Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I'd suggest (only if the fixture isn't under warranty) opening the fixture and seeing what brand ballast is in there also check to see if there is a fuse on the ballast (some do) and it could be something as simple as just changing a fuse
Phyl,
Yes TFJ carries them and I believe they are in stock.
Reefernets,
If you got a Advance ballast it's the same one that Sunlight Supply Tek lights use in their fixtures and retros.
Still wounld't fit, remember I have a 80gal bow which is the same footprint ;) the most you'd be able to fit would be 4X54 and maybe 1X24 unless by some strange chance your able to find the Tek 1 reflectors then you might be able to fit a 39w
A Tek light would be better but with a 6X54 he'd need the fixture then he could use the legs or hang it, The current 6X54 fixture he would have to hang cause the legs that support the light are on the corners of the fixture so they wouldn't rest on the rim in the front of the tank, the Tek ready...
The srew cap, fill the pipe with water put the cap back on and then it will prime it's self.
Genx uses the least energy out of all of them and is pretty quiet.
the only problem your going to have with the 72 gallon bow is it's narrow at the sides, the most you'll be able to fit is a 6X54 fixture and you will still have some overhang on the sides, if you use a canopy the most you can fit would be 4X54. The 8X54 you will have a lot of overhang and will...
Go with a genx 40 or 50 lower wattage than other pumps and has a high head rateing. if your sump isn't drilled you can use it over the rim method. I have mine plumbed that way and been using it over a year with no problems, it's also plumbed from the basement to the 1st floor this way, which is...
Dave it might be a tight fit getting it into the house ;D, How big is the 15' snake? would I be able to carry it?
The home depot by me only rents power augers not the hand use ones which is all I need.
The toilet overflowed so did the usual plunger thing no luck, I have a 4' auger and after using it I got the toilet to flush but extremely slow with no power behind it, that's how I know whatever is in there (might be the rubber fish that used to be on the tank lid ::) ) was pushed further into...
A auger is for toilets, pulling the toilet is not going to be a option for me hence the need of a 6' or longer auger. I can tell it's past the trap and stuck somewhere in the line, it's about 4.5' from the bottom of the toilet to the 4" main of the house but there is a couple of bends on the 3"...
Anyone have a 6' auger in the Toms River area that I could borrow? one of my cat's knocked something into the bowel and now it's stuck in there somewhere.
If you want to see a tank in person with radiums, I believe Stan (smcooler) still runs them, he has the best tank in the state so even if he doesn't it's worth the trip to see his tank and maybe pick up some frags ;)
If you want blue then a 20k might be more to your liking, radiums are good, XM's are so so. With the 12k you shouldn't see any yellow more of a white/blue
