First off my strongest recommendation is if the tank is drillable (not tempered glass), I'd drill it in a heart beat. First tank wasn't drilled, and after the second flood that snap-crackle-popped right on the powerstrip, I was convinced I'd never have another tank that wasn't drilled. That...

The "standard" stand height is 30 - 32 inches....way too short for me....for two reasons. I didn't want to have to bend down to look at my tank and I wanted to be able to get my skimmer out of the sump. I actually put together a cardboard cutout to make sure I could do this. I thought I...

Someone needs to scoop these up....they are the best clips because they hold a sheet of algae perfectly that has been folded twice. In addition, when the white plastic hinge pieces break, a short section of 1/2 CPVC with a slit cut makes a better hinge piece than the original piece of...

I started with IceCap 660 and 430 ballasts running T5's. A 660 will run up to four bulbs....T5's or T8's. Make sure the wiring is correct:

And I forgot to mention, they also threw in two very fine looking stickers that you'd be able to display anywhere, showing your love for real pork roll! :cool:

With nothing better to do on Friday the 13th, the wife and I made a trip to Mecca…..that is, The PorkRoll Store in Allentown, NJ. As you can see from the picture, we had to fight the crowds getting into the store. Similar to Mike’s Cyber Symposium, it also appears Antifa was about ready to...

Why not do it passively with a siphon? Here's the siphon I use:

Water jug pump: Not bad for 7 bucks! :cool:

Actually vodka gives you a bigger carbon bang for the buck.....so it's actually less expensive. Anyway, I do a combination of vodka and vinegar. It is the DIY version of NOPOX determined by a professor and his grad students. I mix 500 mls vinegar (5%), 375 mls vodka (80 proof), and 125 mls...

Gone.

If you can't find a home, I am giving away a 55 with stand. For the short term, that would work. 55 Gallon Tank with Metal Stand

@Rich H , you're number 2 on the list.....I received a PM from number 1. I'll let you know.

FREE - Nano Arctica Titanium Chiller, 1/20 horsepower (model DBI-038). This was originally included on the JBJ28 that came with HQI lights. I immediately changed the lighting to LEDs and never used this chiller. Here are the specs on the chiller. · Model: Nano Arctica DBI-038 · Horsepower...

I was curious about Johnston Home brand pork roll and searched to find out it's over 100 year's old and a New Jersey product. It is made and sold by The Pork Roll Store in Allentown, NJ. Like Chris, I haven't had one in years, but now I'm curious. Road trip!

For those that need to know...you might be surprised! : And now you might be saying, if you live north of the Raritan, "I'll have a Johnston Ham, egg and cheese sandwich." :cool:

Calm down…...here’s the truth. And Chris, you must be talking about the Sayreville Bridge....that bridge that goes from Sayreville to who-knows-where. :oo: Taylor created Pork Roll in…..who cares what year. Taylor is the company/brand name. Other companies now make Pork Roll. So if you...

Here are your stand plans...and suggest 3/4 plywood top and skin with whatever floats your boat. All 2x4's with no center brace needed. This was designed by an engineer (Rocketengineer), so it will hold a ton a weight....way over engineered. And here is what my stand frame looked...

Hey Amado, I know you're over in North Edison and I just rec'd this alert on my phone: EDISON TWP: Boil water advisory update: the advisory is for NJ American Water customers in North Edison only. Please contact NJAW for any questions. Don't know what it means for your tanks.... I'll also...

It's glass.

Sweetening the deal even more....artificial reefs for your QT/Hospital tank. If you take the 20 gallon tank/stand, you also get the two pipe reef. If you take the 55 gallon tank/stand, you also get the three pipe reef. Now, if you take both tanks, you get both reef pieces. :cool: These...
