Hi - I will take the USPS. How much do you want for the Koralia2? Also may take the controller, but I need to learn a little about it. If the clamps are still there, I would like them. I'll probably take the socks as well. I will stop by one evening after work. Thx

Good tip there Jeff. I may try to stop there in the morning tomorrow. Maybe if we configure something everyone likes we can ask for them to swing a group buy discount. I should watch what I start, I am so swamped with work each March & April that I wouldn't be able to support it much. I will...

Can anyone refer me to a good type of multi outlet surge suppressor with one, preferable two, timers built in? I am tired of having this cheap single outlet timers rigged up all over the place. I did some digging around on Prem Aquat., Reefgeek, Thatfishplace and Marine Depot but didn't locate a...

Hi- I currently run a refuge with Chaeto aside from my sump. I also had one for two and half years in my prior system. I had one heck of a lot less problems with nuisance algae in my display when I was running Chaeto vs. just having 'not so' live rock in my sump. I bet you will probably have an...

Hi Paul - Good discussion. I am sure other proud members of idiot's anonymous like myself will appreciate it as well. ;D Check this link out below. I have not gone this route yet since I just order all kinds of retro stuff, but I would like to someday. I currently have 4 t5s and two units of...

Hey Mr.X - Fascinating deal there! How long have you been using the fixture. Is there a plexi shield covering them? If there is, is there a fan on top to keep them cool? If not, a concern may be bulb life. Thanks

Cripes! and I was thinking about taking my canopy of my tank for better lighting soon. This makes me think twice! How's this...."As of Feb. 16, 2009, pennies are outlawed in this house. Anyone caught with a penny with have to donate $1 to the salt fund" The leave a big jar at the front door...

A sea urchin (tuxedo is best or pincushion) would probably mow it down as well. I added one about two months ago and it's incredible how much algae it took out. Some say they scrape off a lot of desired coralline algae, though. I don't have enough to notice. In fact, if you are close, you can...

Hey Phil and Pete - I have been in and out of things with back surgery around the corner. I'm glad to see you are staying in with things. You guys have been such a influential and inspiring force at all the events as well as online for me. Bob

Nice looking custom canopy. Pretty cool that it could used as an island as well. This is a very good deal, too bad my back troubles exclude me!

Hi Larry - I may be interested in the light. How old are the bulbs? I will send a pm. Thx

Thank you Eric and Robyn! It was great seeing you Ryan and you guys. We had a great time catching up with everyone and the layout of food was wonderful. In fact, I have never seem Timmy stuff food into his mouth like he did with those stuffed shells! Bob

Thanks Bax - The second one has nice diagrams to go with it! On that second, the one thing that looks like a concern is that if the sump switch sticks then there is no back up and you can still flood the system with RO/DI right? Also, what do they use a maxijet 400 for topping off? That seems...

I am reworking my auto top off since my arrangement that runs through the Precision Marine kalkwasser reactor is refusing to work for me. I am thinking about trying this float valve as a switch to trigger RO/DI supply since it is less expensive. Has anyone had any experience with it...

Good tip...I have to pick me up one of Rich's Reefgadgets! I also saw this one on clearance at Premium Aquatics. I felt like buying one just for the thermometer, although I am not too crazy about it falling into the sand, even with it 'always falling right side up'...

Hey Lefty813 - Where are you at? I would like some as well, if you are north. Thanks

Hey Jeff - Thanks. I'll consider the urchin. I haven't had much luck with coraline growing and what I had faded. There's much to lose there.

I agree in that I would supplemental both components at the same time, although on after the other. It is pretty tedious doing it daily I have a 75g and ended up going back to the stock ESV two part system as my calcium load is fairly light. Go slowly on the Calcium Chloride dosing. I found...

Is anyone familiar with mossy-like slow growing brown algae that is strictly on my live rock. I don't have a camera or I would post a picture. All I know is it does not seem to recede, even with practically zero nutrients. It is slowly encroaching a number of corals which is an eyesore. With...

I send it down the toilet, although it is best to remove macroalgae so as not to create an abundance of it
