  1. My 300

    Here is the start of my 300. I closed a room in my house and made a office with my tank being viewable on both sides. It is starfire on the 2 viewing panels. My sump and fuge are in my garage. Still want to change my sump out one day for a nice custom one but here is my progress so far. My tank has already been up for 3 years. Hopefully next year I will get the office side done and my new sump.

  2. Opinons on skimmer

    Hi everyone. I have had a 55 gallon tank set up for about nine months now and am looking for advise on what type of skimmer to buy.

  5. Purchased a New Skimmer - Which Skimmer to put on which system?

    Today I found a good deal on an ATI Bubble Master 300, so I decided to purchase it. Getting the second skimmer purchased was one of the major roadblocks in progressing with my 245G/180G and Breeding Setup build. I now have a skimmer for both the dual in-wall tanks and the breeding set up. Both systems will hold about 500 G of water each. I have the above mentioned ATI and an ASM G6. Anyone have any suggestions as to which system would get which skimmer? Thanks for your input.
