  1. I feel better now. Still trying to get my friggin sig to work correctly...
  2. I'm pondering supplementing the algae growth with something else. A small square of nori every few days?
  3. No me gusta, sir. It's hard to justify the cost for a heater controller (apex, etc) but all it takes is one wipeout to make you change your mind. Godspeed.
  4. The sell it at grainger. I've used this stuff on some of my treatment systems, not sure if it is reef safe though. http://www.grainger.com/Grainger/DOW-CORNING-Valve-Lubricant-and-Sealant-6Y762?Pid=search
  5. So i picked up an emerald crab at RCA during their first friday (BEER AND CAKE, ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!). The more I read, the more I am concerned he is going to nip on my mushrooms and zoas. He has been hanging out on some rhodactis that I have, and it is making me uneasy. What are y'all experiences?

    You are correct, this is a big no-no.
  7. So wait, you went to Ikea twice? Willingly? My respect grows.
  8. I can probably swing that. Shoot me a reminder text at like 1030. ill pm you my phone number.
  9. oh i have the iphone app and use it religiously. i didnt get a display unit. thanks for the tip!
  10. You are the mcguyver of QT tanks. Looks great bro.
  11. I don't see any reason to seed it. Since it is essentially barren, it should colonize as if you were adding dry rock to a tank. Very cool and exciting!
  12. bump for a great price on ecotechs. if you don thave them you need them.
  13. I could potentially help depending on time. I live south. When were you thinking?
  14. can you post the code to get your apex to show in your sig?
  15. Lookin good. I've got a Jackson myself. They're trouble makers i tell ya! Tank looks like it is progressing nicely. WRT to LED dimming, are you using a standalone controller or an apex?
  16. hahaha. did management (wife) get on you about it??
  17. really good little skimmer. did you upgrade your nano?
  18. My gut reaction is to buy a bigger pump and just neck down the output. The engineers fuss at you for doing that though
  19. Now if you can just make me a mini apex out of acrylic, we can call it a day.
  20. I think you've probably got some weird hydrodynamics happening with the multiple lengths of pipes + elbows. Something like this might mitigate that. 2" PVC in with 6- 3/4 inch pieces out.
  21. Simple but effective. Looking forward to build pics
  22. What aquifier are you getting chlorinated solvents from? I use Trinity Aquifier water straight out of the ground into my reef tanks.Why does ground water have chlorinated solvents? Patrick Surficial aquifers. You would be astounded at the quantity of shallow groundwater contamination that we have statewide as a result of heavy industry and oil and gas production. Luckily it only rarely affects the deep stuff that we use for water supply. And to answer the why, it was standard operating procedure to store wastewater in unlined pits.
