He’ll eat his words when he finds out that reef tanks are more addictive than drugs. In addition, similar to marijuana leading to harder drugs, your first tank always leads to constant upgrading to larger tanks. :grin:

AJ wins the award, with Anthony/Terry verifying….Rainbow Acan Enchinata. Doesn’t look so much like the picture link AJ had, but looks more like this example I found:

Well I'm a Born-Again Newbie. So, what acan is it?

No. :stupid: It could be?? Maybe I should have labeled this, "What is it?"

Thanks Mark. :)

I’ve got a chalice and I would like to know what it is. Can anyone help me out? Please realize this is a point-n-shoot camera and doesn’t capture its true colors. It’s multicolored with orange, green, blue and purple.

You best pick up some crow. With you rooting for the Patriots, I think you’ll be eating crow. :grin:

I'm having: Nachos 8lbs Homemade Buffalo Wings Chili Finger Sandwhiches with homemade bread. Lots of beer Lots of wine The only question is what time should I be at your place? :grin: Actually I'm off to my sister's and brother-in-law's house and the only thing I've heard was chili and...

Are you talking about a Beananimal overflow? Regardless, start a Tale of the Tank, and include pictures.

Mark, I’m curious about your ATO. What electrical components of the ATO are in your sump? I would think it is just a float switch. Whose ATO are you using? Most float switches we use have a low voltage DC current that goes to a relay switch (Although AC120 volt float switches are available...

Is there an echo in here? :grin: Same question, different post, same answer! Ryan, the above response from Brian is the best and safest way to plug up the holes. You could try a piece of glass that is held and sealed with silicone (reef safe silicone), but I’d feel more comfortable...

My guess is a small volume of alk??? Water on its own has no buffering capability and therefore the pH will be dictated by whatever buffers you add. I would think a few drops of alk (or a pinch of baking soda), would do it.

Anyone else catch the fact that these things came up from 33,000 feet. That’s 1000 times the pressure at sea level. Again, one thousand times! I say that at depth, these guys are no bigger than a grain of sand. When they are quickly brought to the surface, the change in pressure makes them...

I would first check to see that the glass was not tempered….easy to do using THIS simple test. I used a pair of polarized sunglasses and a netbook computer. Once you verify non-tempered glass, drill away. As far as the old holes, leave the bulkheads there and put in plugs….either threaded...

Should be able to buy it at your local drug store. However, since Uncle Sammy started regulating it a couple years ago, you can only find it in small little bottles. If you can't find it locally, you can find it on amazon.com. It's like French perfume.....little bottle, a lot of bucks.

Any good ground. If need be, use another piece of wire to reach.

One minor little correction....with AC (alternating current) it doesn't matter which one goes in the tank and which one goes to ground.....red / black....black / red....it doesn't matter.

Joe, one of these is sufficient for a 40B. As far as look, they come in various combinations of white and blue LEDS, going from ca 10K to 15K to 20K. It all depends on the look/growth you want. I don't have the "Chinese" fixtures, but if you're in the area, you're welcome to check out what...

Is there a battery in the meter? Set the meter to AC volts. Put one of the probes in the water and the other to a good ground. That's it.

Stuck Cucumber Hadn’t seen my cucumber in a week or so, and just figured it was motoring around the caves and back area of the tank. I’m cleaning my glass, and come over to the side of my tank, were my frag rack is stuck to the side of the tank. In the rack is my cucumber, and looked like it...
