dendro if you are talking the pinkish/orange. (sun coral).

I'm not really familiar with them but i like em!

Its a Jose casa rainbow milli from cultivated reef. It was tucked in the back and all colored down so I got a good deal on it. Slowly coloring back up. Was worried it'd die for awhile.

Good morning Mike

I wanted to run this idea by you guys:
Switching to sump. I wanna try and ditch HOB filter and go with a sump for a multitude of reasons. However I have 0 idea how sumps work and how I'd set one up. How exactly would I do this? I already have an idea of a Fiji 20 gallon sump. Just make it simple. Im tired of HOB because I seem to not be getting good results etc. As I've matured I've realized that hob was a shortcut as a kid. I wanna keep the Remora though, no point in buying an in sump skimmer.

Sorry no help here I have a AIO. I’m sure someone will jump in and in the meantime you could probably get good information on YouTube.

Good morning Joel! I’d say get some rest but I know that’s not going to happen. Coffee is your friend today and hopefully you’ll get an unusually light day.

They are actually very easy to setup. First off, is your tank drilled for an overflow?

 

[Calmwaters]

Already on my 3rd cup of coffee and my brain is still refusing to cooperate with me...

Im thinking of getting one of these or the corner shelves. I was a space to grow out one or two different frags for a bigger colony, rather than a lot of different ones.
Ive never seen anyone with this one in their tank.Tom, so you like the look of it?

Yes they actually blend in quite well and while they don't contribute anything to your bio-filter other than their surface area they look natural. My Foxface would beat me silly if I took them out.

You can see all three of mine in this shot. They are all on the backwall and for the fish, provide ledges to hide under or cruise over, for the corals mounting points and for the viewers a more natural looking back wall. I am probably going to buy a couple more just to help disguise the back wall.

This one has that type of magnet. They are very small but super strong. The one on the rack itself is inset and sealed also.

Yes the magnets are very small and incredibly strong. I had to switch to carbon fiber tongs to clean the fuge because the magnets kept pulling the tweezer out of my hand.

That’s good preparation for when you get to be my age in thirty years. Brain is always like that and IV coffee won’t make it go away.

Good morning Tom! They look awesome, would you mind posting the site you get them from again?

Sure.

I buy them direct. I was planning to buy a couple more this week or next but between the unscheduled ER visit and the unplanned rock-into-the-windshield of the Porsche. It looks like Black Friday for anything tank related. Too bad, I had a pretty good shopping cart of goodies planned.

Thanks Tom, hold your horses, rock through the windshield? What happened? On a side note, your priorities are backwards, reefing before health, da.
