Great! So how did you fix it….divorce the wife, kick her out of the house, or just tell her to shut up? :o

I’m no expert, but I believe bivalves “cement” themselves to the rock. Accordingly I think it’s real iffy trying to move it and keeping it alive.

Hey, watch what you are saying….you now need to apologize to that herd of cows you just passed on the left. You hurt their feelings, and if they get upset….no milk, and therefore no cheese!

They are talking about a durso standpipe that looks something like this home-made one: In the top of this drain pipe is a little hole that keeps the drain from starting a siphon. If that hole is clogged or underwater, a siphon could start. Here’s a picture of the top of a durso drain...

I’ve decided to go LED. However, before making this decision, I had already purchased new bulbs for my T5s. So I have two ATI 54W Aquablue Specials and two ATI 54W Blue Pluses still in their boxes. These are four unused new bulbs. Asking $20 each.

Epoxy stick. If you can take the rocks out of the tank momentarily, I'd also drill a hole in each of the two pieces you are joining and insert a plastic rod (piece of plastic clothes hanger). Then put the epoxy around where that rod is located. HERE is an example from Premium Aquatics.

Don, that is absolutely fantastic! What a great memento of that day. Now how come I don’t see bottle caps and beach whistles in that frame? :grin:

A little fuzzy, but I’ll take the first guess….Idaho Grape Montipora Undata

Wow! You like to take a big gamble. When you say “percent,” do you mean percula? It’s hard to tell from the fuzzy, dark photo, but that could still easily be a maroon……. that doesn’t look that small. If you try to put this guy in your DT, have nets ready to try to separate and protect the...

Like you are going to be the only one! Can someone give me a hand spotting Steve…..it’s like finding Waldo! OK, one day away…..I’m starting to get really envious now.

29! That’s a heat wave in Greenbay. I guarantee there will be cheeseheads there without their shirts on!

I have a chef daughter and her boyfriend is also a chef….so I don’t cook. The two of them stopped in New Year’s Eve and prepared a five star dinner for guests we had at the house. It was magnificent….filet mignon, halibut, shrimp, scallops, twice baked potatoes, risotto with mushrooms, etc...

Ditto I have Kenya and Green Leather…..maybe a few zenia still hanging around after I did some house cleaning about three weeks ago. Here’s what the mamma leather looks like. I can easily frag off a part…..it’s getting too big. I’m in Sayreville and you’re welcome to whatever I can pull...

Part of what determines your return flow rate (how big a pump you need) is the overflow rate you have. Obviously you don’t want to put more water into the DT than what the overflow can handle. As an example, lets assume your overflow handles 700 gph. You want a return pump that supplies less...

Wow! Spectacular clams…phenomenal price! These are more in my price range..$4.99 a dozen:

I’m not so concerned about the pump….more concerned about where that water is sent. Where does your sump pump eject that water? Most that I’ve seen, it’s just outside the basement wall on either foundation plants or turf. In either case, the salt will poison the soil and kill those plants...

Also put a top on that QT....they are jumpers.

I’m not familiar with your overflow, but when we had an external box that also had a noise problem, I made a durso style standpipe that friction fit into the down pipe. Not sure if this would fit in yours, but it quieted the overflow in our case. Installed in the box
