Thanks for the heads up Matt. I just purchased 2 Phoenix 250de bulbs from them. They had free shipping on all metal halide bulbs plus I got the 10% off and they do not charge tax. I got them for $53 a piece! Not bad right? I was expecting to pay much more than that Taz

Thanks for the replies guys. I really thought I'd get more responses though! Where is everybody? Anyway My RO/DI water is measuring 0 TDS. Should I be testing it for anything else? I have been storing my RO water in a brand new, clean 100 gallon rubbermaid stock tank that I will SOMEDAY finish...

OK, I have read that cyano will go away on its own in time (with the right water conditions of course)or I can manually go in and suck it out. I have used chemi-clean in the past and it works great, but I do not want to use chemicals any more if I don't have to. I have had no time lately and he...

I've been trying to change a couple of settings, but still the same. I just think it is so odd that I haven't had a problem all that time and now I do without changing any settings. Phyl you may be onto something Microsoft did an auto update just recently and I believe this started around the...

Read this ebay ad, and look at what price this auction actually ended with.http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130144061675&ru=http%

For the past couple of days everytime I do something else on my computer and then come back to NJRC the homepage makes me log in. I am using the same bookmark that I have been using since we switched to the new homepage and have never had to re-login unless I cleaned the cookies on my computer...

Thanks for the reply Merv, that is what I thought. I think it would be cool to form a flat plate across the water, but I will be afraid of shadowing. The thing is already 9" across and almost 6"tall in the shape of a bowl with many scrolling petals making up the shape. It is so cool remembering...

Thanks for the replies guys. John, The teeth on my overflows do not keep the critters back. LOL They just climb right over. When the tank had the original AGA overflows, the snails, crabs and such had to stay in The overflow chamber and never made it into the basement because of the float that...

A couple of months ago I changed my overflows to the mega-flows and now I find many snails and hermits and even one of my pepermints in my sump. Right now I am still using my old 30 gal acrylic sump and have a sponge over the 3/4"bulkhead so that nothing makes it into the pump, but when I finish...

I have a monti cap in my tank that has grown like mad. I bought it from a fellow reefer as a 2" frag and it has become a large centerpiece in my tank( gonna try to remember to measure it tomorrow). It is now growing out of the water. It has grown almost 1/8" above the waterline. I assume that...

Phyl, I have a friend that does that does that at a print shop or on the side. I'll talk to her if you can't find anybody. Taz

Chopped it off with my sawzall and took it back to lowes today. no receipt, no questions asked and also gave me credit for the extra parts(reducer bushings,coupler) that I couldn't salvage because I glued as one unit! Got the good double union valve now.

Ham: the valve side is glued to the sump. The water is going fom the sump through the valve and leaking. I originally had the screw on side off then I screwed it onto see if there would be a difference and there wasn't. Good thing, because the valve would be useless if the pump side had to be...

Just installed a 2" ball valve on the new sump that I'm upgrading to in the basement. I cheaped out (I know you get what you pay for..LOL) and bought the one that I guess you would call "single union" (it unscrews from the pipe only on one side). Well I started to fill the sump with water to...

I understand that TDS stands for total disolved solids which would be impurities in the water. With a reading of 0ppm is there anything at all in the water? Can there be any phoshates or anything else still in the water at 0ppm? I do not know how accurate my TDS meter is, but I do get 122ppm at...

I have an Aqua C EV-120 that I thought was a good skimmer years ago. I know there are much better ones, but for the time being it's better than nothing. Mine is very unconsistent. one day it'll be wet skimming like crazy and for a couple days it may not pull any thing out I've tried just about...

There was a time I wished my dog was like that. My wife and I would walk him around our old neighborhood every night after work and he would never fail to squat on the yellow line as we were crossing. Let me tell you that is pretty embarassing on a busy road holding up traffic! :-\ Taz

I have had the same issue, but I believe mine was plug 3. I bought another one (used). I wondered myself why it stopped working Taz

Cayars, Surfing around the site I found your suggestion to use Phos-free. I would like to recommend this to my brother, but I am curious about the precipitation. His last tank worked out for him(90gal) with little hair algae in the beginning, but no trace of it for a couple of years after...

Does anybody know much about seating in this arena? My wife wants to go see Larry the cable guy. I see he will be there, but do not know much about the arena. The website shows that it will be end stage seating. I do not like sitting on the floor in folding chairs directly in front of the stage...
