    Anyone seen JLEM? Is he still building stands?

    A canopy could probably be shipped pretty easy unstained if it was shipped in pieces. It litteraly would only be about 6 pieces if you wanted the front door and you put it together with just a screw driver and some wood glue if you chose to use glue. Shipping probably would not be more than 40...

    moving tank question

    The corals should be fine for a day or two. I moved for california to washington about 5 years ago and my system was without artificial light for 3 or four days.

    some pics of 125 reef and frag tank

    Thought I would post some current pics of my 4 yr old 125 gallon reef. The large pieces of gray rock are recent aragocrete additions. I have a few other large pieces of DIY live rock that I added about a year ago and now look identical to the Live rock from the Ocean. The Anename that the...

    just added 4 more pounds of lr today help

    If the rock was cured then it should speed up your cycle because any additional die off will be quickly taken care of by the beneficial bacteria that you added in with the 4 lbs

    stands, canopies and now live rock

    Well I build stands and canopies for fun and now am diving into the Aragocrete rock project. I made my first batch today and if all goes well I'll post the process with pics when I do the next batch. About 1/4 of my current setup is aragocrete that a friend gave me and you can't even tell...

    Anyone seen JLEM? Is he still building stands?

    It would cost alot to ship. Price without shipping for an Oak 2 door stand and matching 1 door canopy with lifting top would be about $250.00 stained and sealed. I don't know if I could do it but I could precut and drill all of the pieces and all you would do is screw it together. Shipping...

    Anyone seen JLEM? Is he still building stands?

    I actually just finished a 100 gallon stand for an acrylic tank that I picked up used. The threads that I did on building them lost all the pictures when the site switched over to the new look.

    Canister filters

    Canisters work great for fish only or reef systems. The problem is that to keep them working properly and not just trap gunk that breakes down and creates high nitrates and poor water quality you have to clean them pretty often. If you clean a canister filter often enough then you will do your...

    Cycled Water In Ct

    Water has nothing to do with cycling. Matter of fact water from a cycled tank would be worse than freshly mixed saltwater because it would be of worse water quality than new water and may have free floating parasites or other nasty stuff. It's the bacteria on the live rock and sand that keeps...

    180G Stand Pics?

    Considering that 99% of store bought stands have nothing but the 3/4 inch sides for strenth and those even come with warrenties you would be more than fine with 2X4's.

    DO I need more Iodine for my mushroom

    You need to test for iodine and then dose if you want to. You should never dose anything without testing first even if the label gives a dpsing amount.

    picture of stand and canopy

    The stand would look similar but have 2 large doors and have the nice round over trim around the doors unless you like the large door trim

    picture of stand and canopy

    Here is the canopy that I would like to build you. Instead of the bulky trim around the doors though I would use simple round over trim which would look very smooth and really nice
