I said pushing 4000 gph and a trickle filter not in a trickle filter. Your commercial? Ya, a lot of beginners start with cichilids as they are an easy keep. Who do you sell them to? The LFS? Not mine as mine is saltwater only. Your tank is the first "saltwater equipped" tank i've herd of thats not saltwater. Here are the pictures you requested.

Since everyone is talking about aquatic rooms i have one for you guys.... and i do believe that everyone has to start somewhere, so everyone is a begginner at one point...im new to the Saltwater Game now. i've been doing it for about 6months now and i think my tank looks awesome. it has no fish yet but they will be coming soon. but i have been in the Fish game all my life. and i know that no tank, i mean no tank is a showroom tank to start, unless you buy it that way($$$$$$). my aquatics room from left to right is....75G Reef tank, with 20 G hospital tank, then a 75 G turtle tank , and then a 125G FW communtiy tank.

Hey, i brought my puffer home with ich. Hypo-salinity is the best cure. No poisons or chemicals. Hypo is when you drop the salinity below 1.010. I've been keeping it at 1.008. Ich is completely gone after about 10 days and they say leave the salinity low for an extra month to kill every bit of it. Only bad thing is hypo is not reef safe. It kills inverts which is what ich is. Will kill live rock, snails, and all other inverts. I preformed this in a FO tank so it worked. If inverts exist, you probably need a QT but i stand by this method and would almost guarantee it.

May i add, don't attempt lowering the salt this low without a refractometer. Hydrometers are not accurate and salinity much lower than this can cause harm. My refractometer was $30 on ebay and i would recommend that to anybody with saltwater.
