PFO MH 400wx3 Laclede, ID

I hate to have done it but I don't have time for my 125g and I doubt I will for many years.

Ricordia tend to be around $30 - $50 for one or two mushrooms. They are expensive but they are some of the most interesting mushrooms.

I would maybe consider some ricordia as far as mushrooms go but you will be paying a hefty price for them as well. Your unusually and bright Zoas fetch a good price too.

I have 3x400w MH and 2x160w VHO over my 125g (22" deep and the lights are about 7" from the top of the tank), and I have Xenia growing at various places in the tank. There is some about 6" from the...

Never read that one, but I highly recommend "The Conscientious Marine Aquarist" as far as I am concerned it is the best marine beginner book out there. It is by Bob Fenner.

where do we start? First, run out and buy "The Conscientious Marine Aquarist". You should not have an anenome in a 22g tank period unless you are very experienced, let alone in a tank that has just...

Damn. If you catch it I wouldn't necessarily kill it. Some people set up special tanks for mantis. If I ever found one around here I would do it.

Hmmm, that is odd. I used to use in a lab and those computers weren't nearly that fast. What do you have for a video card? That is what is really important for SolidWorks.

I would say not because they are 7 1/2" wide and your tank is 12" wide. If you bought the legs you might be able to make it work but you would have a bit of overhang though which would kinda defeat...

There are some many possibilities, but IME pistol shrimps have been pretty well behaved. More than likely the goby would scare it away before it ever got into the hole.

5 watts per gallon isn't a very accurate way to describe lighting. 2 100w incandescent bulbs could provide 5 watts per gallon, doesn't mean it is appropriate lighting.

Well, I definitely think you should rethink the idea of no protein skimmer. Have you been doing water changes? 2-3 weeks is normal it can take 8 weeks at times.
