That's probably the best advice. You probably don't even need to add the live rock. It will eventually build up detritus and will have to be rinsed occasionally. But then again, the rock will help to reduce the splashing noise

FWIW I have (2) 1 watt LED's over my 180g now. They are made to fit on my MH reflectors. It's bright enough for me.

I've always wondered if there is any truth to moonlights helping with coral and fish spawning. I just can't see how this is possible. The moon isn't only light, it controls the tides and gravity as well. I would think that would have more to do with it then how much light is output from an LED...

If I'm not mistaken Chromis aren't schooling fish, they are shoaling fish. Meaning that they will group together when frightened.

Thanks, gang! Yes, I did have the elite crew over...it would never have gotten done as fast as it did if I didn't! C'mon Billy...what's a little nano going to hurt? ;D Oh, and when I was re doing the rock that hand tried to grab me, so I had to get rid of it...lol

Here is a picture of day two. I re-aquascaped a bit (honestly didn't need to do a hell of a lot!) and added a background...still no sand, not sure if I'm going to add it or not.

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! It's still noisy, I haven't bought the cap for it yet...hopefully that will quiet it down a bit.

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Thanks guys...went out today and bought a small clean up crew just to get started...no sign of that wrasse yet...I really wonder where he went to!

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Sheesh, forget one thing and you hear about it immediately...Yes, PHYL did a nice job aquascaping...just for that...i'm changing it! :P

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Still need to add a background and move some corals around...but here is the first (not so good) picture...

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Yup! Pretty much done!! Fish look pretty happy, some corals look good, some look OK. I can't complain! A HUGE thank you to: Phyl, John, Ed, Paul, Bob, MikeM, Billy and Bill. I can't thank you guys enough for helping me pull off a whole tank change over in ONE day...

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Okay, so Saturday it is...I was sweating a little bit today...we are having concrete work done in the back yard and I didn't think they would be able to finish with all the rain, but they worked through it! WOO HOO So for Saturday it looks like we have: John and...

Stick with it, Ed! If I made it through the flatworms, bryopsis and caulpera outbreaks you can make it through this!

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Whatever time is good for everyone...I dunno...around 10(ish)?

Re: Brian's 225g Monstrosity! Saturday seems like it's going to be the day...so whoever can make it, that would be great!!
