Thanks bro. But my tank is still only a very basic setup compared to lots of other bros out there. So you can definately have something like that.

Each day is a learning step for me . A word of advice is to just read up on marine stuff and always ask if in doubt and you're on your road to having a successful marine tank.

There are lots of helpful reefers in SRC willing to give their advice.

All the best and happy reefing.

Refugiums necessary?

why do you have to put the light so high?

At that point in time I did not have a chiller. This was done to prevent the water from heating up too much as the MH light generates quite a considerable amount of heat.

Extremely true... like mine... moving around bulldozing its way around... but it's too pretty to be given away... oh I manage to catch my Big Mama yesterday and given away to a kind bro. Go to my tank thread... you can see the shocking damage it is possible of inflicting... basically almost 30% of my scaping gone... along with some corals (esp. my Prata on the floor bed) injured!!! Beware of this guy... of course my Big Mama is whopping 3.5"!!!

Heat from MH huh? Tell me all about it :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: I've downgraded my lighting few days ago just because of that reason alone... so far my corals (mostly softies and LPS) are looking cool... you can visit my Product Review thread to see how my corals are adjusting to the T5 tubes... I hope I don't have to look for a new MH fixture anytime soon :erm:

Oh bro... you may wanna cover your plugs a little... I have to do something to mine too <_<
