Continuation of the Canopy Build On the front lower frame member I attached a strip of 1/16 acrylic, jutting down a half inch. This will hit the front glass of the tank and keep the canopy from sliding back. Primed the box with Kilz….here it is upside down without the door: And...

Sick! And he killed his mother as well.

I believe it's called inflation!

I do not care for the tenor of your comment. Accordingly, my Shop Steward and I will be in your office first thing tomorrow morning to file a grievance. :grin: For the oldest profession, in today’s economy, that’s a bargain! Stop complaining and pay! :o Now, for the build...

Having recently made additions to this Tale, I decided to reflect on the earlier posts I’ve made by going back to day-one and reading. To my horror, I only got as far as my very first post. In this post, made over two years ago, I had a “To-Do” list, which I will repeat here: 1. Build...

It's minutes. I worked with a mechanical contractor and his comment about cure time was the time it took you to get back to the main and turn on the water.

Slap that level on your top edges....they are the important ones as far as the water level being even with the top edges. That bottom glass could have a little warp or bend in it.

MxMaster Carr or Grainger both have a number of locations in New Jersey. I sure both have these clamps in stock. Their catalogs are online.

I like A

I think I understand.....shrinkage.

I don’t have a pressure gauge, so I’m flying blind. Maybe my next RO/DI project, where I’m considering adding another membrane to reduce my waste water volume, I might add in a pressure gauge. I’ve been on this “green” kick this past year or so, even though the financial analysis would...

George and Ryan, here’s the story. I’ve always known that I’ve had low water pressure. We considered a lawn sprinkler system a number of years ago, and the guy said we only had thirty-something pounds of pressure, and would have to put in multiple zones for it all to work correctly. So...

John, thanks for your generous offer. I do have a phone that does all that stuff and more. But realize I’m an old fart and only know where that little green button is where I say “Hello.” I believe your response, and the one from Taz, and the fact that I’ve now made ten gallons of good...

Sorry John....I can't figure out how to post a video. Yea, it's not real loud. Reminds me of the piston action aerator I had on my freshwater tanks back in the 60's. I just wasn't expecting this thing to make noise.

I just finished installing a booster pump for my RO/DI unit. I’ve never seen these in action, so this is all new to me. When I run this thing it makes a putt-putt-putt noise and has a bit of vibration to it. Is this normal? Here’s a short video (turn your volume on). Unfortunately the...

I’m interested as well. I have this nice looking zoa, if you’re interested. It’s a “named” zoa, but I can’t remember its name. Here’s a picture:

Thanks Mike and Nikki. The new tank and fish room are fantastic. It also amazes me on the variety and amount of food and drink. Also thanks to Zippy (Pete) and Daniel (Daniel) for their generosity. Good stuff!

Criminy all mighty….are we changing the website to www.njpussies.org? :grin:

Boy I hear you Nikki. I’m Irish and it reminds me of Uncle Sheamus, who became a lot more stable when he “wet his whistle” as well. The alc seemed to calm him down and certainly made him appear to be more stable. Unfortunately Uncle Sheamus liked tipping the elbow a bit too much and...
