So I’m finally convinced that my MRC Skimmer is female. At first I would have thought male, being able to single task only. However, while growing up in the 50’s and 60’s, my dad was convinced that his cars were females, and gave them appropriate names. I can now understand his logic in coming...

I’m going to do the homemade Calc, Alk and Mag recipes that are outlined by Dr. Randy Holmes-Farley: http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-02/rhf/index.php We’ve discussed this before but I can’t find were we talked about sourcing MagFlakes and Dowflake. I can’t find either one. I’ve checked my...

I’m sitting here next to the tank perusing the NJRC forums, to look up and see a recent addition, a Starry Blenny, (my wife has already named it, Jack Blenny...she does these kind of things), resting in its new home...a Koralia powerhead.  The powerhead is off right now because it is on a timer...

OK, this is not a “rocket science” DIY…actually a very simple solution to a potential problem.  I still felt it had some merit and that’s why I’m posting. I run an MRC 2 skimmer that, on occasion, starts to puke out volumes of water into the collection cup that drains into the skimmate...

I need someone to tell me I’m blowing smoke when it comes to an idea of assembling an LED light unit with off-the-shelf bulbs.  This thought is based on saving money on the monthly electrical bill.  I should preface this by stating that I know everything about nothing. When at Sam’s Club, I...

I suffer from “Tim the Toolman Taylor” syndrome and therefore need to add a second injector to the old MRC skimmer….need more power! I know this is a shot in the dark, but does anyone have an MRC injector they would be willing to sell? I’m in Sayreville, but willing to make this into a road trip.

It looks like I’ll be taking over the testing of water on the old tank. The one problem is that; 1. I’ve never done it before, and 2. The instructions for the tests kits have long been pitched. Not a problem with all the tests except Calcium and Kh. So what I need are the conversions of drops to...

Have a five foot tank (actually 59 inches) and will be putting six, 4 foot T5 bulbs over the tank.  Four of the bulbs will be powered by an Icecap 660, and two by an Icecap 440.  Two questions. 1.  What bulb configuration should I use? 2.  What two bulbs (location amounst the six) should be...

Anyone interested in flipping guppies to saltwater or want a nice little feeder fish. I have too many juvinile / baby fancy tail guppies that need to go.
