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.
Thanks guys I'll keep the offers in mind and see what my better half has to say about it... my helpfulness is hindered by my 3yr old daughter who is basically glued to me at all times LOL so it might just end up being easier to hire out for the whole job... maybe going with something like Home...
Lowes/Home Depot should have it (although I've heard they often don't know what it's called so you'll want to look for yourself, near the ceiling lighting).
Not sure how it affects light, I actually need to get some myself (I have a thin piece of acrylic from a poster frame over my tank right...
Most tank stand are just that cheap pressed board stuff it seems, maybe Ikea would have something in a good size for a good price that would work for you... you could always beef it up inside with additional wood/supports? Your issue will likely be height with one of those things though, they...
Most of the area LFS's can order it for you but as an FYI Oceanic stands new are usually really over priced, if cost isn't a concern though I think they look really nice and I like the height. You could also see if anyone here or on RC has one used to sell. I got my 30g oceanic tank and stand...
LOL believe me I've thought of it, I don't think he'll go for it though... he's already starting to dread his short visits because I always have projects for him to do... at our last house I had him tile a room, put up paneling in the basement, build that dog run etc not much of a vacation for...
6 line!!! Both of my tanks were getting over run with copodes (as in they were all over my zoas keeping them closed etc) added a 6 line to each tank and problem solved, you can't even find a pod unless you're searching.
15% off with DODGE
They still have the IO salts on sale and some other stuff too and shipping is usually pretty good (no surcharges)
Just an FYI if anyone shops there :)
Yeah I'd love to DIY however I'm not physically able to do it myself and w/o "bashing" anyone ;) let's just say I'm the only one in the house who thinks we should build our own. My Dad actually helped me put up a small picket dog run in our last house on a visit but since he's in CA and we're...
I'm going out of town for a week myself leaving this Friday... I have a non fish keeping friend coming in every other day to take care of my cats and to drop dry food into the tanks (I like to use the weekly pill containers you can get at any pharmacy since each compartment is labeled and...
Aww ::blushing:: thanks guys, you just made my morning. None of my friends/family know anything about sw tanks so if they see it they just check out the fish and usually say "are those plants (ie corals) alive?" ::) The tank needs some work right now, way to much stuff down on the sand and I...
I know it's a awful photo, just found it on my digital and realized the frag I recently lost was in the photo, I really liked them... no idea what they are called and the color was understated so maybe they don't even have a name. It's the circled ones that I'd like to know so I could try and...
I need to try some different things with our junky old camera to get some better shots but I wanted to post something here. I'll get around to posting the start to the tank later when I find the photos of the couple mods etc.
Here is my 24g aquapod, it's hard to tell in the photo but the rocks...
I don't know about you guys but many of my rocks are balanced just so, critters can crawl on them but if I was to push with enough force to drill something... mounting a frag would be the least of my worries.
Not sure about locally but www.sealifeflorida.com (Ken) always has them for a good price and his shipping can't be beat, he'll send them reduced rate (priority) I've never had any problems going that route.
makes sense, of course it's also pretty upsetting if that's the case since I replace the one in the fridge every 3 months (6 is recommended) and the one in the Pur pitcher every few months as well (it has an indicator on it but I tend to ignore that and change more often) neither are more then 2...
