Yep, every week like clockwork. I've been doing a bit more than 40 since adding the 5' frag tank since I figured I have more water volume now. A bucket of salt per month :(.

When I had my frags in there I was only running 150 watt halides. But I did run a 250 watt halide on my 20 gallon frag tank which was only about 11" of water I think. They were all about 8" off the...

How big is your pond? I think I'm going to cheat a bit and make my pond 27". I do have a 6' fence all the way around anyway, except for my gate which goes down to about 5' due to slope. Good tips...

Finally, pics. Looks good. I would take the foam ring off of the wave box so that you never have to take them out to clean. I've only had to take mine out I think 2 or 3 times in almost 2 years -...

Wow Mike, double question run on sentence? :)

I've had them for 3.5 months and like I've said, I'll wait 6 months. So far the colour and growth seem normal for my tank. Some corals are almost...

Sumps are designed with baffles etc so that bubbles don't end up back in your display tank. Think of your frag tank as a display tank - you probably don't want to see bubbles while inspecting or...

Drains always have bubbles, unless you have your WC tank outfitted with a Herbie. Bubbles will rise and splash, causing salt creep. Does this make any sense? I think you'll be happier with a...

Johnny,

I wouldn't have the water change tank drain into the frag tank (this will cause bubbles and salt creep). Tee off the pump and feed the frag tank separately. Hope this helps. And I've...

Looks great!. Is that room seriously only about 7 feet wide? Did you build it just for the aquarium?

Only crashes I've had are due to vacations and very capable people "looking after" the tank and being lazy. (not topping up sump and letting it run dry).

Remember, wait another 3 months before you do anything. It hasn't gotten the Dez stamp of approval yet ;). 6 months I believe is a fair trial.

They are loud though and that's the thing that...

Yup, I ran the T5s with the halides as well. So the only variable that's change is I switched out the halides. You can tell when the LEDs aren't on. It's quite a bit dimmer.

By the fall I should know wether I will sell my halides or not. That'll be the 6 month mark with those LEDs. So far so good though.
