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.
Over the 90 I have two old school Apollo’s….non-dimable.
Over the JBJ-28 a “Chinese” fixture just like the Reefbreeder or the the Evergrow 120d. The only thing I can say is that these new Chinese fixtures are not the fixtures of the past. My biggest complaint about older Chinese fixtures...
Wire Framing????
You don’t want to use any metal in the tank. What I’ve seen used is plastic rod with epoxy. You drill holes in the rock with a masonary bit and install the plastic rod with some epoxy. An inexpensive rod that works well is clothes hangers. Just cut the hangers into...
A 110 volt float switch is very expensive….in excess of $60. I would recommend running a low voltage switch through a relay to run the Aqualifter pump. Aquahub makes a nice little kit that comes with everything you’ll need. I used the “premium” kit to make my ATO. And I use an Aqualifter...
So I finished putting the molding on the stand and plenty of wood filler. After a good sanding, I started priming. I had the stand lying on its back. My wife walks in and says, “When I die I want you to make a little window in my coffin, just like this coffin, so I can look out.” So now...
One more thing....you don't want that real thin window pane glass like you find at HD or Lowes. I would suggest a minimum of 3/16 inch glass (ca 5 mm).
1. Decide the height of your baffles.....consider wash-back volume from the DT when the pumps are off.
2. Decide on the size of each section.....skimmer sized to fit....return section.....refugium.
3. Consider if you wish to add a sock.
4. Have the glass cut 1/16 less than the inside width of...
You need to actually have a reservoir of water so that the bit is sitting in water. I would think simply spraying would cause for hot spots, that once wetted, would cool too quickly and cause it to crack. If you had a drill guide (which I highly recommend), add a little plumber’s putty to the...
I originally was a Koralia believer. I had the old school K4’s and complained, like everyone else, of them starting in reverse. But they were reliable, and other then the reverse thing, were good powerheads. They ran forever.
The Evolutions came out….I bought four….and thought the...
I can’t comment on kalkwasser…..never have used it and probably never will.
HOWEVER, a number of people have suggested using two part. You can buy this at any LFS, online, or make your own. I would also suggest you add testing for magnesium and dose accordingly.
You have a...
Kevin, if you come up to Sunny's I'll bring my PC (netbook) for you to do whatever you need to do......assuming I could get online at Sunny's if that is required.
