    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    O yeah, the Paintman. He's still around. I heard he stopped working on his truck and got up off his butt and finished the lighting on his tank. He just needs to get the t5 reflectors. I also heard a rumor that he did a major project off the back of his house so he could host another NJRC meeting...

    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    I look at it this way Bill......Why rush to set the new tank up when my current tank looks like this... Plus I'm hoping that by the time I am done, the oceans will have been depleted of all its live sand. That way I won't be tempted to throw some in my new tank and turn it into a septic...

    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    Ok, so I had time to mock up the first rack for my lights. I tell ya anyone looking to make a rack should consider the ESTO connector system! Its quick and super easy. The channel cuts like butter and the connectors just need a couple of good whacks with a rubber mallet. I still have to put in...

    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    Hey thanx man, I think these lights will work fine for what i'm doing. I'm just an LPS softies kind of guy. The plan is once mounted in the rack, I'll have the units about 12"-14" off the water, so with the 120 degree optics, it should broaden out the intensity over the entire tank. I think...

    Be careful what you wish for.

    that was something else I had talked to my elec. about them. He told me they work great and where about $300 for a good one but the problem is they are only good for one strong surge. Seeing as how we lose power on my street about once a month even with good weather, I opted out for now. But of...

    Be careful what you wish for.

    When we had our generator installed our electrician said that a lot of people who wire their own small generators directly into their sub panel don't know what they are doing. He told me that if the generator is running, and the power from the street comes back on, a lot of people don't know...

    If you need gas and your close to PA

    If your close enough, go just across the Delaware near Easton! Take 78 across river and get into downtown Easton or onto Rt. 33 Then Get onto Freemansburgh Ave. Its a totally different world no lines all stations are open. Went Last night only 1 car in front of us.

    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    Hmmm... Now see that's why its taken me 3 years to finish up this tank, just to many choices! I'll bet 3 of the 160 watt units would work perfect over my 8 footer for what I keeping. Although I didn't see the prices anywhere.
