Wow! Too many questions. Can Dangerbird plead the fifth?
I have to believe that after five years, all the leaching that is going to occur has already happened. I do believe it’s a nutrient problem, but not from the rocks.
I actually received it as a Christmas gift….what can I tell you, my wife spends BIG! LOL.
The fish pictures and information is absolutely great. The information on setting up a saltwater tank is archaic. PaulB cover your ears….they talk about UGF as a means to keep saltwater tanks! No...
Sorry Graybolt and lefkonj, all five pieces have been requested by others. However, only two have been picked up. If someone drops out, I’ll let you know.

Well, I gave it a pretty good cut and it now looks like this:
It isn’t happy, but the haircut resulted in five good sized pieces. I’ve promised one to a member, so the remaining four are up for...

Hey, watch what you are saying….you now need to apologize to that herd of cows you just passed on the left. You hurt their feelings, and if they get upset….no milk, and therefore no cheese!
They are talking about a durso standpipe that looks something like this home-made one:
In the top of this drain pipe is a little hole that keeps the drain from starting a siphon. If that hole is clogged or underwater, a siphon could start. Here’s a picture of the top of a durso drain...
