With my very limited experience so far my first choice for QT/hospital tanks would multiple smaller tanks rather than 1 large tank. I have 2 - 20 longs and a 50. I've yet to use the 50 gal. If...

Lol, yeah. It was the only way I could reach the bottom well enough to cut out the old silicone when I resealed it. Thankfully the wife didn't throw "this" fish back :D

Thanks for the links guys....

Looking good. Looks to me that "tree coral" is a Kenya tree. I regret putting one in mine. It'll drop those branches all over and before ya know it, it'll be everywhere. When you see it drop a branch...

My bad, upon further reading and searching I mis-understood. The EB8's are SSR and TRIAC controlled. I read the Wiki on TRIAC and got a headache :confused: I doubt I'll be having any of those.

Agreed.

I don't clean my back glass at all and have tons of rock that he does graze on all day. Funny how he'll peck his way around the dictyota though. Once my bigger tank is running I'll be...
