I was wondering if anyone could come help me drill my tenecor acrylic tank in my family room. Here is the problem, I have very little clearance between the wall and the tank, and I am not moving the tank. I dont have a standard overflow to the basement, just a few "u" tubes. Once they lose their...
Wait a second, 90 degrees???? I find that difficult to believe. The only way that is happening is one of your heaters is remaining on. I had that happen to me before. UNPLUG ALL HEATERS and see if it is true. I finally bought a watt tester to see if my heaters were staying on, they were. two of...
By the way, Daniel, if you are using power heads, whatever wattage each powerhead is, it is like having that watt heater on in the tank. so if you have a 28 watt power head going, that is like a 28 watt heater on heating the tank. if you have 4 of them, multiply it. so, maximise your flow with...
The worst thing you can do is put your chiller in the house where the living space is. It is like putting your air conditioner unit indoors. It puts off a lot of heat. I have mine outside, but mine is as big as a central air unit. 2 hp This is the first year without turning it on. But then...
wow, that is a really cool photo, shiningballs. how did you get that fish to stay still. with a point and shoot, there is a brutal delay that doesnt allow me to take a photo lik e that
I have my new pump i bought at manhattan reefs swap. it is really noisy, i did what the directions said, twist it, move it left, right etc. i have it set at pulse, but the vibration sound is loud in my family room. is this normal?

Bruce,
I was checking out Davids unit and I tested his GH. It was way off the scale. It was twice as much as the highest number the scale had. Really. That was pre-water softener. I recall 33. Post-softener was 2. WOW he is not kidding. He has hard water.
Buying another test kit will not change...
Yea, Phyl, i was just going to write to you to see if it was on that. That is where it originated two years ago, my poci colony, after getting some from a friend i thought the algae was cool. I have some others i need to take out of there. It isnt a fast growing algae. Just a tough one to get...
Mike, I have a ford ranger that you may borrow. I have no time to help you move it, but you may borrow the truck. It is an oldie but goodie.
Let me know.
No, this macro algae is not on my cap. Only on my rock. One rock and that had an encrusted pocillipora and zoos. It isn't contagious! Only if it is on your rock, then you cant stop it from growing unless you remove the rock. No worries.
