ECFENCING on Manhattanreefs.com has a 75g 24x24x24 with starfire glass in the front for $220. Looks super sweet, too. Just fyi. ;)

What is this 'legal copy' you speak of? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ??? ;D

Sounds to me like your mobo took a dump. Of course, like has been said, it could be a bazillion different things...

Ed, question: We're trying to clear out a basement to have a new floor installed (hopefully heated floor...not sure yet) and then I'm going to build walls up against the brick. Just wondering if you could outline the process. I believe you'd put some plastic on the wall, then some foam...

Looks nice! As a shade-tree furniture builder, I would give you a word of advice on bonding and strength: Always use wood glue. Even if you just put a little on each joint and still use screws, it will be a helluva lot stronger. Generally a wood-glued joint is stronger than the wood around...

Thanks, guys. I ended up buying: 175w Hamilton Ballast 175w 14k Hamilton Bulb Mogul Socket and relfector And if I can ever get these dang cars running, I'll be building a nice canopy too! I'm pretty excited for the change to metal halide...I think the shimmer is 'the stuff'. :)

In all fairness, Harry, and nothing against you, any fish can have ich, and if it doesn't go through a proper qt, you take a risk. I learned that the hard way too.

:-X

That makes me sad to be a human.

I just purchased what I believe to be all the parts to a 175w metal halide setup, and that's pretty much what i bought. Well, also some wood, a few fans, 12v adapters for said fans. :)

I'm rereading the Incarnations of Immortality series by Piers Anthony right now. :)

I learned the hard way, as I think many do. I lost almost all my fish to a nasty ich breakout, it really sucked, and i ended up having to set up an entirely new tank to wait out the old one. Of course, then i broke down and sold all the parts of the old tank, sooo...I guess in the end it turned...

One of the biggest reasons to QT a fish before putting it in your tank is to reduce the chance of spreading infections to the tank itself. For example, say this fish had ich. You put him in your tank, the parasite lays the eggs, and they drop off into the rocks, the sand, etc. Now you have a...

Ok, just ordered the rest of the stuff from premium aquatics: 14k-175h 14k 175watt Hamilton Halide Bulb - mogule 1 $64.95 $64.95 REEF-LECTOR12 PFO 12" Optimal Perpendicular Reflector Only 1 $22.00 $22.00 LN-MOGULE Mogule Halide socket and bracket 1 $ 9.95 $ 9.95 So, $150 total for...

So, wait... You've spent all this time making sure everything is as perfect as possible, and you didn't QT that little guy for at least a few days..? ??? ???

Thanks for the reply. My replies...also in no particular order: I was thinking the reflector turned in the direction I first mentioned to better dispurse the light over the 30 inch wide tank. Which way gets the best dispersion: the sides of the relector or the front/back of the bulb? My guess...

Hey guys, I recently decided to give halides a shot, and got such a good deal on a ballast that I'm going to build a hood. But...I have some questions. First I'll outline my (tentative plans) I'm planing on making the thing out of wood. I have some pine left over from my entertainment stand...

Sounds remotely like a sun coral...not sure about the hanging upside down part, though...

Hey kids, I decided I'd like to replace the unknown age bulbs in my Hamilton hood, which consists of 4x german-pinned 55w CF bulbs. The cheapest I found is straight from Hamilton, for $25 each, with another $10ish for shipping. That's $110 for just bulbs, which will last what...6 months? So...

HA! How's it feel to be that old? ;) HAPPY BDAY!
