    A Tribute and a Farewell to my fallen friend and family member

    I'm sure Simon was glad that at the end of the day - he was counting his lucky stars to have had such a great family like yours to take care of him.

    Durso Pipes / Bulkheads...or Megaflow?

    GRRRRR! ;) thanks all - I'm going to swing by a hardware store - see if I can't help my local shop a bit (may as well help boost revenue in my town) and if that doesn't work - i'll just order something from the durso website.

    Durso Pipes / Bulkheads...or Megaflow?

    ok - so I see on that link they actually sell pre-fab durso pipes...hehe so this won't be exactly a DIY project. My questions are now as follows: Does it matter if I should choose threaded or slip bulkheads? Does it matter whether I choose "Cleaned" or standard PVC? Finally - what are the...

    Durso Pipes / Bulkheads...or Megaflow?

    Thanks...it took me less than an hour to read... ;D So uh...next question. How do you know how long to cut the pvc pipe (section 6)? The tank is 24" in height. Also - how do you actually cut pvc? Do I go into the kitchen and grab my wife's henkels knives and have at it? :o or do I need like...

    Durso Pipes / Bulkheads...or Megaflow?

    So...I'm still in the planning stages and thinking if I should drop the $100 on two megaflow accessories - or if someone here can help me save some money by guiding me on how to DIY by getting the pvc at a "borg" store (aka home depot/lowes etc). Part of me really doesn't want to mess around...

    not sure - but i imagine any warranty that was on the tank would be voided. Though I imagine a lot of us customize tanks... ::)

    Annularis popEYE

    Actually if you think about it - aquaculture was the result of people who really were fed up with pillaging the ocean. I think that concept started up back in the 80s and now of course when people eat dinner "farmed salmon" doesn't even make people blink twice. Of course "farming" the ocean has...

    Seems like a waste of a perfectly good reef tank

    i was thinking what happens when the attorney decides to leave the practice and join something else...I guess im ambivalent - it seems like the tank is desired to show off - not necessarily because he cares about the critters inside. This tank in florida really wowed me (speaking of sharks) -...

    Tank Placement - 72 Gallon Bow - Suggestions?

    Interesting read - thanks for the link! Too bad the All-glass link is dead - since they were taken over by aqueon - you'd think some web-nut would know to at least forward it to the new page. Personally I think the article should re-assure you since he didn't think an extra joist is needed...

    ID? tentacles coming from rock at night??

    hmm - these are my micro stars.... I think yours are just regular brittle stars. Did you try and spot feed? Usually when I put a small piece of shrimp/silversides - the star will try and pull it into the LR to eat. Also if you re-aquascape, I bet there is a good chance that simply lifting the...

    Start of my aquapod - help as i progress

    maybe you need a half dozen of the pom poms - then on any given night you'll see one of them! ;) They are neat looking - now I have to go google and get more info. I was thinking my next tank would be "crab-less" but waldo makes me think otherwise. ;D

    Start of my aquapod - help as i progress

    I just re-read this entire string...the snail may either be a sundial - but more likely in my opinion to be a colonista - I've had tons of those - no harm whatsoever. Look it up and see if it matches your snail. image courtesy of melev. oh and really early on you were asking about an unknown...

    Need help finding furniture!

    Have you tried the cranbury outlet for C&B? I never went in (only to pick up an item) but you could always look up online and have them deliver it to the Cranbury warehouse for pick up later. Save on the shipping costs. Of course - for the price of the wall unit at C&B - you could also probably...

    ID?! Yellow sponge? palys?

    May sound dumb but when I read this I was like - I don't see the mantis in the tank - what am I missing here...??? then I looked at your userid...DUH! ;D

    Sandry 75 Nice tank and great pics - I like the bangai cardinal detail! In the past you had two other tanks - any more updated pics of those? Or did you take those down to set this one up?

    coral store locations in nj?

    welcome! how did you find the forum? Curiosity aside, are you near NY? are you "just north" of interstate 78? Or are you all the way over by PA? If you are closer to the GWB side - I'd send you over the bridge to do some window shopping - maybe at Petqua on the upper west side or new world...

    A Milestone and an Observation

    congratulations!!! On your last comment - I picked up a 120 but haven't had the time/resources to get it set up yet...so it sits empty. I'm hoping in the next few months to line up the appropriate items and then be ready for the 2008 frag swap! Though it is tough to avoid the temptation of...
