    Anyone know how to get rid of a skunk?

    We had the same issue with skunks getting under our house, did some research and found that taking some rags and pouring ammonia on them then leaving the rags around were the skunks go would get rid of them, the ammonia makes them think there is a fox around and they leave, it worked for us, no...

    plumbing for multiple tanks

    (If you design the system as if it's one big tank and leave enough room in the sump for back flow, you should be fine.) This statement was ment only for designing the backflow if the pump goes down. I understand your logic with the discharge. I will try and explain better what I'm talking...

    plumbing for multiple tanks

    I have to agree with you on this one Joe. A pressure relief valve will not work. you have at least five open ended lines, there should be very little pressure build up in the line, just velocity, if a line gets pluged the velocity will increase in the other lines. You want to have a bigger line...

    Use sump or filter(s) on 37g?

    sump/fuge if you don't want to drill you can always do a hang-on overflow, drilling would be much better, but for the return you can just run it over the top, no need to drill for it, just one hole for the supply.

    MH 800w 10000k on a 90gal tank

    Well that answers my question, although Not what I wanted to hear, Looks like the best solution is to sell the existing system and buy a lighting system with smaller wattage, I think what we have is way overkill for this small of tanks.

    Happy Birthday 125

    Well I looked up the pavola and it is actually called povona, Sounds almost like cheese. Ok I'll just leave them unmounted, except for maybe the tort, I will probably frag it and mount it on a piece of rock and let it set in the tank for about a week, just to make sure it aclimates from the...
