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 read that on another forum and thought the same thing. Being on a couple forums it makes me happy I'm on here more and more. Lots of great people with the interest of the hobby in mind.
Take a look at the spectrapure refurbished units on their website. It's around $120 for the 90gpd. Spectrapure makes some of the better units on the market. I would stay away from the rodi buddy.
+ 1 also make sure you are using primer and the pipes are completely dry. If it's a slow leak check out the link I posted earlier. HD or any irrigation supply should have them
Dan. Cut it out and replace it. That is going To be the only guaranteed fix. If you don't fix it correctly now it likely won't be done and will cause you headaches from here on out. For a temporary fix that tape is ok but not for the long term.
I'm a bit far but willing to help out if you can't find anyone else. I am scheduled every 2 weeks in that area so it may work out for when you can take them back. Willing to meet if it will help you out
You can do some a little bit of sand and a bit of rock. I would get some small pieces and do a simple scape so it doesn't look like you just threw the rock in there. A nice mix of macro algae would be cool. Mix colors some cheato, red gracilaria (doubles as tang food they normally love it)...
I would recommend it without a doubt. I have seen them in others tanks and they look great once they get some color. After handling it and seeing the build quality I like it even more.
It was $75. Holds 13 frag plugs. The quality is great. The magnet is super strong, I put it in place and wanted to slide it a bit to where I wanted it and there was no budging it. I had to separate the magnet to get it to move.
