From Eheim's site, that pump with 1 meter of head produces about 40 l/min which is only 634 gph.
l/min * 15.852 = gph

Whats strange is, earlier in the day I moved one of the Loclines for my CL because my Blue Jaw kept getting himself blasted against a rock. This Locline was just above the RBTA and I knew he was moving after that. He must have tucked himself between the two rocks that were right behind him. So I...
Well I woke up this morning and low and behold the RBTA was out in front in full bloom. :) So at this point I have no idea what got sucked through the CL and no idea what the debris in the water was from. But all organisms are accounted for. At least the ones I know of.
Any idea what a RBTA sucked through a Dart pump sounds like? :'( Well the whole family does. Scared the bajeebeez out of my Blue Jaw. He leaped right out of the water. Thank goodness I have a canopy. Knew I should have changed those screens on the CL to something finer. My clowns are lost now...
Best I can find is in Opera click View->Encoding and see if there is a "iso-8859-1". That should set the proper encoding for NJREEFERS. It appears opera converts all pages to unicode first then attempts to determine the proper encoding for the page.
Just looked at the page source and the code is using xhtml but there is no xml declaration. This is what is confusing Opera. So you may need to set a specific MIME type for this. Not sure what to set in Opera as I don't use it. But I will look around and see what I can find.
I think they use the 1-Wire bus for the interconnect from Dallas Semiconductors and X10 over the power lines, so that being the case you should be able to go up to 30 meters with standard phone cable and much much further with shielded cat5 or so. So 15 feet should be no problem.
Was past there over the weekend...... Still have a cleaning company there and a sign on the front door about getting on their mailing list to be notified of the reopening.
I gave up on internally threaded bulkheads a long time ago. Pipe thread needs to be tapered in order to seal proberly, bulkheads are not, internally or externally. You can try teflon based pipe dope, but i found it to be hit or miss. If you tighten to much, you risk cracking the bulkhead. I had...
Phyl:
There will still be PO4 bound in the plastic. But I wouldnt worry if you noticed that the algae stopped growing. This would indicate that the PO4 is sufficiently bound to no longer leech or be available to the algae.

The metallizing used in the eggcrate is typically vacuum...
Re: Propagation Tank Setup Help.
OK, an update on this so far.
After a week of quite a few samples soaking in different solutions and a few samples for control in tank water, it appears that the styrene louver really isn't leeching much PO4. After the first 24hrs there was a very slight...
Re: Propagation Tank Setup Help.
The answer to all the above questions is: Yes, the eggcrate from Lowes and Home Depot ARE definitely leeching PO4 as well as some phenyl. I bought samples from both stores and gave them to the lab. I will have to go back and get the manufactures names to post...
Re: Propagation Tank Setup Help.
Thanks Phyl for changing that.
It appears that vinegar is bringing the phosphates into solution as well as some phenyl, however because these are impregnated within the styrene prior to molding it is taking longer that expected to get desired results. The...
