Finally got my fishtank up on the web! It's mostly streaming, but it's actually just a picture that updates every 5 minutes. I used a Playstation Eye camera, and Ubuntu 12.04 (Linux) coupled with a cron job and webcam. The picture is only taken between 8am and 6pm while the lights are on, so I...

Add on question: If my tank has only been runing for about a week and a half, and PH is 8.0, Ammonia, Nitrite, Nitrate is 0, then how do I know when my nice invisible "bio filter" is up and running? I have live sand and a couple pieces of live rock, just added plenty of dry rock last night. Do...

Well, it seems a bit silly once I took the video and am typing this up, but here is my video of how I hung my AquaUFO's over my 72g tank. Hopefully I'll be filling it up tomorrow! All items were bought from Lowe's so it's nothing special, anyone can do it! Later I could always attach the canopy...

I forgot to do this earlier... I'm a friend of RedDevil's that is new to the saltwater tank world and he's helping me set up a 72g bowfront tank. He's definitely been a great help! I just finished gluing in the last pane of glass to make the sump, and going to work on the plumbing tonight...
