    Happy 50th Birthday PGordemer!

    Congrats on the new grandchild! How fun that you share a birthday! Sierra & John's mom JUST missed sharing a bday. They're a day apart. Sounds like a great weekend camping. Glad it was such a good time!

    120 vs 125 -

    125 is a terrible dimension for tank due to the lack of depth. They are too tall for their depth and it makes them hard to scape. I'd do either a 120 or a 180 (the perfect tank size, IMHO).

    input on automatic water replenishment

    We use the topoff equipment from www.autotopoff.com and are very happy with it. We have the double float switch and solonoid valve from them. Works flawlessly.

    144 Oceanic 1/2 circle

    Looks great in the pictures, for a 1/2 circle. I thought there would have been more distortion, given the shape. The rockscape and animals look great in there. Nice job! Enjoy it!

    Zooanthid Toxin rash Ouch-advise!

    Oh if you mix vinegar and kosher salt it dries up poison ivy really fast. Maybe that combo would help for the paly sting too. John's gotten it in his eyes a couple of times (don't take out contacts after working with palys even if the sting doesn't bother your skin). The first time he though...

    Online Suppliers - Experiences

    TFJ has closed their "doors" so to speak. They pulled the site down as well. Shame really. They've been a long time supporter of the club.

    Online Suppliers - Experiences

    Good point made by HarlequinReef. If we don't support our local stores now when it is soooo critical we will not have them later. There are some great area sponsors and local store that I would hate to lose over a few dollars and a really bad economy. Check with your LFS. If they don't carry the...

    Ecoaqualizer

    Actually, that technology is used in the water/water treatment industry quite frequently. I had a good conversation a year or so ago with Bax (who's in that industry) and he says it actually could do what it is touted to do. Interesting concept. David, FWIW, John would be far more inclined to...
