Small white stars are usually asterinas, perfectly reef safe. Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Yes it's a 55. I will be sure to let everyone know how the GFO reactor works. Rock is in the tank!

Oh, ok. Sounds good. I'm looking forward to seeing the final product. Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

http://s1150.photobucket.com/albums/o602/Purevil21/220%20Gallon%20Reef%20Build/ I changed the scape and finished the sump build. The rubble and pumps are in place, and the GFO reactor is mounted. The section on the right is where the skimmer will sit. Plumbing is all dry fit, ill glue it soon...

Rock showed up, it's been rinsed and I made a aquascape in the garage on top of some egg crate cut to fit the tank. Let me know what you guys think, I'm up for changes. It's very difficult to scape 300lbs. of rock and come up with anything better than "pile-o-rock". I do like the small bridge in...

I agree, probably too much light. What temperature is your tank and could you post a pic? Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Long-term success is the goal huh wiggles. I even find that switching up the brands of salt works well over time. Each brand uses a slightly different mix, some have more calcium or mag than others. Switching between all of them can help keep things balanced, tip I learned from a guy who's been...

Looks like Cyano to me (red slime algae). Commonly caused when there are flow issues. Are the areas where it's growing in a dead flow area of your tank? If so, toss a power head on it to help prevent future outbreaks.

If the chaeto is turning clear I'm thinking that lighting is the issue. Either too much or too little. What exactly are you using for light?

I'm sorry if you feel that the responses given have been elitist, but one word really jumped out at me from your post. Innovation. Your asking why we don't give innovation a try, but that's what we are doing. What you guys are talking about doing is what people did during the infancy of the...

Glad that your interested in taking the sw plunge. Sounds like your heading the right direction, but ditch the fake plants. A lot of things between sw and fw are similar, but a lot of things are different too. Huge water changes in sw can prove detrimental. I wouldn't advise buying live rock...

Another piece of the puzzle is here.

Lol, just checked my shipping number...they are on my porch as I type. Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Yeah, its a standard 55. Middle section is going to be for the fuge, skimmer, gfo reactor, and a return pump on either end. Pumps should arrive tomorrow now that I think about it. Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

Undulated trigger...wow he was angry. Sent from my PC36100 using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

I agree with the above advice, research and research more. You will need a lot of things, from rock and sand to filtration. But before I could offer you much help, what do you want to do with the tank? Is this going to be a FOWLR or a full blown reef? Is your tank drilled or non-drilled? What...

I didn't flame anyone, you came on here reeking of arrogance while claiming ignorance. Your article said nothing about fish diet promoting gill and slime coat health, which are the two points I gave you. I did not say that what your fish eats has nothing to do with it's health. Diet has a lot to...

Any reason that you come on here claiming to know nothing but then talking down to everyone? You didn't hear what you wanted, sorry. Your not going to get anyone on here to recommend using plain salt. Marine salt is so expensive because it replicates the ocean protecting slime coats and...

Thanks, I was just curious. I'm planning on going with the Aqua Illuminations Vegas.
