Hey Chaoscat - Sorry to hear you are moving, it was good catching up with you at meetings up north here. Let us know if you ever move towards LED lighting as you envisioned someday. Hats off to you for taking the large step needed to find a better place for work. I have been in a rut myself...

I have the same burning urge...Sadly, I have the room, just not the time! Way too busy at work over the next 30 days!

Nice - I have always liked these. Weird looking and hardy to boot! About how big is this?

Can anyone share the tool they feel is effective for charting testing, water changes etc? (or at least a link to where they are available) I designed one in excel a couple years ago, but I know there are better ones out there and didn't want to spend a lot time recreating another. Thanks!

Hi Erna - So sorry to hear about your sweetheart's struggles. I will say a prayer for your family this evening. Being close by at work, let me know if there is anything I can do to help in any way. Bob

'Just about everyone from the Carribean has had it'. It's sounds a lot more common then 50,000 cases. It's a little like Lyme Disease, except for the vomiting and is probably just as badly under reported as they mentioned.

Hey - that's Bill working on my SUV! LOL It is scary isn't it. He should have a shop uniform on for the free 'plug' (no bun intended!)

Thanks Phil! - Very timely response! I read your note before lunch and decided not to take the 45 emergency ride commute ride. All was fine, much to my releif. Thanks Wendy - My bioload is currently very light for a 75g/40g sump system. 5 chromis, Royal Gramma and a tiny Ocellaris clown. I did...

Hi all - I was doing some late night plumbing and screwed up a bulkhead seal. The result is I had to shut down my sump and return line to the display. In the mad scramble to stop the leak and insure the heaters were okay and all, I forgot to provide aeration but pointing my powerhead to the...

Wow - looks like that was one heck of a party! (with musical entertainment included! ;D) Sorry I couldn't visit as I planned Phyl and John. I worked WAY too many hours this week and had pick up slack and watch the kids while battling exhaustion.

LOL Bill. I have to admit I will have serious inclinations about putting some more volume in my home when the day comes that I visit Sandee's place. (and I'm sure John and Phyl's this weekend!) By the way Sandee, I just checked out your site for the first time. Very cool...I see you have...

Thanks all. Very helpful! It is <bleeping> cool to watch them eat. If I do feed it at all, it will very sparingly with mysis or small krill as I wouldn't want to grow in spurts. Overall, I do have a very light load of nutrient sources, but I was thinking about getting some BIGGER fish soon. It...

For those familiars with MRC skimmers, which external pump would you use for an MRC1? My mag12 died last night after a year. It was very hot when I touched it in the a.m.. I like to get some opinions woulod help immensely. I will probably go with a different make with more capacity. I recall...

Thanks guys. My system is about 18 mos. old. My flow is mostly moderate. I use 210 watts of T5s on a 75g. My params would ok last time I checked. 8.1ph, 400Ca, 8.5alk, .05phos., undetectale nitrates I will try silversides next. I was releived to see he took a small peice of shrimp (fr. Rod's...

What does everyone feed their RBTAs? I adopted one a couple weeks ago and was told he was eating whole dried shrimp, but he only takes it for a few minutes and then releases it. I don't feel like buying things like silversides if i doesn't take them Thx

Hey Ralph/Dan - Inspiring technique! I have been thinking (for far too long) about how I could install in partial baffle over one that installed without teeth to help screen out macroagae and etc. I didn't feel like shutting the sump down for too long. This may just work. Thanks!

Rarena - That timer from Aquacave looks like a good product. How long have you been using it? I like their shipping arrangement as well. I am so annoyed when places hammer us with $10-$15 on less then a 1lb box, regardless if you are buying $10 or $200 worth of stuff.

Wow!... although I would hope an attorney would be able to secure protection based on the late filing.

Thanks Bruce. I will add a valve. Will the back pressure on the aqualifter cause any issues? (if this is your RO supply method) If not, these pumps are pretty amazing for the $10 price. That makes me nervous in and of itself! I can add one other thing. Once I slowed myself down for a change and...
