    Light for 40G, 24" high tank [6X 39W T5HO or 250W MH + 4X 39W T5HO]

    I think you would be ok with the 250 and actinic t5's. You might want to add a fan though.

    Overflow teeth broke

    You can use multipurpose pvc glue, gorilla glue(also their superglue is good with plastic some types aren't), or two part epoxy and place a small piece of plastic on the back to reinforce it

    Landload ripping up plaster walls

    yeah I was thinking about that too. She is now telling saying "oh well they are only going to do one room at a time and they will clean up when when they are done so it won't be a problem" The walls are old horsehair plaster, so I can't even imagine whats in the wall. I am just going to tell her...

    does salt expire

    It seems like you are getting worked up for no reason. It will be fine and you will probably go through that whole bucket within a month after setting up your tank anyhow. Some of the more expensive salts are nice because they keep the trace mineral levels where they need to be, they don't leech...

    Anyone work/volunteer at the Camden aquarium?

    I was thinking of volunteering since I am close to the aquarium. I think it would probably make me want a bigger tank, but everything tends to do that to me anyhow. I haven't done the scuba cert yet. My wife and I are going to both do that once she is back to normal (shoulder surgery) and...

    Landload ripping up plaster walls

    No, the house I am moving into is still getting renovated. I don't want to move the tank twice in one month. I was going to move the tank on the 16th of May. So far my best option is to move it into the kitchen however I am worried about cleaning products being used around it.

    Landload ripping up plaster walls

    My lease ends in a month and a half an my landlord decided they want to rip out all of the duct work and replace it. The walls are all old horsehair plaster walls. So as you can guess I am very happy. They won't wait until I leave, so I am going to have to start moving stuff now into storage so...

    Custom tank costs?

    I think it is probably 1/2 as well. I know he lays a strip of glass around the inside base which double seals the tank, so I don't think I will have to worry about it splitting apart. I will probably start at $400 and see what he says. Thanks guys.

    Custom tank costs?

    Ok, well he has helped me out a lot with free fish treatment products and I have gotten at least a few hours of free advice from him so I was thinking $600 would be fair. I am going to offer lower since it can't hurt to ask.

    Custom tank costs?

    I don't think he needs to cut his losses. He has the tank just sitting in his warehouse. $250-300 seems really low compared to what I thought. What would a typical price for something like that run?

    Custom tank costs?

    In talking with one of my customers who builds tanks for a living, he has a 120ish gallon tank that a customer bailed out on. He said it is at least 48"Wx20"Dx20"T made of 1/2 or 3/4 glass. The tank is encased in plywood and I didn't want to bother him to dig up his paperwork for it. It was not...
