  1. I just ordered a Salifert as backup along with more reagent... Good call! Sounds like the reagent I had a month ago that was reading my 13 dkh as 5.... Smh Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Some people/companys use programs to scan websites for phone numbers so they can sell your info to companies for tellamarketing or fraud. Not sure of any other reasons Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Yes it is?.... Idk what you were trying to post Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. So I would need something like this Top Drawing is the Overflow from the top. The Half Circle Baffle would sit above the Bulkhead which causes the Water to not fall as far and remove noise, as well as force the water around so it's not falling directly into the Bulkhead as it's doing right now. The second drawing is the "Inside" of the Overflow. I think I'll need some rod feet for the baffle since there's nothing for the baffle to sit on like on the glass holes version. It would funnel the water with less splashing and gurgle. Just need to find somewhere/someone to make some for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Ok, Looked at the Glass Holes overflow.... its basically the same type of setup as me. And is silent. The difference is the 3/8 tubing as the vent.. and they have a baffle that goes into the box and sits on top of the Bulkhead to severely reduce noise. Literally just a piece of Acrylic that's the shape of the Overflow but small enough to go inside so you can't see it and blocks the water falling noise from the top. Where could I get something Made/Cut for me to a custom Size and oval shape to match my overflows?
  6. Hmm, so I'd zip tie the line to the return lines maybe so if it did, it goes in the tank... Seems gaudy.... hopefully there's a better way. I've seen some that just have the drilled hole and no air line.... Would that work? Idk Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. So I wasn't using big enough tubing maybe? I used the standard rodi tubing. I pushed them down until it seemed they were pulling air, then id randomly hear water hitting the floor every now and then and it was coming from the line id stuck in there. I'll take a peek at the glass holes overflow in a bit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Ok guys.... I have to figure out how to silence my Fishy Business overflow. Bulkheads lead to a 90 which goes down with flex pvc. I do have a nice hate valve on each line The sound comes from the gurgle right at the bulkhead in the over flow. https://vimeo.com/152970485 I tried rodi like from the top of the 90s, once I had a siphon, I sometimes had water coming out of the tops somehow. So I siliconed those holes shut for now pending a new solution. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Several large tangs is quite the understatement. Well I didn't feel like counting...... Geez hahaha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  11. I feed every other day 2 ice cube tray portions of Rods and alternating mysis and PE mysis.. And have an auto feeder running once a day feeding NLS Thera+ Pellets. I have several Large Tangs, a puffer, 6 Anthias, 2 Foxfaces, 3 Clown Fish, a Flame Angel, and a Red Coris Wrasse. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Light and Tunze still available!
  13. I think my Tank will be ready to host the April 16th Meeting!...... Girlfriend approved. Maybe ARC can supply Crawfish and we turn it into a party?!
  14. We'll see if that fixes it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. I think I'll take you up on that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Doesn't that mean you have to have an air stone sitting in your tank all the time Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. Apparently Vortech Backup Batteries only last about 3-5 years before having to be replaced.... I was prompted to ask when I was organizing cords and the Backup didn't kick in when I unplugged the vortechs. Didn't plan for that expense...
  18. I saw this a long time ago seems neat, but I would probably not purchase. But that's me.
  19. Just to Clarify, I need a Float Switch.. Not a Float Valve.
  20. Is there anywhere in town that sells Horizontal Float Switches or anyone who has an extra?
  21. You can get 22 or 23 awg ethernet wire which is nice because it has 4 pairs in a single housing, 23 is way more common. There is 18 and 20 awg but they tend to get expensive and can be very stiff depending on the shielding and if they're solid or stranded. Can also find 2 or 8 pair ethernet wire as well. Realistically with the low voltage in this case, I don't think you need anything close to 22 awg wire unless you're running it a long distance where the lower gauge wire's resistance becomes a factor. It would be extended maybe 7-8 Feet.
  22. Never mind, It says 22 gauge on BRS.
  23. Ok so I got everything installed. I was thinking of adding a float switch in my ATO container to let me know when it needs refilling. However, the ATO is waay too far away to install as i'd purchase it. What type of wire would I use to extend it?
