  1. What sand are you using? What is your live rock load like? If you have a heavier silica based sand as opposed to a more carbonaceous sand, you won't have quite the buffering capacity.
  2. If you're using RODI, your unit will be stripping out essentially everything anyway. Softened water will extend the life of your filters and membranes however. And yes, i believe standard softener installs cover all water coming in to the house.
  3. It's basically just in "intank" sump created with a false back. I have something similar in a Biocube29. You can stick your skimmer/heater/misc stuff back there to keep it from cluttering the tank.
  4. youre probably looking at ~300-400 for a decent used entry level dslr with kit lens. http://tinyurl.com/7hy95m9

  6. Always better to oversize a pump and valve it down than to have a pump at 100% capacity and be insufficient. The one caveat is that a larger mag will add more heat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. sounds neat. How are you gonna capture the blazing actinics with B/W ?
  8. So it connects to the router via 802.11 b/g/n and then you just log into it? That's pretty cool. Let us know how that goes (if you get it). Yep. I swear, with my thermostat, apex, all my wireless devices (iphones, ps3, wii, etc) it is amazing that I can stream a video with all that bandwidth chugged away.
  9. http://www.amazon.com/Dropcam-Wi-Fi-Wireless-Monitoring-Camera/dp/B006P88VSE/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1335379145&sr=1-1 Here's one that is pretty much ready to go out of the box for web/mobile monitoring. I'm debating between this and a PTZ cam with video server (more complicated/expensive but better video quality).
  10. The most productive sign for fragging is a naked looking tank (trades) or an empty wallet (sales)!
  11. No kidding, the box fish were *amazing*. If only they didn't have that pesky self-destruct issue...The 3-tier tank was great, and the top tank 19.99 frags we're very compelling deals. Well done.
  12. What is the make/model of the camera george? There are quite a few 3rd party apps that might run your server/cam setup.
  13. There are about a thousand ways to do it. Easiest IMO is to get a wifi cam and integrate it into your network. I'm Pondering using the wireless bridge I'm using for my apex to host a regular Ethernet cam. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. I've been flashed a lot of things over the years but an ARC card would be a 1st. lol HAHAHAHAHA! I bet! I wonder if it's too late for me to get into law enforcement....
  15. Kind of a sidenote/hijack here, but I used some flatworm exit in my tank last week to prevent a possible contamination (idiot me didn't dip a frag that other members said might have some FW, don't worry this wasn't at the frag swap). It *decimated* my snail population, even with carbon and a sizable water change. Just something to consider, as I place a reef cleaners ad.
  16. I'll make sure and flash my ARC card anytime i get pulled over in georgetown, just in case.... oh THIS isn't my driver's license...
  17. righteous! didn't know if it was a "getting out" or moving sale as opposed to a tank upgrade sale.
  18. Any other tank changes recently? Lighting? Livestock additions? I've got a dremel and could help you frag it if you're willing to come south (oak hill).
  19. yeah, he was looking for a bigger one.
