I would like to buy one from someone to start feasting on this lovely crop of hair algae I have been farming. (or) if someone knows they are going by Aquatic Obsessions before the meeting, would you be able to pick one up for me? (if avail) Thx

Mike - I'm interested to see if Matt has more info. on how long they work as well. I did make it through a 10 hour outage once with two of those $10.00 battery operated pumps. I think they last about that long on two D batteries and will take care of the oxygen supply and provide some very...

Thanks everyone. So many bleeping decisions to make, especially when the budget is stretched thin! I will put some more research into it. Seeing that the cost will be $100 with shipping, it is not much of a stretch to go with the sea swirl. I also want to think down the road when I upgrade to...

Anybody have an opinions they could share on this new product?I'm preparing to finally change over my plumbing to a new sump and skimmer and got an email from Something Fishy that this SQWD product is out (see the write up below). I used the 3/4" version for a couple years and it worked okay. (I...

I am interested to learn as well. If you do have to resort to order online, be sure to have a look at SAVKO.COM. They are an excellent source for all PVC and I haven't seen better pricing, although shipping runs $7-10 minimum, so try to order in quantity I noticed they now have braided clear...

@#$%!! and we were just talking about your situation with being able to keep triggers at a recent meeting. Sorry to hear that. What a crappy feeling. Fyi...on a previous tank, I had placed a plastic coated screen over the uncovered section of my tank, which solved the riddle for me. I forget...

Really...phosphates in RO/DI water?? This surprises me. Nothing is easy around here, huh? I recall have a discussion with the researcher/owner of AquaFx systems and I believe she felt you should never (or rarely) see phosphates coming through, unless you are very overdue on the replacements. I...

Hey Eric! - Interesting. I did a few dives in the Bahama but didn't see any.I believe they have been labeled as rare to see from my reading around five years ago. I have seen them in the Phillipines along a massive wall. Those photos make me want to go back to Atlantis. I sure don't remember...

Gotcha - thanks Rich. I will probably add the ATO.com tomorrow, if it's not too late.

From everything I've read, I cringe when I hear of anything more then one in any tank. I must say I don't have firsthand knowledge, but I know they are feisty buggers...I guess I would I wonder how big are you willing to go?! Billy98 might be able to assist. I believe I counted four in his tank...

Forgot to include the link to the AWI page with the ATO description (see the bottom) http://www.airwaterice.com/product/1TYPHOON/Typhoon_5_stage_RODI_Reefkeeper_75_GPD.html

Hi everyone - I was about to add a double switch auto top off set up to my order in the Kalk reactor group buy when I noticed that the typhoon 5 stage I just recently has a single switch and auto shut off valve. As someone who has never had a ATO working yet, I could use some advice. Would I be...

Thanks for having me over Billy. Nice place and loved your set-ups. It was great to meet many of you from the southern parts. Let me know when the scuba tours start, I already have my mask and fins in my trunk! :D

I have been pricing up T5 systems for a few months (sadly enough, didn't buy one yet) I found that Prem Aquatics had the best pricing on a 300w Nova Pro Extrem. set up, even before the group buy discount and savings on shipping. I think we are there is another GB planned for April/May I say if...

Bingo! Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks guys. I will probably plumb the drain with 1.25" versus 1". I do have a bunch of 1" flexi. pvc which I might use since it greatly reduces (more like eliminates) the cornering. Does this sound reasonable? I hope to have my new sump and equipment up and...

Thanks Guys - that's inspiring info.! Now it's time to keep my eyes out for one of these guys. I do have an ELbei in my tank that I adopted, but he might have to be exchanged.

Anyone have any experience with or heard anything on the Japanese Swallowtail Angelfish? I have an affinity for angels, but know that many don't coexist with corals well. They say they are reefsafe and docile. I see one site sells a medium one for $33.00...

Hi - So I built two benches to hold my custom sump and MRC skimmer and was about to start plumbing them through my wall when I found myself concerned over the minimal pitch. Over 4 feet, I have a three inch drop and then after a 90deg turn I have a level run for 2.5 feet before draining into my...

Excellent - thanks John. Can I ask, what were/are you guys using to split the line these two?

Can anyone refer me to a good method to loop the return line(s) over the tank and back into the tank? Pix would help and probably be easier. (or a link to a supplier if possible) It would be great to retain any flow I can from the mag 9.5 pump. I wonder if anyone uses what I heard someone...
