Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
It's going to take a little longer than this weekend. If you want to do this yourself or with fellow reefers, can you give some more details and pictures so someone here can help you design it? Then you can get the parts ready. Two one inch drains with glass holes overflow might be noisy for...
I never hatched brine shrimp before so I tried the first time 2 days ago. I used 2/3 tank water and 1/3 RO. What surprised me was that the hatched brine shrimps are tiny compare to the big lives one from LFS. Are there two different kind of brines or the one from the store are grown adults?
We have a GE Cafe for 6 months now. No problem. Bottom drawer/french door to replace a 20+ years old fridge. What we found out there is less room with the modern fridges. Bout a beverage refrigerator too helps a lot with the space issue.
All these talk about clam juice makes me hungry. Now I am wondering if I dose the clam juice from the supermarket (you know the type you cook your clam sauce for linguini) is just as good as acropower or even better.

This is > many people's dream tank. Let me know if you need a hand for anything.

I found my infrared temp gun to be quite serviceable. I compare the result with apex probe it's always within 1 degree. That's good enough for me. I use it to check the temp in the QT tank and saltwater reservoir.
I have the same one in mikes link. There are so many use for this thing around...
My cc was stolen to buy an apple computer last DEC. Wondering if it was because of this. Got the letter and I do appreciate the $50 protection program. It's probably good time to buy some stock in these online security companies, it's only going to get worse.
