Mike, I apologize if you are already in the know…I just don’t know of your knowledge of concrete.  A common mistake of novices is making the concrete too watery.  You don’t want to do this…it weakens the concrete.  Add water slowly and go for a stiff mix.  The concrete will still look...

I hope you’re not mixing that concrete by hand (that is, in a wheelbarrow with a hoe).  Your arms will be dead by the time you get to bag 7 or 8.  Go to your local rental place (or Home Depot…they rent as well) and rent the small barrel mixer (Electric..holds a bag of readimix).  Bring it right...

You're an attorney...tell me something I don't know!

Bill, I'm sending you a PM...any time after 3:30 tomorrow or any time the rest of the week.

Eric, I be at the meeting so I'll bring it along with me. See you then. Note, I have a bunch if anyone else would like some.

Harvested the upper 40 today and have a wad of cheato. If you need some, let me know.

Always do it by hand. I don't need any more tools!

Thanks for the link. I wouldn’t call it curing though. This guy is cleaning off any surface contaminants (which could be plastisizers, mold release agents, etc.) while also oxidizing the surface of the plastic. This guy would have been better off asking if you WASHED your plastic buckets before...

IC Gel from the group buy...the best!

I’m sorry…..do I know you? Hey, enjoy those kids…before you know it, they’re giving you crap, and asking for money.

What????  As a chemist, I need to ask one thing...cure what???? I apologize for the abrupt response, but unless the chemistry of plastics has changed in the past couple of years, it’s just a long chain organic compound that, once formed, has reached its final structure. It’s not like, as an...

Won’t work…….That happened when she said “I do.” Does that make you a dealer?? Sounds normal to me! The rent will be there next month, but the skimmer is needed now.

OK, it went through a few iterations, but the final fixture is option 1, all in a row, with the addition of 2 IceCap LED moonlights, for a total of eight bulbs. Here’s a picture with the 430 ballast bulbs not installed (bulb 2 and 5). And here it is on the tank…the timer on the left of the...

Well the tank and a few of the guppies are gone.  I can’t tell you who took it because he was just going out to pick up a loaf of bread and milk, and now the wife is looking to start a support group for addicts.  Go figure!  Anyway, his four kids will be happy with their new additions and...

Hi, my name is Paul and I’m a reef-a-holic. As with many of you, I first started with fresh, and before I knew it, that led to the hard stuff….salt. I tried the fresh-a-done program, but it’s not the same. Now I hooked and am ready for the ten steps. Come on Kelly…it could be worse. Every...

Steve, good point. I didn’t put in a disclaimer that water and electricity don’t mix. If you have no idea what you are doing, go buy the complete float switch assembly, making sure it can handle the voltage and draw of your pump. And yes, they make float switches to handle all voltages and amps.

Well, where are the pictures?

Ha, love it! An organic inorganic….what’s the term…oxymoron. Possible answers: 1. The Marketing folks liked the term? 2. It has another meaning to the consumer…other then the chemical term. It has as much meaning as “all natural”….cyanide and uranium are all natural!

Hey Mad, my wife’s hairdresser, who isn’t rolling in the dough, is looking for a three foot tank for her bearded dragon. I’m assuming this is a typical 75 gallon tank…four foot long. My wife is going to talk to her tomorrow to see if she would be interested. I’ll let you know. Thanks
