Posted a few days ago but no answers back, trying again........... Would like to read posts from other users of the Euro-Reef skimmer, would like to share observations and setup/tuning ideas....... Thanks, Greg B.

I wanted to have a bubble wand or two in the back lenght of the aquarium for the effect. I was told by one person that bubbles in salt aquarium lead to the salt collecting at the top glass, above water level, where the bubbles "pop". I assume this also leads to lower salinity over time. Any...

So, I finally got my light kit and built a box and hung them from my ceiling. Setup: 2 X 250 Watt Metal Halide 10,000K 2 X 54 Watt(I think) Actinic T5 flourescent. That's mounted in a metal reflector.

I read a while back that you can run a mag 3 pump on the remora pro. I tried it and it over flowed. Doe's anyone have a better way of running the remora pro than using the RIO that come with it ? Harry

Hey huys. Check this out. The unique colors saved this lobster from a date with a dinner plate! This two- toned lobster was caught last week by a canadian fisherman off newfoundland. The lobster is half orange, the color when a lobster is cooked, and half green. The fisherman who caught the...

I have a new Coralife Deep Six hydrometer that I've been using for the past year or so. But over the weekend I sorted through my trash can full of aquarium supplies, and found my old "The Original" Seatest hydrometer that I've had for probably 20 years. The Coralife reads 1.022, and the tank has...

It's an old problem I know, just got a lovely light green bubble tip anemone, but he cause trouble on his first night in the tank. Currently he is sitting bang in the middle of a bunch of pulse coral heads, and you can tell the coral is not at all pleased with the situation. I like anemones, but...

I like this forum. You guys have been very helpful and keep it interesting. I just got my Outer Orbit lighting system by CurrentUSA. Awesome light by the way. Anyway I've read a few opinions on timing the lights and wanted to hear some "live" information and what's been working for...

Has anyone had any experience with these fish? The LFS have rated it as a moderate risk to corals but I don't want it destroying my reef. Briefly, I have 100 gallon tank and the corals I don't want destroyed are a Pagoda coral (Turbinaria), Goniopora, various Zooanthus polyps, Clavularia and...

So I'm browsing at the primary non-chain pet store in town, which has just moved to a new location. Along with their new location they have a new policy on marine livestock. "No guarantee on marine livestock. Disease and loss are your responsibility. We believe our livestock to be healthy and...

Hi all, I've got a smallish bubble-tip anemone that got partially eaten by a chocolate-chip star. Basically the main body is intact, but the tentacles are nearly all gone. The anemone is still moving around the tank at times (right now hanging off the back side of the tank near the water line) and...

I have used PC fixture I was given. The brand name is "Top". It came with 2 55w lamps. The fixture is pretty beatup, but works fine. I am thinking of taking it apart and mounting the innards in a new housing. I am also wondering if this fixture can run 65w lamps. If I plug a 65 into this ballast,...
