  1. In need of some algae help!

    Earlier in the week I posted a request for an algae ID and i'm reaching out again for more help. I have been siphoning out algae for the last two weeks and it seems that although my problem has gotten better, it always seems to return just as quickly.

  4. 150 Gallon "Tankless" Build

    Here are some pics of my ongoing 150 gallon LeeMar tank build. That is if LeeMar doesn't damage my tank again. It will be lit by a ATI Sunpower 5' 6 bulb T5 light.

    I TIG welded the stand together using 1/8" thick 1-1/2" square tubing which was then powder coated. It has a removable raceway box to run the wires in, in the off chance that I later want to change up the design underneath for more space.
