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.
So, you can either appreciate their creativity and humor... or ... you can sit and wonder how sane (or insane) the person running things over there is. :o
Paul, I'll try to help you get pics added if you want. If we can't get it done due to your accounts rights, you can just send me the pics or links to them and I'll edit your post to add them if you want.
As some of you may know, as part of our non-profit organization (501c3) requirements, we donated $1000 to Rutgers - Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences (IMCS). With that donation, we also expressed our interest in helping the school with future projects and possibly providing certain coral...
If your looking to have something made, Acrylic Creations is a company I've seen at a few frag swaps that does some really nice work. They are in Butler, PA (above Pittsburgh) so it would need to be shipped... but worth looking into.
They were actually signed up for a booth at our Frag Swap the...
I would hesitate adding to the display for one reason only... you have a fairly large group of fish in there now. If there is any problem with using this chemical, you could possibly wipe out a lot of them at once. I would at least QT 1 or 2 fish and try it in the QT. Then, if there are no...
Are you looking to build the entire sump or just cut/add baffles to an existing tank? If you are just cutting baffles to install... I'd suggest cutting them using a good straight edge and scoring it rather than cutting with a saw. It will be a much cleaner cut.
Also, if you need to fine tune...
Well, I don't have the chemistry background as Paul, so I can't confirm or deny his undecided answer. :p

I do think Paul was onto something with the dwell or contact time. That seems to be a major factor with...
Same with mine. Mine has split twice so far and my original didn't move until after the 2nd split. After that it moved, but for the first two it stayed put. The babies always went wandering looking for it's own spot though.
Unfortunately, mine always split when I wasn't around and I didn't...
Paul, first off, welcome back. You have been missed around here!
As for the pic posting issue, we had to prevent all non-paid member accounts from posting any links (which usually includes pics) to help prevent spammers from posting harmful links.
You should still be able to post a pic...
Yea, the RSVP page isn't very full yet and the meeting is next weekend!
I might be coming but not sure if my son has a wrestling match that day yet. I probably won't know until middle of next week.
Thanks Mark. Sometimes I wonder if I add too much and confuse and/or lose people in it all though. I've never tested my wastewater (although I recently saw a "free water test" display at Home Depot... maybe I'll bring some in and get it tested) but my TDS meter shows it as <10 before the DI...
