I have a five foot tank and am in need of a canopy. Would you be willing to give up just the canopy? If not, I’ll take it all and continue to see if I could fine someone to take the base. Where are you located and could you post a picture (specifically of the canopy)? I would like the height...

Geeze Paul, I was following along with your story, and had a couple chuckles about reading instructions and bacteria with big noses…..and then I got to the last line, and you lost me. How does this work? Do you approach a lady and say, “How would you like to come back to my place and I’ll let...

That is an excellent point. I’m willing to bet this is what actually happened. I can’t see that apartment wired with at least 10 gauge wiring. The wiring, as well as the outlets and switches, are most likely for 15 or 20 amp service. I’m not sure what getting in an electrician is...

What I’m reading is that they are not so much concerned about the big blow in our area as they are about the amount of rain. One model predicts as much as 11 to 12 inches of rain…..major flooding. Now, were did I leave those plans for the Ark, and what the heck is a cubit?

Wow! I’d move. Simply put, that apartment is not wired for today’s appliances. I’d almost be afraid to see the wiring….wouldn’t be a bit surprised to find knob and tube. I think Tony (shipwrecked) said it, you cannot run the stuff you’re running on that electrical system. You’re lucky...

I’m a little confused. Are you saying your entire apartment is supplied by 3, 30 amp breakers? If that is the case, 30 amp is not the norm. They require 10 gauge wire….very thick (and expensive), as well as 30 amp switches, plugs etc.. The norm for “regular” house wiring/circuits is 15...

It’s been a while since I’ve cracked the code book, but if I remember correctly, your microwave should be on a dedicated circuit. If you put that on it’s own circuit, you should be good to go.

Brandon, have you seen my soldering gun. It’s so old, you almost have to rub two sticks together to get it hot. But it does come with two lights on the front, so you can solder in the dark. :) I think the last thing it soldered was a vacuum tube in an extremely large Stromberg Carlson...

Since the guests are not “logged in,” they shouldn’t have posting rights, so their “time out” should be set to zero…..or am I missing something with that explanation….George, I only have a little sense.

I believe the natural order of Armageddon is earthquake, hurricane, and then followed by a swarm of locusts. :o

Brandon, I pretty much don’t know much about anything, but 120 watts of LEDs over a 34 gallon tank seems like a bit much, unless you plan on mounting this fixture directly to the ceiling. These fixtures do not come with variable adjustment. Maybe someone with knowledge can chime in on this...

What did you do differently between the first and second calc test? That is, what do you have to be “careful” about?

Oh, I like John’s, so let me say Happy Birthday Baby, and John better make sure you have a great day. Enjoy!

Well, I’m Irish! I know what all of you are now thinking, “Boy those Irishmen are the world’s greatest lovers.” Well besides being the world’s greatest lovers, I’ve heard once….maybe twice….that we are also known for drinking. I know, hard to believe. So to solve this conundrum...

So what’s up will all these “guests” on our site? Is that number for real? Is anyone else sort of bugged by this number? As Jerry Seinfeld would say, “Who are these people?” The old site would typically only show a few guests. Is this all these tapatalk people tapping away?

Wow, this stinks. You had all those great “thank you” posts and they go and reload the forum, loosing all that good stuff. I think it’s a conspiracy. :o Anyway, thanks again for another great meeting….nice new house and FOUR tanks.

George, my deepest sympathy. I can give you the name of my therapist. :) Tony, I had a laugh at this one, but the difference between you and me is that I’d have to change my pants after that one!

Bob, you’ve got to stop going out for those liquid lunches. :o Didn’t feel a thing here! :D Actually there’s a thread already started on this found here.

Dave, that article must have been written after the first quake. In searching for the info on OUR quake, I ran across a story that the quakes continued through the night and into the morning in Colorado, with a total of eight quakes. The tectonic plates are a-movin’, that’s for sure. I’m a...
