I'd do like 2 bars of equal length to the T5s which I believe would be like 6 units of the ultra bars which connect together to make up the full bar.

Got a ton of stuff in today for the prize pool, including a killer grand prize item from Hanna. Any guesses on what it could be? I will post the full list later this weekend once I have had a chance to go through everything. Stay tuned!!!

No light needed. Light will only encourage algae to grow. Just a circulation pump of some sort and you'll be good to go

Adding a Rainbow Chalice colony from Mile High Corals to the prize list

AI Nero 7 wave pump added to prize pool from Deep Blue Aquariums

The water itself doesn't carry all that much of the microbiome, I would add in at least a few small pieces of established rock and maybe even a cup of sand if possible. As Mike mentioned hydrospace products, like their PNS Deep Cycle, can help too. (Kenneth, the owner of Hydrospace will be at...

If I didnt already have on that is similar sized, I'd take it. But if no one takes it, I'd take it over to Underwater wonders. A lot easier then making 100+ frags of it

Ya, this would likely be about the hardest tank possible to maintain. Not impossible but would require a ton of work growing and cultivating their food on a constant basis. Nudi are all very specialized feeders and they can not be trained to eat other foods. You have to provide the one thing...
