Mark, I appologize, I'm not familiar with your setup. So I'm going to assume since you're talking about a temperature controller, you don't have a controller for your tank (Apex, Reef Angel, ReefKeeper, etc). That being the case, YOU NEED A TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER. Any heater will...

Your high calc and mag numbers should not be an issue. And, as mentioned, it didn't come from the addition of the rock. What salt are you using? Some salt formulations have high alk, calc and/or mag concentrations. Also, are you dosing anything?

Well I opened up the second Apollo, thinking that I only had maybe 15 LED's to replace. Found that all the blue LEDs (40 of them) were melted. The LEDs would still light, but the lens portions were melted off. Here's the entire board, where you can see the 40 charred LEDs, while the 15...

Time for an update......the LED beads arrived: Installing the new LED's was cake. Used the Noctua NT-H1 thermal compound between the LED and the flat aluminum plate. However, having sufficient thermal compound for between the finned aluminum and flat plate became an issue. I...

Happy Birthday Mike. Enjoy!

Praveen, the words say Hanna Calcium checker, but the picture shows an Alkalinity checker. If it's the Alkalinity checker, I'll take it.

I was out on the porch yesterday evening between 7 and 8 PM, and it was like a World War I dog-fight with so many hummers wanting to come in to feed. I have two feeders out, around the corner from each other, but they know this, and being so territorial, check both feeders before coming in to...

Ed, you're being too hard on yourself. I'm not overly concerned about you being termed a "Gyre Fan Boy," but more concerned about your love life. I've been told that Jen doesn't want any more kids out of fear that you'll insist that the new baby be called Gyre. :o :o :o :wink: Of...

Mark, that looks very nice. Great job!

Wow! A whole lot of true in those words. I'm a soccer referee.....been doing it for 35 years or so. I just had this conversation last weekend with the crew I worked with how, more specifically, the U17-18 and 19 year old boys show very little respect for authority. It has gotten more...

On the Eheim Every Day Feeder I believe the little fan only comes on when the feeder is doing its turning thing. If not, then my fan has stopped working on both of my feeders. Also, if you feed a floating type of food (flakes), you'll want to pick up a feeding ring or simply make one out...

I resurrected this thread because I was just out on my porch carbon dosing when a ruby throated humming bird came in to feed. I've had my feeders out for about two weeks or so and this is the first hummer I've seen this year. So get you feeders out there now! Simple recipe.....1 cup...

After all that closet work with the remote sump! You better be staying in NJ. Best of luck with the move. Give a holler if you need a hand.

Looking great Rob. Keep the pictures coming.

Inflation James.....they are about $18 now. But the pump kit at $2.39.....that's chump change.

+1......

Tom's Aqualifter Rebuild The Tom's Aqualifter that I use for my ATO died today. This pump was purchased in 2007 for the external overflow I was running at the time, so I can't complain. Now I have a back-up Aqualifter, but also have a little rebuild kit. Here's the kit next to the opened...

Juan, looking good......nice hole! Glass-Holes rocks! Dance

Sorry I missed this one. I think this is the first one I've missed. I'll be there next year.

First off, the canopy looks fantastic! Nice job. Color is a personnal choice........but I think the Blue + only T5's is an excellent addition to your LED combination. I have very blue LED's (36 blue / 15 white / 4 red) and still supplimented with two Blue + T5's. I think you'll be happy...
