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 never understood those that soaked their rock in vinegar. The rock is calcium carbonate….the same stuff we clean off our powerheads and other equipment using vinegar. You put rock in vinegar and you are dissolving the rock. It will continue until you remove the rock or the acid is...
I ain’t good with English, but I’ve got to believe that “muse” is some sort of alcoholic beverage. It takes a little muse for me to dance too, and it’s usually interpreted as “white-man-dancing.” So have the muse chilled and ready to drink! Dance :very_drunk: :grin:
I’m pretty confident your corals will be sorry. These are so underpowered you’ll have to have everything within an inch of the water surface. Do a little research and you’ll find that, at a minimum, you will need 1 watt leds. The ones most of us are using are 3 watt. You say only $45...
I’m in a 40B with relatively high baffles and still have room for the back-flow from the DT:
When I turn off my pump, the water level fills the return section just to the level of the baffles.
You can easily calculate the volume of your backflow and the available space in your sump...
I originally installed siphon breaks (and they’re still there), but eventually installed a total of four loc-lines so my return flow wasn’t too great. This allowed me to raise the Loc-line so it was just at the surface of the water. Now I get no back-siphoning from my return lines. I only...
Jason, I was wondering what this change was. I noticed this about a month ago, what use to be only “IMG” code was now both “URL” and “IMG” together. For the most part I’ve been deleting the “URL” part off the code. Just make sure you erase all the nonsense at the front of the code and the...
Actually Karen, thank you for the kind words. This is what this club is all about....it's just not me or Brian. Your job is to pass it on, and I’m sure you will.
I pulled a real good Homer “D’oh!” today.
I spent the afternoon regenerating about two gallons of DI resin. I did this in three batches because of the size of my homemade separatory funnel and filter container.
So I’m doing my sodium hydroxide mix and separation of the anionic / cationic...
I saw this over on Reef2Reef and thought some here might be interested, especially if you have pulsing xenia.
Pulsing Xenia mystery solved
I also realized in posting this that we don’t have a “softies” section in Livestock Care and Questions. There is SPS&LPS and Leathers, Shrooms and...
Happy Birthday, (I’m assuming Teri)…..because there can only be one Raffle King, so this person better be who I think it is, wishing his sweetie a Happy Birthday.
