    Cleaning out the garage

    Praveen, the words say Hanna Calcium checker, but the picture shows an Alkalinity checker. If it's the Alkalinity checker, I'll take it.

    Hummer Alert

    I was out on the porch yesterday evening between 7 and 8 PM, and it was like a World War I dog-fight with so many hummers wanting to come in to feed. I have two feeders out, around the corner from each other, but they know this, and being so territorial, check both feeders before coming in to...

    I'm so confused on powerheads

    Ed, you're being too hard on yourself. I'm not overly concerned about you being termed a "Gyre Fan Boy," but more concerned about your love life. I've been told that Jen doesn't want any more kids out of fear that you'll insist that the new baby be called Gyre. :o :o :o :wink: Of...

    Old Fart Pride

    Wow! A whole lot of true in those words. I'm a soccer referee.....been doing it for 35 years or so. I just had this conversation last weekend with the crew I worked with how, more specifically, the U17-18 and 19 year old boys show very little respect for authority. It has gotten more...

    Gone a few days - feeding?

    On the Eheim Every Day Feeder I believe the little fan only comes on when the feeder is doing its turning thing. If not, then my fan has stopped working on both of my feeders. Also, if you feed a floating type of food (flakes), you'll want to pick up a feeding ring or simply make one out...

    Hummer Alert

    I resurrected this thread because I was just out on my porch carbon dosing when a ruby throated humming bird came in to feed. I've had my feeders out for about two weeks or so and this is the first hummer I've seen this year. So get you feeders out there now! Simple recipe.....1 cup...

    Inherited 90

    Tom's Aqualifter Rebuild The Tom's Aqualifter that I use for my ATO died today. This pump was purchased in 2007 for the external overflow I was running at the time, so I can't complain. Now I have a back-up Aqualifter, but also have a little rebuild kit. Here's the kit next to the opened...

    150G rebuilt/reset - lesson learned!

    First off, the canopy looks fantastic! Nice job. Color is a personnal choice........but I think the Blue + only T5's is an excellent addition to your LED combination. I have very blue LED's (36 blue / 15 white / 4 red) and still supplimented with two Blue + T5's. I think you'll be happy...

    New 90 Gallon Reef setup. - Going to need alot of advice.

    I would not use the presence of Asterina as a indication of water quality. It certainly is a good sign that they are alive, but you really can't take the place of doing the proper testing for water quality using your test kits.

    New 90 Gallon Reef setup. - Going to need alot of advice.

    Sounds like you have Asterina starfish. There is a love/hate feeling about Asterina. Some folks don't have a problem with them....others want them out. Note that a very small percentage are known to eat certain corals. The general belief is that white is safe....colored Asterina could...

    This is just awful!

    Wait one minute......wasn't this a tank with sharks, rays and lionfish???? Guess what.......trichlorfon should not be used on these guys. So death would have happened anyway. Something smells fishy here. Here's the warning right from drug information: DO NOT USE ON FISH THAT ARE...

    How to tell when rbta is happy.

    The smaller (male) isn't ignoring the anemone. It's the mean, overbearing, dominant female that's hogging the anemone saying, "This is mine! Keep out!!!" My male us to try and sneak a feel from the anemone by swimming and staying underneath the anemone.
