that take forever!

    Algae- I have no phospates

    I'm not sure how to get it off the rockwork, but I can comment on your "lack" of phosphates. The reason you are showing no phosphates when you test is most likely because the algae is absorbing it all to stay alive. It's there and it's feeding the algae, there is just nothing left to show up on...

    recommendation corals for beginners of Nano 24g?

    I would recommend he stay away from frilly mushrooms, GSP's and button polyps. They killed my nano. Grew too fast and killed everything pretty. He may want to try some nicely colored lobo's, plates, favias, platygyras or welsi's. They are all fairly hardy and pretty slow growers.

    Keeping snails out of return pump?

    I'm pretty sure the teeth in the overflows keeps everything in the tank. I do have some fish and inverts in my sump but I'm using bulk head strainers to keep them out of the pump.

    AUTOMATED AQUARIUM SYSTEMS

    OK maybe it is me! I just thought the website looked a lot like PA's home page (not their store pages). They're probably both using the same homepage software.

    AUTOMATED AQUARIUM SYSTEMS

    That looks pretty cool. Is it me or does that look exactly like PA's website? I wonder if they're involved in it?

    im new here looking for reef stores in nj

    I agree with the others. If you don't mind popping off the Parkway on your way down or back, Trop is a pretty good place. They may be a little pricey (as are most LFS') but they generally have a nice selection and the store is really impressive. There's another place a few miles off of Parkway...

    Help Tank Setup

    We're going to need a little more info to go on. Is this leak coming from the drain line bulk head? Did you put the bulk head in or was it already there? Have you tried tightening the nut? Sorry, it's kind of tough to diagnose with the information you gave.

    Anyone own a store?

    . . . maybe with a small reef section in back? (he asks hopefully!) Good luck with what ever you decide to do.

    My 55 Gallon.

    Looks good. Lots of nice flat shelves for placing coral. Should look great when it's all grown in.

    Sorry to hear that. Especially being an old fat guy myself! Hopefully you won't need surgery and you'll be able to make it. Good luck and hope you're OK.

    Help!!! Trying to set up new RR tank, plumbing, WATER LEAKING..

    I've never seen an application where the end of the drain hose was glued into an elbow. I'm not saying it's never been done, but I just haven't seen it. Believe it or not, there is a little flex in the end of that ribbed hose connection and a hose clamp tightens it right up. Here some pics of...
