The way it is set up the third pump is not a recirc. pump, but the mod is easy. One thing about the G-6, make sure you do the gate valve mod unless you like having water sprayed every where. The...

Looking at the specs on the Aqua Ultraviolet website they look like they are very similar. For my application the 57 watt version with the wiper takes up a lot less room and will fit where I need it.

Jamison,

You can use the uniseal just like a bulkhead, just be careful when using them on tanks with thin glass. Heating the uniseal in hot water and using a little lubricant on it when pushing...

I have to agree with David on the ASM skimmers. I've got a G-6 on one system and a G-5 on another. Great skimmers.

David, the 40 watt and 57 watt Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizers are about the same...

Re: Lobsters in restraunts.

I do the maintenance for several of the local Red Lobser tanks, so I can tell you a little about them.

The lobster tanks they use here are made by MarineLand. They are 100 gallon tanks with about...

acropora nut,

Nice looking tank and great color. Are you using the 12K CoralVue? After doing a lot of reading I ordered a 12K Coralvue for a new 60 gallon cube I'm setting up and was trying to...

Thanks for the suggestions. I had planed on using some 3" and 4" PVC to make some caves in the tank for them. I know it's not real pretty, but it makes for easier cleaning.

This morning they...

So far everything I put in the tank. :D They act like little pigs. So far I've tried Formula 1 and 2, brine shrimp, and choped clams.

Thanks Marina. I noticed that and have already started the treatment. Sorry for the pictures. Up close it looks like they got a little beat up during shipping or collection.

Just that I don't know what impurities may be in it and how it has been stored. Most of the chemicals used in pools will kill your tank very quickly. I'd hate to think the bag of DE I just bought...

That works. I've got a couple of the G-6's running now and had to do that to get both of them set up. Once you get it on the first time it will be easier to put back on after you take it apart to...

sunfishh,

I've got two different diatom filters that I use every day and love them. They make life a lot easier for me. I've never used the DE for pools and would be a little scared of it.

Matt,

I've set up a couple of the 48" Outer Orbit's on tanks and really didn't like the bulbs that came with them, way to yellow for my taste. I switched the bulbs for some 14K bulbs.

markvanderwoude,

Before adding a bunch of stuff to your tank you need to look at what you have in the tank. Do you have corals, and what kind? Many corals don't need a lot of extra feeding if...

Scrumf,

The bioballs really should go. With 200 pounds of live rock in the tank you don't need them.

Another thing to look at is your test kit. I opened a new one a few weeks ago and tested...
