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.
I'm not actually using a controller at the moment. Just a heater and a seperate digital thermometer.
Thanks, I'll check that one out. Is 500 watt overkill for 120 gallon? I know it's overkill for a 55. :D
Anyone close to the deep south have some chaeto they wanna off? I figure it's probably about time I put something in my refugium space besides rock rubble. ;D
If you are facing the tank, the heater is in the far right back corner. The tunze 6045 sits on the right wall, and the first probe is in the front right corner, about half way down.
The second probe is on the left back corner. My hydor koralia sits about half way up and half way fron to back on...
I'm running a nova extreme 4x54 watt HO T5 fixture with a fan in it, and the top of the tank is open.
Strange thing is, the temp will read 81.5, and the stoopid heater will kick on, but sometimes when the temp reads 79.8, it doesn't kick on.
Plus, I'm getting two different temperatures at...
Anyone ever use these?

I'm having a heck of a time stabilizing the temp in my tank as of late. Temp swings from 79 to 82 over the course of the day. I even went so far as to put...
I used PVC cement on all my plumbing. And believe me, I got more than a little inside, outside, on me! LOL!
I just let it dry until I couldn't smell it anymore, ran water through it, and hooked it up. No issues so far!
I miss that car. :'( 1970 fastback (mach I style, but not an actual mach). I pulled the 302 out of it and put the 429 in it. Got it out of a Grand Torino GT I think. Had like 30,000 miles on it. You know the story, little old lady, car in the garage, blah blah blah. I tuned it with the super CJ...
Wow! Muscle still exists? I would love to replace my 70 stang. I had a 70 with a 429 super CJ for a couple years out of high school, but then kids came and I was sent to the world of hatch backs and mini-vans. I drive a 2000 Chrysler LHS now, but I would love to get my hands on a new mustang GT...
ROFL! That's great.
Wow, I'm not the only star wars fan? Kewl...
While I am a star wars fan, this was just entirely too funny (mainly because george lucas drives me nuts).

Seems most tanks are aga or oceanic.
This is a response from oceanic:

Ok, I found this on a website, anyone have some polarizing filters? ;D

Bery interwesting... Hmm.. Will have to research that.
Thanks Jazz. Where are you located? I'm still not sure if I can get the tank on Sunday or will have to wait until next weekend. Still waiting for the guy to get back to me.
hehe. Yeah, it WAS a nice truck. It's about 17 years old now! Runs like a champ, but looks like hell in a hand basket! LOL! Plus, that giant V8 just sucks down the gas. Especially at $2.25 a gallon! OUCH!
Thanks Gabe. Appreciate the offer. I'm WAAAAAAAAAAAY down south. ;D I'm about 45 minutes west of atlantic city and about an hour south of Philly.
Allentown is about 2 to 2 1/2 hours from me (maybe 3 depending on traffic).
I THINK I can bum my dad's truck for the day, it will just murder me on...
