    Solderless WaveMaker Mystery?

    I think this beats Malulu's "Wavemaker made easy" (http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=13714.msg127369#msg127369) because this one doesn't require any soldering. Now if only I could figure it out! The sump was overfilled because salinity was a little off...

    Is my tank cycled already?

    It certainly helps putting in established rock, but five days..... Sit back, relax, wait some more. The general run is going slow wins the race. If you're in to potentially killing things (I'm not), you can pick up a cheap fish and throw in it there and pray.

    Ground Probes - to have or not to have?

    This has been discussed in the past and there are mixed feels about using them. Try using the search area above to find the old posts. If stray voltage has no were to go, there is no current flow. Once you throw a probe in there, you now have completed the circuit for current to flow...i.e. you...

    Icecap 175watt MH Ballast

    No experience with MH, but do have IceCap T5 units. With T5's, IceCap overdrives the bulbs. Is this possibly the case with MH as well? If they are being overdriven, than that's the reason for the color difference.

    dosing vodka?

    I won't comment whether or not it works. In a nutshell, what it purportedly does is supply a food source for the bacteria to proliferate, thereby reducing you nitrogen waste products (ammonia/nitrite/nitrate).

    75 Gallon Tank and Stand Build

    Welcome. By the way, I too like the idea of doors on the end to easily move the sump in and out. One comment on your stand build...it appears the upper frame, which will hold the tank, is supported by the fasteners only (probably screws), through the upright 2x4's. You really don't want the...

    JUNE MEETING: Saturday the 27th Kendall Park

    Crap! Another weekend refereeing soccer games down in Neptune. Unfortunately I won't be able to make this months meeting. I think at this point John and Bill will have stuff from three group buys for me or Jon....GFH, Glue and Bags and stuff from PA. I'll have to make arrangements.

    Scratches in glass

    I have no idea if it would work, but how about those scratch/chip fillers for auto glass. They sell for about ten bucks. I know it's base on acrylates (similar to one-drop super glues). Have no idea how it would hold up on a tank...salt water.

    Need help with Glass

    I haven't seen a sandpaper that could withstand glass. I'd be curious as to how you make out. I'd actually try grinding it using a wheel for glass...with great care not to over heat the spot being ground (keep the grinder moving). As far as drilling...just make sure the glass isn't tempered...

    One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish, by Dr. Seuss Contains everything you would ever need to know, whether you have one fish or two fish, and regardless if they are red or blue. Sorry, couldn't resist! ;D

    Are ice cap 660 ballasts dimable?

    I speak with great ignorance, but I don't think any fluorescent bulb is dimable. EDIT TO ADD: Just searched dimable fluorescent bulbs and found that dimable compact flourescent bulbs are available. Proves my ignorance!

    Lighting Upgrade? Or leave it alone?

    Rafal, those lights looks extremely interesting. I'm curious as to how this all works as well...please keep us informed. A couple notes about sales of LED lights in the United States - The manufacturers of Solaris (PFO Lighting) have been sued by Orbital Technologies Corporation for patent...
