    Marks...Back to the Future..Reef Aquarium

    I just tried looking up the specs on this pump and found conflicting information. One site (BRS) stated the outflow is 1 1/2 male NPT, while another site stated 1 1/4 (no mention if NPT). I'm assuming the barb you have on there is a step-down barb most likely for 1 1/4 or 1 inch tubing...

    Marks...Back to the Future..Reef Aquarium

    A barb is for tubing, while flex pipe uses standard PVC fittings. That is, flex pipe wasn't meant to be used with a barb.

    Propane generator deals

    +1 They actually make dual or tri fuel conversion kits from approximately 100 to 200 shekels. Here is my take on the price/quality of generator you purchase.....it is exactly the same thought I have on the purchase of power tools. I purchase tools to the expected use of the...

    Propane generator deals

    You would have to change out the pressure regulator and the metering valve. You'd also have to watch the fuel adjustment to make sure you are running a little rich. If natural gas or propane engines run lean, they will burn out the valves.

    Propane generator deals

    There are a whole bunch of benefits to propane. However, the one major disadvantage is the cost of fuel. I had heard that someone went through $700 of propane with Sandy. Generator is inexpensive, but the fuel is the killer. Might wish to consider a generator with a multi-fuel...

    Wtf is this?!

    Some marine flatworms can take on a nudi appearance. However, flatworms are in a different phylum, while nudi's are in the mollusca phylum.....class gastropodes....same as snails and slugs. Is this thing flat or does it have some three dimension......that thing is nudi all the way.

    I apologize Praveen....I didn't understand your original question and answered with one of my usual smarta$$ answers. Yes, you are correct that it is "closed," so when the power goes out the closed loop loses nothing. Here is a diagram of a closed loop and sump setup. The closed loop is...

    Dan's 150 Rebuild

    Oh! It's just the tubing that transports the water. I took it as you pumping air into your ATO. I use scrap acrylic and put a groove into it that snuggly fits the tubing. Nicely holds the tubing at the bottom. I use these in my ATO, and both dosing containers.
