I’m just scratching my head on these glass frit probes. I’ve got to believe these go bad……and then what happens to the temperature in your tank when they crap out? In my miniscule brain the “herpetology” temperature probes appear to be more stable, submersible, and lasting for ever.

I erred….I though the current temperature probes I have had silvery metal ends…..they don’t. They look just like the picture above…..plastic coated probes. So I’ve been using their “herpetology” temperature probe, fully submerged, for over five years! For those using ReefKeepers (2’s...

Hey Jim, do you want to show me how to use my refractometer? :grin: :grin: :grin:

Jedi............too short!

I agree that I think the home page should be updated with great frequency. But don’t get your panties in a wad, and just minimize the stuff that bothers you. Here’s what I’m looking at so I don’t have to see the blue box and the outdated meeting info (just minimize it!):

:worthless

I think you’re crazy! :grin: So you can keep all you polyps and GSP, but when are you coming for some pretty tan star polyps. They’ll keep you GSP company and make you happy Forest.

It's a photo directly from the DA site for their i-temp probe? And I see it now on the larger picture I've posted...you can see "pH." I've edited the OP with the i-temp photo form Marine Depot....this one says i-temp on the side.

I’m old and don’t like change, and I’m happier than a pig in mud with my old technology ReefKeeper 2 controllers. I now have three of them, and they suit my needs just fine……until picking up my last one. The first two RK-2’s had nice metal (probably bimetallic) temperature probes that are as...

I'll be here....I'll send you a PM with contact info.

It is not nailed down, but the date they are checking on right now is June 15. Stay tuned.

Got to get some of this out of my tank......come and get it. Thanks.

At first I thought it was a Stephen Wilkes Day to Night photograph. If you’re not familiar, google his name and New York City….his photographs are spectacular. Anyway, that first photo looks just like one of his photographs……cool! Nice job John.

Nitrite levels in saltwater tanks never get high enough to impact the fish (and other invertebrates). However, you do have to watch nitrite levels in freshwater tanks. HERE is a nice read from Dr. Randy.

Sorry for your loss. That stinks! You save him after months in the overflow and he then passes. :(

Skinned the back and front with ¼ inch ply and primed the inside with Kilz. The back ¼ ply was glued and nailed with 1 inch wire brads while the front was glued and screwed in place. The screws were puttied with wood filler.

With saltwater, not one bit. As a matter of fact, throw that test kit away. Nitrite is never an issue with saltwater livestock. For the life of me, I don't know why people test for it, other then tracking a cycle. Only need to test for ammonia (very "poisonous"), and nitrate (final...

It looks like Bella had one too many at the bar! :grin: Keep the pictures coming.

George, I’d definitely go with face-frame construction…for the stand and the side cabinet. The side cabinet walls could be a ½ ply by itself or ¼ ply with a fir stir at the corners to support the back piece.....both are available as furniture grade with oak veneer. Look at your kitchen...
