    The 210 tank build

    Nice update nikki. Sorry to hear about the few small hiccups, unfortunately they happen in this hobby as we all know. Great pickup on the hula fish. They are a really cool fish and it's very exciting that they now be more widely available. Can't wait to hear what mikes present is. Best of...

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

    [QUO TE=Mark...;755763]I didn't think dumping the skimmer to be a problem, and thought I'd end up draining off the DT up stairs to keep it clean. As much as I'd like to pump off the sump. the salt water will do a job on the lawn. I'm going to have to think about it some more. I've spent more...

    Dan's 90G Reef

    I'm almost positive that pump has a 1 yr warranty. Not sure how old it is but it may be worth looking into.

    Dan's 90G Reef

    Does the impeller seem damaged at all? Is it pumping water at all and no bubbles or just doing nothing?

    Have you tried taking the pump apart and giving it a good cleaning? If not I would try that before ordering a new one.

    Or if you have a sump pit just run it there.

    How far would the nearest sink be? I have seen people run the waste line to the nearest sink on the first floor, drill a small hole under the sink and hook up to the sink drain before the trap with a saddle valve like the one that comes with the BRS units.

    You should have no problem pushing waste up 2 ft I have seen it go up further than that. As far as tapping into a sewage line I believe you would want to have a trap installed rather than just tap into the pipe. Do you have a sink or washer and dryer in the basement?

    You should be able to just pump the water straight throw the DI with a small pump. You do not need the pressure from the booster pump to go through just the DI. The booster pumps pressure is needed to push the water through the membrane.

    Live rock... repair?

    I let it cure about 2 weeks after I etched the rock. I used this rock for a brand new tank, if I was going to be using it in an existing tank I would have cured for a minimum of 4 weeks. As for the bleach you are correct that the chlorine would evaporate if let to dry, however I would still...

    Live rock... repair?

    I personally would etch the rock and then cure it. Remove the water that the rock is in now and add 1-2 gallons of distilled vinegar and top off with rodi water. I let mine soak in the mixture for about a day maybe 2. Remove it from the vinegar/water, rinse and then cure either in fresh made...
