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.
Not sure of any local places, but here are a few online vendors:

The sump Paul made looks great. I prefer the skimmer - fuge - return layout better like John was talking about... but this design works well too, especially if you have dual overflows and 2 lines coming into the sump.
The only suggestion I would make (no matter which version you use) is to...
Hey, you said she said "when she dies" she wants you to make it... you don't have to start on it just yet. ;)
Looking great Paul. Can't wait to see the finished product with tank and canopy all together.
I acquired a new Foscam FI9820W from Kevin and got it setup today. This is a pretty cool little device and I've been able to set it up without any troubles at all. The only real issue I have is a decent spot to mount the camera to get a good view of my tank. But, I was able to find a spot up...
There's a good chance that Suntuity will be doing a solar presentation at our meeting at Brian's this month. If you want to know more about how it all works and the current rebates etc. then you might want to be there.
Suntuity will also be at our frag swap in June if you can't make the...
I agree with all of that. However, only a very limited number of specimens have been successfully tank bred. If they put a stop on importing, whatever isn't already here will never have a chance to be successfully tank bred.
That's why I said they need to allow at least some importation via...
I use a VorTech. Main reasons are:
1. Motor and all electrical parts are outside the tank - no risk of stray voltage to harm my livestock
2. Due to #1 above, very little heat is added to the water column
3. Many different settings built in and wireless control allows me to control it remotely...
That's just my point though. What happens if they try to ressurrect a "docile" creature but they screw something up and it gets a gene that makes it a predator? Something as large and powerful as a mammoth could be a real problem.
And I'm with Mike on Kevin's comment. Sheesh, where did the...
Very interesting. I think if they pursue this they should be careful. De-extincting a single creature and caring for it under the protection of a zoo might be ok... but if they produce more than one, introduce them into the wild, and for some reason their "science" has some flaws in it, it could...
Ugh. If this was an effort to protect the species they're trying to lock out, I'd understand. But it seems their just afraid that these creatures will harm us?
I've seen some cats and dogs that are more dangerous to us than fish and reptiles. Granted, some snakes and venomous/poisonous critters...
Ouch, can't even clean up your own mess right, huh? If your wife ever reads my comments, I hope she knows I'm just kidding around. :cower:
Will anything be close to the front of the stand? Maybe you can make some sort of track to slide the doors straight out the front? You could put a...
Paul, just tell her that's why you bought her a vacuum for her birthday. :p (Then duck to avoid the projectile coming at your head.)
Seriously though, looking great!
Since I know you can't make any more progress without my curious questions... what's the plan for the doors on the stand? Or...
In the past, many of our members have requested a forum where we can share what we all do for a living, outside of the reefing world. The idea is to have our own little "directory" of locals who can help perform services (like plumbing work, carpeting, remodeling, taxes, lawyers, etc.) or even...
Ok, balls in your court James. When you find out if you'll be at the meeting (or even if you arrange for someone at the meeting to get it from me for you) then I'll work out getting it from Dan with him.
OK. And if it helps, I can just give Dan the $70 and you can pay me when you get it. Worst case scenario, I get a brand new mag12 for $70, lol.
Anyway, just let me know if you want me to handle it.
Hey no offense was taken, sorry if I came off that way. I was just trying to explain in detail how to find all the posts that were already here. Yes, I noticed your other post about why we don't have a nano forum (when we did) so I assumed you needed a little help finding the posts you weren't...
