    jpelzer's 240 in-wall reef

    Yup, lobo... Sold as 'crazy rainbow wellsophyllia' but we all know what science says! Here's a video of my magnetic stirrer going to town during a coral dip: http://youtu.be/UTXXJ0ICvfw

    jpelzer's 240 in-wall reef

    Added a cool wellsie to the tank yesterday, figured I'd post it here where folks can appreciate. People at work are more like "is that a plant?" They just don't know!

    New Ro/DI Unit

    If you do that there's no point to having the membrane. Best use for waste water is for clothes washing or garden watering... Just need a place to store it.

    The 210 tank build

    I have a friend with a similar tank, he's been looking for a good cover solution that he can leave on. Right now he removes it when he's home...

    That's great! Did you work out a cover solution?

    Brand new fish store in northern NJ! Sea Level Aquarium, coming soon!

    I checked it out on Saturday. They were apologetic for the low stock levels, but I think they're starting slow, which is a good thing. They're planning to devote the center of the store to freshwater, which is disappointing to me, but maybe there's a need for boring old freshwater stores too. I...

    Merry Christmas to me!! A nuked tank!!

    That sucks. Very sorry to hear about your loss. Q42012 was not good to us NJ Reefers. Q12013 is projected to kick *** though! Good luck with the 180!

    Temp swing

    I used to be able to force my BTA to split by bringing the temp down then back up (power outage would reset the clock on my old aqua controller to a different season, then I'd set it back). No real harm done. Good luck!

    "Bomb-Making Ingredients Found in Student's Home"

    Didn't sound like he had a bomb. Parts for a bomb. ie some black powder, a pipe and a 9v battery. Maybe it was more sinister, but based on that article it doesn't sound that way. Maybe I'm a weirdo, but my friends and I built all sorts of things that burnt or exploded, both intentionally and...

    It's not Bubble Algae but what is it?

    Hopefully I'm not coming off preachy... The terror I had with dinos is still fresh in my mind, so I'm very sympathetic. Right now Randy Holmes-Farley is recommending against peroxide (not because it can't work, just that there isn't yet scientific evidence that it does) and recommending the...

    It's not Bubble Algae but what is it?

    I recently fought dinos and won... Mostly by no lighting for several days. Control your pH. Coral will handle that, dinos die. I'm haven't tried hydrogen peroxide. It gets suggested as a cure for so many things, it's either magic-awesome or a placebo. I don't understand why it would selectively...

    Quick PVC cement?

    I've waited 10 minutes with no ill effects. The smaller your water volume, the longer I'd wait.

    Apex question

    A friend of mine did, using an Apple Airport Express. It worked fine, though he isn't that tech savvy so he had trouble keeping it running after power outages, etc. he ended up hard-wiring through a wall.
