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 also have to work…bummer. :( But I did sign up for the meeting. :D I work outdoors and I’m hoping for hard and steady rain, because if it rains, I don’t work.
If I come, I’ll be bringing a Mexican Pizza with Chips. I will need to impose on our hosts and use your oven for a half hour to warm...
If you also need a new furnace, forget about the chimney and put in a high efficiency furnace that can be vented right out the side of the house…no chimney needed.
Mikem is the guy.
What do you know about Sunbright? A little red flag goes up in my mind when I see relatively low prices, no product details and price differentials that are minimal. Look at their 20 inch unit ($199) versus their 6 foot unit ($269)….only a $70 upcharge for more then four more feet of aluminum...
mfisher, good catch. I too went back and re-read, and the light could be the problem. So that's worth a look as well. However, the other possibility is that the light is acting at the ground to complete the circuit of something else in the tank. As I mentioned in the earlier post, use a VOM and...
All of these that you quote are readi-mixes that come with the sand/lime/stone, dependent on the mix. They are all the types you find at a Home Depot or Lowes. Portland is pure cement. You will need to mix it with other ingredients, dependent on what you are doing. Typically either sand or rock...
Unplug each and every submersible electrical thing you have in your tank/sump one at a time until you ID the thing that has the voltage leak…powerheads, return pumps, skimmer pumps, heaters, etc. Preferably you are using a VOM and not sticking you hand in the water to see if you still get that...
Any good masonry supply house would carry Portland-all grades. In Sayreville, we have Riverside Supply. But here’s the deal....it only comes in a 94 pound bags....still probably under $20.
I think the demo that was done at a meeting about 10-12 months ago (maybe merv???), he used hydraulic...
I agree with Nickjr….glass-holes.com….and you need that hyphen. I know I’ve sounded like a salesman for this company, but I’m impressed by the small size, relatively quiet, cost, customer support and the little surprise you receive in the box. We purchased the 1500gph for a 90 gallon tank...
To first answer your question in this last post, I believe a ¾ inch pipe off the overflow delivers 700 gph.
Now I agree with Magic that the skimmer section seems thin. Get rid of that one piece of acrylic (or glass) on the far left. Just have the filter sock in the corner with the skimmer in...
