    So it begins - The greatest storm of our times?

    I just got back from a visit to the Raritan River....and this is at least 24 hours before the storm hits....and about three hours before high tide. The water is at the max for our boat ramps. Another three or four inches and you can't get onto the boat ramps without getting wet feet. THIS...

    Natural Gas Generator

    My next-door neighbor owns a bar/restaurant and is considering putting in a natural gas generator with a transfer switch. I know some of you folks have done the same for your tanks/house. Who does this kind of thing? Any recommendations on the contractors who do this would be appreciated.

    Batten down the hatches....

    Just got the robo-call that our school system will be closed both Monday and Tuesday. Stay safe folks.

    Yet another 2-part dosing question

    +1 and if my little brain remembers, I think you have a 75g DT and I would start with somewhere around 25 mls per day of each part.

    Heat and flow.

    WOW that hurt! Guess I should've fixed that!

    Don, this is serious stuff. The tingle tells you to LOOK AT ME NOW! Glad you are OK. Start unplugging to find the culprit. I’d start with your heaters. They are always on the top of my list. Find it and get it out!

    Heaters

    Here’s my suggestion…..never……never…..just trust the controls on a heater to heat your tank. Did I say never enough? You need to use a controller with your heater to make sure that when it malfunctions….and it will……it doesn’t cook your tank. I’ve cooked one tank, and that’s what...

    Anyone have any aquascaping tips or tricks to share?

    Geeze Jim, are you sure this is true? I’ve always thought the rock-work looked closer because I had my face pressed up against the tank! :grin:

    I picked mine up at Sam’s Club in Edison….I think $299. It’s now staged on my porch just waiting…..

    What the he ** is wrong with kids these days? I just read about that girl in Clayton

    Phil, I’m at a loss for this one as well. And the 15 and 17 year old knew that 12 year old girl as well. I just don’t understand kids today. I’m at a loss. I sympathize with the little girl’s family as well as the family of the two kids who killed this poor little girl. What a pity...

    Well I have redbugs. :mad:

    If your willing and able to QT your sps, I’d first dip them (10 – 15 minutes) in Bayer Advance Complete Insect Killer…..8 mls per liter of tank water. And I’d do that every week for at least three weeks. This stuff doesn’t kill eggs, so that’s why you have to do it over a three week period...

    Thoughts on Ground Probes

    YOU are not OK, but your tank is. When YOU stick your hand into that "electrified" tank, you now become the ground, and the current flows......through you.

    Thoughts on Ground Probes

    Controversial…..Here’s my two cents…..and I’ve felt the tingle. You have volts and you have current. The presence of voltage without current is like a bird sitting on a wire…..loads of voltage, but nowhere to go. This is like your tank with a voltage leak….without a ground. Current is...

    whats the paintman been up to???????????

    They look like the "Chinese" LED's folks talk about. My only concern would be if they had aluminum cooling plates inside. If not, I'd be a bit leery. Take a look at Apollo LED's.....assembled here in the USA...with cooling aluminum....assembled right here in PA.....with knockout PAR.

    The 210 tank build

    Sweet!

    Help!!!!!!

    If the leak is sooooo slow you can see it, try wrapping paper towels around areas you think leaks are coming from. Then look for wet paper towels.
