Reef suitability is great! Although, meaty foods will eventually need to be offered, as this fish is a meat eater!

Thanks guys. All worked great!

Is there any way to get rid of this "film" without an overflow? I had an overflow box on my old tank and obviously never had this issue. Now that I have a new tank with bulkheads that are below the surface, the film is here. I haven't seen this stuff since I started a few years ago. How do aquarists without overflow boxes deal with this?

I understood and have just used my old 40g as a sump. I do not have partitions in it. Is this a problem? Also, does anyone know how much water two 1.5 inch bulkheads will let in per hour?

I actually have removed all bio-balls and the old bio-ball area is now a refugium, on both filters. I was thinking of having each filter have its own return pump. So, I would have two overflows down to separate filters and the water would return from two separate return pumps. I never thought about connecting the filters though. How is that done?

I am in the midst of upgrading my tank size from a 40g to a 120g. I have drilled two overflows in the new 120g, but I wanted to know if it was possible to run two trickle filters. My thought was to have one trickle filter for each overflow that was drilled. I have two trickle filters in my house now and both filters are rated for 75g and I was hoping to consolidate. Is this possible, or a rookie mistake?

That steal wool won't do any damage to the inside of my glass tank, while in between my magnets?

That's absolutely great information. Thanks a lot.

I understand being for LED's for the reasons of heat output, power usage, bulb temperature, etc. etc. But, does the intensity of the LED light truly compare to the intensity of halides or T-5's? I'm too new to this hobby and I'm having trouble fully understanding this question. Ps: Does this fixture need no hood for directing light? All of these questions may seem novice, but I'm a physicist first and a hobbyist second!
