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 tested the flow and all three pipes get the same flow as determined by the temperature. I pumped how water through the thing and all 3 pipes got hot at the same time so I am good to go. Next I am going to glue the LEDs on.
That short pipe near the center is not connected, that is just a support soldered on to the outside of the tubing. But you are correct about the flow. The center horizontal pipe, the way it's plumbed will not get much flow. I am going to replace one of the Tees with a restrictor valve which...
I started making the frame of my water cooled LED fixture. Now I am going to clean it up and connect the LEDs to it, them build a radiator. Does anybody need a water cooled LED fixture? Of course not. It is just very cool.
Here is a better picture
My reef is starting to grow a little algae. Not much, just on places where I glued things and a few other places. That is fine and I like it. It is a cycle and this "no algae" cycle has lasted for years. Usually I see some every couple of years. I want it to grow now because I need my new...
I have been hatching brine shrimp every day for probably 25 years. You can grow them on plain bakers yeast. But they are best as soon as they hatch. They are the same brine shrimp you see in a LFS as adults. Hatch them in old tank water, do not add RO or any fresh water. They come from the...
My good friend gave me this 330 watt LED light because most of it didn't work. I fixed it but they really don't want you to fix these things. First of all there are over 325 tiny screws holding the LED board to the heat sink. Those alone is a real pain to remove. Then you pry the thing apart...
Sounds good. Remember the bacteria in their food. To keep them immune their immune system needs bacteria all the time so their immune system keeps functioning. Good luck.
As for RC. Someone there mentioned my book. It was immediately deleted.

Today I went to an Orthopedic surgeon for a knee pain. I already had 4 or 5 knee surgeries and 3 or 4 shoulder surgeries, but if you worked construction for 40 years and didn't wear out your joints, you were doing it wrong, weren't working hard enough or you are a Sissy or Girly Man. Joint...
Horseplay, well the very pretty girl in the other car was kind of a Supermodel, but she was very pregnant so I called her pretty instead of Supermodel because that is a better term for a Mother to be
No, Not my tank. Don't be ridiculous I have a Undergravel filter, that can't crash.
My "car" was in a crash.
I was stopped for a light having a philosophical conversation with my wife about the universe, the meaning of life, or what we were having for dinner when all of a sudden:
CRASH...
A little more on immunity if anyone is interested. This stuff fascinates me almost as much as Supermodels.
A fishes epidermis consists of, besides other things, various types of unicellular glands some of which are goblet or mucous (slime) glands. These glands secrete slime. (other parts of...
I took my algae scrubber apart so I could smear cement mortar on the screen. I found out years ago that algae loves mortar. When it cures in a few days, I will put it back in and build the LED fixture to illuminate it.
