Starting over with my tank!

I'm starting over with my 29 gallon tank. Hopefully everything goes well!

The tank was looking good... will post pics soon! (O old tank) I've been into freshwater fishtanks all my life and been messing with marine for about 14+/- years. With that being said, sadly enough I still have a lot to learn. I've always been on a strick build budget and i'm looking for advice as I go.

  1. More Lighting and Protein Skimmer Quetions!

    Ok, I have two PC's lights but they are not the 50/50's, two whites on one and two blues on the other. My question is: Would you put the blues in front of the tank or the whites?

    Now protein skimmer question: are you suppose to have any bubbles coming out of the return at all? Also, I still don't have much foam in the cup so I turned it up a little last night, thus creating some bubbles out of the return.

    Thanks for ya help in advance!

  2. Lighting Controls!

    I want to hook up timers to my lighting system. Each light, fans, and moonlight has a seperate wire. I went to Lowes the other day and seen what they have to offer. Is this where y'all get ya timers from or do they have some other place with timers with a little more control? I noticed they had timers with 1,2, and 3 plugs on them but they could not be seperately controlled. Do they make timers that can have multiple plugs with seperate controls?

    Thanks for the help,

    Went to the LFS today to get my new bulb. While I was busy with the owner my wife started looking at the fish. She picked out some beauties.

  5. Lighting!

    Ok, since no question is stupid..heres one... what light is this..I have no name on the lighting itself...the light bulbs have nothing written of importance also that would tell me. The fixture has two off these...blues and whites. Well, that one is a blue and only one of the bulbs went out which means I have to buy a complete set due that they are all-in-one. Please let me know and also let me know if this is a ok setup and if they have retro-fits for it or what. Also, if y'all buy from a online ...
