As for what will like your system, How much flow do you have in the tank and what kind of lights are you running?

Sounds like your salt tank is quite established. Have you got any pics of the tank that you can post? If you need anything as far as frags are concerned just pm me.

Default Hey I am back

After having a terrible amount of algea growth and sum ickh in my tank I did lots of reserch and now I have zero algea and healthy fish.
I also changed all my tanks. I have the 125g as a salt now but it will need lots of equipment before its ready to be filled with more coral and fish.
I an learning faster now that I desided to step it up.
my fresh water tanks look good but if I had the budget they might all be salt tanks.
I hope you are all having excellent sucsess with your tanks.
Marc

Glad to hear your getting you tanks all straightened out, what did you have to do to get the algae under control?
