I mucked up with my photo labels - there are new pics of the Acan over in my RSM thread, including one showing some nice new polyps developing at the back. I'm just keeping a few zoos, a mushroom, and a green candycane in this little tank.

Yarr! Send some!

What, only in your head? (just kidding :lol: - seems like a good set-up )
-
They won't change the pH (not measureably, anyway), but they will act as a buffer against the pH dropping.
-
It is not the same as table salt - table salt contains additives like Iodine. If you are looking for a cheap substitute use ROCK SALT. Better still, do more water changes and you wont need it at all.
-
It needs to get food poisoning and be put down.
-
Don't forget that the above applies to adults - not juveniles.
-
I don't think a sun coral would be a good idea - too many nutrients introduced when you feed it. This set-up will only work if you understand its limitations and respect the fact that it will only support a lightly stocked arrangement. If you want to keep a full range of corals and fish, then something like the RSM is probably the minimum you'll require.

Bangaii Cardinal Six line Wrasse
-
Yes there is... someone I know is working on that right now. I reckon a single 55watt T5 out of an RSM might fit nicely My tank is going to be the most hot-rodded Hailea400 ever!!!!!!

about 2 buckets / 20 litres / one third / 30% / one-in-three / ...
-
I don't think a skimmer would be that useful - water changes are the best way or removing nitrates etc, and replenishing other good nutrients, and its only three buckets worth anyway - probably easier than cleaning a skimmer and doing water changes (because you'll have to do changes anyway).
-
I think so - a firefish, or a small wrasse, and or a cleaner shrimp. I plan on putting a Bangaii Cardinal in there. Check with John about what will be suitable.

Good Dixon. Honestly, marine stuff is so expensive that you really can't afford to use cheap components - and don't forget most marine fish come from the wild, so you have a moral obligation to look after them, including buying the best gear that you can afford.

BAD BAD BAD WILSON!!!!

NO DIXON! BAD DIXON!

I really must stop skim-reading the interwebs :oops: Here's a thought - go to your local fish and chip shop - lots of them have posters with all the wierd fish that Sealord etc pull up
-
BAD WILSON!

Post up a pic, I have books I can look at for you.
-
Yep, they cost more up front but they last, you can calibrate them, and remember marine stuff is a lot more sensitive to temperature change, so you have to buy a good one. As I've said earlier, there are no more corners to cut
-
Their price might include the optional stand, which I didn't bother with.
-
Give them a ring 351 3001
-
Just don't forget that this is the bare minimum - you can't cut any more corners at all, and it will cost quite a bit for salt for the weekly water changes. Have fun

$499.99 pp (minus the Sea Bunny)

Maybe...
