Does anyone know were I can find a Coralife super skimmer pump for the up to 125gal modle? The pump I had is shot. 

I am new to this life and I have a 120gal with all the extras. I have ordered 135lbs of live rock and have been told two different things. Our LFS [70 miles away] told me that I needed lights on or the live rock will die. Another soarce told me that I should not use lights till the tank has cycled. Which one is right?

I currently have a 14 gallon bio cube and was wandering if there was a way to get more watts per gallon. I think it gets about 3.4 so i couldn't get the acropora and the higher lighting corals.

Thanks in advance

This is the second time at having a reef tank. My first one was a 20L ,  but I found out that when you move it isn't easy to move tank and in Pa. It does matter where you move to. One town can have good water out of the tap, and one town over and it's heavily treated. So you live and you learn, now I use ID water and there's some new products that I use.

Hello World!

 Hi, I'm Waffleman and I'm a reefaholic! 

 This is my first blog ever, so I will give a brief summary of my reeftank.

Hardware:

My system consists of a 29Gallon tank

• HOB skimmer (prizm)
• Aquaclear 200 filter for carbon.
• 150 Watt heater 
• 250W MH for reeflux 12K bulb
• Koralia 3 for circulation
• 30lbs of LR
  

Corals 

I keep a mix of corals, SPS, LPS and soft a little over 30 variaties

Fish 

• Clarkii Clown
• Yellow tang 

This system has been up and running since 2003. Of course there was a steep learning curve associated with this adventure. It all started when we saw the movie Nemom and it's been downhill from there.

Up until about a year and a half ago a was unable to keep SPS's. Now I have good luck with the montiporas, I still have issues with the acros.

Overall I'm quite content with the system, although I'm planning a 90Gallon reef system, to take the place of my 75G planted tank.

Finally I got my 40 gallon tank back after a year in Siberia.. After my wife had me removed from my house during our seperation..(long sad story) My tank was left unnatended for 45 days needless to say I lost everything..it took me a year of daily attendance to build up such a amazing tank. After the 45 days I was allowed to get my tank back and transfered it to my moms. Unfortunatly she had no idea how to take care of it. So in all I lost about 2000 dollars in sea life.  Well today is a new day and I  set up my tank yesterday and filled it with water from the Monterey bay by some kind of miracel all my water levels are normal. I will post pictures later..I am in the Stockton CA so if you live near by let me know if you have anything you would like to donate or sell cheap..for I can't afford to go out and by all new sealife..  saltydog@blowbackusa.com
