    Heya Paulie, I can use a handful of those if available. Can head down Barneget way this weekend if available and you're about. May get some kayaking in while down there as well. Lemme know, M

    Proposed Changes to Memberships..... - Please read and vote

    I'm assuming we'd do it quarterly for initial signups? For example, if new member signs up Jan-Mar its $20 Apr - Jun $15 Jul - Sept $10 Oct- Dec $5 Then do a $20 annual renewal on January 2nd for every year following? Also thought - is it possible to do auto renewal fees annually with a card on...

    no power

    Chris, As said, in my 2-3 day power loss with nothing going on in the tank (no pumps, no air stones), there wasn't a single loss. I really think this 'must have flow and power every minute' thing is one of those reefing myths that inspires panic. We black out tanks all the time, we turn on and...

    no power

    We we're in a Jeep, no top, as the storm came in. Got caught in the 80+ mpnh winds avbout 1/4 mile from home. Jeep flooded out, and we we're all soaked like sewer rats. IT was insane! Like a ultra real Disney ride with fear of death :) We did lose power for a while, fortunately I picked up a...

    LOL @ zip codes

    Zip or town I'll be Googling it regardless. True story: I live on the corner of Bradley Ave. Had a guy pull up a couple years back ask me if I knew where Chestnut was. Told him I'd look it up for him, pulled out my phone, typed it in, and realized I lived on the corner of Bradley and Chestnut...

    One of those days...

    So, outside work it is. Here are my clothes after hosing them down. Why? I forgot to release the pressure on our gas can last night and went to fill up the blower 30 minutes ago. Of course the blowback covered me in gasoline head to toe. Now I am doing outside stuff in work shoes... Should...

    One of those days...

    MP40 wet side is on bottom of tank this morning. As I'm recovering it the dry side falls off, and as I had it anchored by the sticky tab so it wouldn't hit the floor, it did an Indiana Jones whip swing straight into the top of the ATO container, at which point the sticky tab gave out and the...

    New Tank - New to the Hobby - I Need Your Input.

    Sand ‘dust’ settling may take a week or so. I use the special grade reef. I put a few pounds in a bucket and stir, drain, rinse, repeat. Ater 10-12 of these heavy rinses I still get clouds on the tank for 24-48 hours Cool handle btw. Influenced by the Greek, the Ender series, or both?

    Time to switch brand

    Never had a problem with the RS kits, In the past few years I migrated to the Hannah systems as, during my degrees, my most hated thing in the world was titration. I refuse to have it part of a hobby. In running Salifert and Red Sea, then comparing to Hannah, its all within the same range, but I...

    Thoughts on this light

    In working as a Photoshop professional for 15 years, I tend to think the advertising image may just be mildly manipulated. Now, I know that those not proficient in the fine computer arts may not be aware, but the size and angle of the lighting unit over the tank is very slightly, but still...
