    As an adult with a seasoned mind and liver I see you have your mental/ physical stimulus on your new stand. This of course needs to be in the fridge....unless you are British, then by all means drink it warm.

    Help me make a reefing decision

    Option 2. You being the coral lover would not be satisfied with jut an 80gal frag tank for 1.5 years! The German in me says why piss money on a 120 that will finally mature and ripen around the time you are adamant to upgrade to the 200. Besides, when it's all said and done why not use the 90 in...

    Planning new build, input appreciated

    If it ain't broke don't go fixing....especially if it's gonna look that way in a healthy system in a few months Besides the evaporation factor the calcium carbonate of the coraline would exhaust vinegar trapped in the towel in a short time. No?

    Inherited 90

    With the advent of the cold snap and decreased humidity....the wood is drier and contracts/shrinks, does this factor into the floor deflection. Maybe with shrunken wood of some part you do not have the intimate contact to disperse said weight. Thinking if it was hot and humid over time outside...

    You can drill the side wall of a 40 gal breeder from petco. Yes/no? I have a design plan for my 120. The wall it is up against has a closet on the opposite side. I was looking to put a 40 in the closet floor that the DT would drain to. Here I would also have my skimmer and the refugium with a...

    Zippys tank

    I used a fork and tooth brush to add texture so as the coral encrusts it will really fuse to the mount. Also once coraline starts it will look even better. Cost for all my clay14$, magnets, special large with 10 lb weight hold @ 5$ a piece. Cost to fire.....6 pack of some Belgian ale/ 9% alc;)...
