  1. I picked up the canopy to my new tank today and am interested in painting the inside part a white color. I want to do this to seal the wood as well as help with reflecting left over light. What type of paint would I use for this and were can I buy it?
  2. Im selling this 29 gallon bow front tank with stand. Also comes with 2 hang on back filters rated for a 20 to 40 gallon tank. There is not a light for the tank. Also the foil on top is to keep the dust out after I cleaned it. I live in New Braunfels so you will have to pick up here or I can meet you in San Marcos. Thanks for looking. Sorry for the side way pics.
  3. Mine ate my peppermint shrimp the other day. Came home to see the tail sticking out of the BTA mouth. Hasn't expelled anything yet.
  4. Ya I found out yesterday that it's the protien skimmer pump that's making all of the noise. I'm going to have to switch it out with another pump I have. Thanks for all of the help
  5. never thought about it that way. i always assumed that it helped with flow in the tank. i guess thats why they make circulation fans for the inside.
  6. i figured this. i was just trying to get something more quite then whats in there. well i guess ill keep what i have until i get the big tank set up. do you think this pump will be good for the 120 gallon tank? thanks for responding.
  7. What do you think about using a Quiet One 4000 on my 29 gallon biocube? Is it to much? It gets close to 1000 GPH at 0 head room and I have about 3 feet from the refugium to the tank?
  8. I want to thank all of you for responding. I got me some salt today and mixed up a gallon to add for top offs. I'll test it in a couple of days to see if it's going up.
  9. ill have to get me one of those first. im old school right now. im using a hydrometer until i can get a refractometer
  10. so i got my tank back finally and its up and running good. things are looking ok but im having issues with my salinity. its between 1.019 and 1.020. how can i raise this without messing anything up?
  11. That's cool. Can't get them yet. Thanks anyways.
  12. Would you be willing to hold the 6 head one for me until next month when I get my tank back?
  13. So the rock mags are in your 400 gallon? That's cool. Can't wait to get my 120 up and running.
  14. Well it's very nice. I saw your 400 gallon one but didn't know that you had others as well. I thought you combined them all together.
  15. The tank looks very nice. Is this your home tank?
  16. Take a look at the video posted in the other post titled portland cement if you don't mind and give me your opinion. Thanks
  17. Did you watch the YouTube video I posted? What do you think about the out come of his rocks?
  18. Good to know. I'll add more flow once I get my tank back. Thanks for your help.
  19. I will have to take pictures of the ones that I have if I can still find any. I think they are the same one that you had. So all you did was change/add more flow and use your skimmer?
  20. Are you going to dip your rocks as well? I know I keep asking this but I want to make sure that when I get ready to dip I don't make a mistake and kill the rock or something.
  21. Cool. I'm going to give it a try. I'll post some pics once I do so people and chime in with their opinions before I add them to the tank. Thanks again for your responses.
  22. Regarding your first paragraph, after I dip everything will it be ok to put the rocks straight back into the tank along with fish and corals? I've never used the dip before and wan to make sure it's not going to be soaked up by the rocks then release to much back into the tank
  23. Thanks for the information. Did you have to cycle them before you added them to your tank or where they already done for you. Also have you ever made any yourself?
