Ask not what you can do for yourself. Ask what you can do for your Coun... err, uh Club...???

I am just itching to start this - of course nothing can ever be done the easy way. I decided that I need to make a hood to house everything. That could be easy but given that I really like being able to stick my hands in the tank just about every other day just to play with something, spot...

Good call... My pH is usually around 8 at midnight (when I usually check) and I'm trying to get my Alk up to 10. My CaRx was out of commission for about 2 weeks and it dropped everything down. The Rx is a MTC mini-cal. I spoke with Jeff from MTC and he gave me the idea of focusing on Alk. He's...

I've noticed that getting used to a new skimmer (SRO 2000 XP) and getting it set up properly has pushed my salinity down to 1.022. Is that far enough out of whack for me to be concerned? Maybe I’m fooled by the monitor. I use a pinpoint (see below) and 53.0 = 1.026. Mine’s reading 46.0 which...

+1 - I have all 3 - I've used the CA a couple times but it's so finiky it's hard to rely on - look on RC - there are rants that go on for pages. a lot of people say they wish they had found those (rants) before they ordered so read at your own risk... I'm color blind and got sick of asking my...

All in good fun George – no one’s taking it personally (at least speaking for myself) A little intra-sate rivalry is healthy – it keeps us all on our toes. Not sure I'd be yucking it up just yet.... Ok, let’s see - the great Eli started drives on 39 – 0 points 46 – 0 points (3 & out) 33 – 0...

wait, before you lock it up... maybe it was a "lucky" win and came close to going either way but the Giants could have very easily lost the superbowl last year (and there's no way they didn't have luck on their side in the playoffs - the green bay win was more about a tragedy in the packers...

Yeah hawkeye. My eyes played the same trick and I PM'd him all goofy like with offers of frags and such for the "angel". Wishful thinking or the power of suggestion coupled with reading stuff on here WAY too late (when I have 5 minutes of peace and quiet to myself). Needless to say I saw his PM...

Yum ...red snapper!!

+1 - thought the exact same thing....

will you have it against a wall? I'd want access anything that may need to be serviced - the thing that I assume is a check valve on what looks like the return - will you be able to get to that?

Yep. Still have a couple pieces left...

Any time Matt. Wish I had more to offer

Should have asked Dora to help - I see her just chillin' there and I hear she's a fantactic finish carpenter....

Ok, the last post was a little dry so here are some updates with pictures because everyone loves a post with pics (be forewarned though. my camera on my phone SUCKS and this tank does not leave any cash for a better camera...) First, here are the CO2 reactor lines that I replaced showing the...

I just exchanged mine. Maybe they'd fill yours but I think that you'd have to drop it off and leave it. You could probibly just buy one of theres and exchange them as needed.

It’s been a while since my last confession :) so here goes…. I had my first whew moment over the weekend. I was doing the weekend maintenance on Saturday night (the rare occasion where the wife had plans and I could put the kids to bed and have some uninterrupted time) so I did a water...

I need to stop using my phone for typing these long updates - It would be amazing if anyone could understand half of what I wrote. if anyone's following along, Jeff saw my post on RC but there was another guy who had an issue with "his 1st ca reactor" and that guy was close to throwing his...

Dan: +2 on socal for anything atman. also I have my NAC6A offline - as a back up. I forget which pump it has - if it's the "2500" but you're welcome to borrow it for as long as you need - hell if the pumps too small for your skimmer (I think you have a NAC7) just borrow the whole skimmer and run...

Funny thing is Jeff from MTC is so knowledgable and was so anxious to offer help. He was in the phone with me for about 45 minutes and sent me an email to call him the next day b/c he forgot to mention some things. He mentioned that he saw my post in RC and proceeded to explain how the guy was...
