So the concern is more over floods then dampering vibration?

Going from a submersible pump (Mag 24) to an external pump for the skimmer (MRC-2). Would like to know how the rest of the world mounts up the pump motor. Do you put it up on bushings or just bolt it down to a slab of plywood? Thanks!

From Melev's Reef, a Q-tip/ Pineapple / Scypha sponge: Compare pictures....looks Q-tip to me. Also, on Melev's they mention the little buggers show up in the overflow: http://melevsreef.com/id/scypha.html

It's been over a month since the crash. I'm ready for an update....with pictures!

I don’t think it is a matter of one being “better” than the other. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. Glass: Cheaper More difficult to cut (for the DIYer) Bonds well with silicone Acrylic (plexiglass) or other plastic (such as what I used; polycarbonate): More costly...

No, it’s not too political…it has been discussed before: http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=17284.msg158085#msg158085 http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=17200.msg157397#msg157397

Neat picture....all those little eyes looking at you. Good luck!

Please let your uncle know that I’m your long lost relative. Now, where’s my tank? ;D Congratulations. I guess this means you’ll be changing your avatar? Last time I checked 125 gallons doesn’t qualify as a nano. Now get those pictures up asap....we want pictures. Can’t wait.

David and family, thank you very much for hosting this month’s meeting. I really enjoyed your tank. Being able to view the tank from both sides is like having two tanks. Thanks to Red Sand, Herb and Rafal for supplying/donating to the raffle. Actually stopped by Red Sand on the way home and Jon...

Honey, crab bisque for dinner tonight.

I wonder if those acrylate glass fixing kits they sell for automobiles would help cover the scratches. I've used them for rock dings for cars and they worked pretty good. Are your scratches on the inside or outside?

Agree with mike….low nitrates. The other contributing factor could be lights. T5’s on a sump…do you have corals in your sump? What bulbs are you running. Generally speaking, the lower the temperature (k value) the more usable light for algae. If you want that stuff to grow (and want to stick...

Not to mention fitting it through the front door. The weight…..It’s in the write-up….13,200 pounds when full. I’m sure that exceeds the load capacity of a stick built house. That would need its’ own footings and foundation.

Ah come on. Just bring it home on the plane with you. If they ask, just say it is a sushi-like snack that you’ll be eating on the plane. Crunchy! ;D

Chump change. I believe there is a bigger WOW! to have it moved and installed.
