ILC is getting 200 clams in today/tomorrow. I'd go cherry pick from there!
I had my numbers wrong. It will be 30 boxes of corals in addition to the 200 clams! WOW! :o
I think a quick salt dip is a good idea, especially if the rock is coming from Florida.
NJRC just did a LR Group Buy (3.50/# for premium rock) so a bunch of us are curing now. We may dip ours before we put it into our tank. I'm not anxious to add any more "unwanteds" to my tank. Being able to...
Last day to order for the PremiumAquatics Group by (15% discount) and the Cyanoacrylate (superglue gel, but cheaper) is tomorrow. If you don't have your orders in yet, now's the time! Once totals are posted, payments are due by Saturday.
For PremiumAquatics please use the following code in your...
The videos must have fallen off of my server. I'll dig them up and put them back tomorrow. Here's the thread they were in: http://www.njreefers.org/forums/index.php/topic,460.msg2962.html#msg2962
Yup. That's what you need to do. There's a video of Sharks doing that around somewhere and some pics of RichT too in another spot. Just cut the rock side down, not the flesh side. If the saw doesn't make it through the flesh use a chisel and then a blade to cut the flesh.
If you still haven't...
When I cut them I use a dremel from the under side and cut through to the top. Mine weren't encrusted on rock though. It will either have to be chipped from the rock, or dremeled through the top and a chisel used to break the rock. If you have a wet saw you could use that to cut through the rock...
Oh, that drain line looks like it goes into the frag tank. What's your thinking on having the frag tank on a second pump? I wonder if there's a potential downside to the system using 2 pumps (other than the obvious cost of electricity)...
Anyone have any thoughts on feeding the skimmer off of...
Personally, I take abysmal top down shots. After having to use a "top down" approach to photography for over a year now we're looking to replace the stock tank with an official frag tank that you can see through.
If all you need upstairs is 600g (1 overflow) then theoretically that pump will be enough... depending on the number of Ts and angles actually needed for implementation. If you have the 18 already then you're not losing anything by trying.
I don't know how I feel about the "main" display...
Welcome back! Sounds like a great plan to build on your parents lot (though I couldn't be that close to my ILs, lol). I love the floor drain idea (but the tank should be a 180, a 120 just isn't long enough, says the owner of said 120 :) ). You'll find lots of folks willing to help around here...
Oh my! I can't believe how brave(?) you were to have pulled those explosives out of the fire. Good luck getting it all resolved. Glad to hear that everyone is alright and that the fire was stopped before it could take the house with it.
And do tell? What, outside in the cold of night, caused a...
