    HerbieK Blast from the Past Giving a Shoutout to Any Old Timers

    Heya H, hope alls well, think I still have pics on my phone from your last party. Club has been through some ups and downs, as always, and there’s still a few of the old crew floating and lurking (Mike mnat, Paul RFBF, Bob radiata, Mark V, and a few more). Hope retirement is treating you well...

    Looking for LEDs?

    Thanks for the heads up. Here's a question for the masses before I hit the purchase button. I'm running 2 G6 Radions, which, obviously, have some UV. But, I want a bit more pop, especially at night as the rations die down. Should I go Ice Blue or Blue UV?

    Mwaaahaaahaaaahaaaaa

    They said I was mad! So, in adding a few new sps to the system I, probably much to Bot’s happiness, decided to check parameters on one of the tanks and start to get serious about things. Tank hasn’t been tested in months. Dosing has been - ‘I don’t think I’ve done anything to the tank in...

    Hi

    Welcome aboard! The diatoms thing is the norm. It’ll look terrible for a couple weeks. Use a turkey baster to blow off the rocks and change out your filter material often. I re-scaped a tank about 8 weeks back and I’m just getting out of ugly phase now.

    Covid

    Thanks all. Bit weird. I’m usually the type that gets sick, mildly, for a day or two at most. This is my second time with Covid. Last time I had sniffles for a couple days and was done, while Carla was practically comatose for over a week. This time its opposite. Carla was over it in 2 days...

    Covid

    Picked it up last Wednesday and every morning its felt as if a truck was dragging me 10 miles to start my day. Finally feeling somewhat human again today. Sorry for delayed replies to mails and such, I’ve been mostly dead all week.

    Spotted at Brick Petco…

    I supplied a couple for the stand, but not that one. You can buy them in 8-24 packs on Amazon. Think Carla and I did 12 for business flyers and it was $26 or so. Also have to compliment you guys. The designer you guys use is top notch. Must be one handsome, smart, and witty SOB.

    Discussion on chemicals

    Just a general question on keeping water clean. Wondering what combos everyone uses.

    Discussion on chemicals

    I was planning to set up a reactor, but was curious on what cleaning items might work in unison or nullify each other. Got me to wondering things like... Should I run Phosguard with ferric oxide? If I run carbon and ferric oxide, should I use Chemi-pure? Here's a list of a few things I have...

    Done!

    Ignore the mess in the background… and this is the wrong size table… Custom tablecloth, sign, flyers, prize wheel (painted orange and blue), and monitor (for movie i’m putting together. Think we’ll be a bit better off with this show.
