    Help with a rebuild!

    Hi! I am doing well. Finger is feeling pretty good and It seems to be healing. I wrap it only when I go to bed at night and I am trying to start using my finger again, slowly. I can feel that the muscles are tight. I don't want to over due it. It's a really odd feeling when I manage to grip...

    Help with a rebuild!

    Quills (Corey, isn't it?) - I am not familiar with this strainer you speak of. What is that? do you buy these or build these? I am able to move the scrubber screen down and I will but I will definitely look into drilling some type of slits or something so that pressure can be relieved when...

    Help with a rebuild!

    I just cut it using a dremel. Even when the slot gets a little clogged, it still has really good coverage on the screen. Its just squirting like the tiniest amount of water out of one side or some place random. It'll start as soon as I go to bed and then be that way all night. Last night, from...

    Help with a rebuild!

    On an unrelated note, I am going to rebuild my algea scrubber. It works great and I already have tons of brown growth on the screen. However, nearly every morning, I get up and the slit that feeds the water to the screen is plugged and has been shooting water out of the tank all night. Because...

    Help with a rebuild!

    Hahaha exaclty. This happened last tuesday... I am going nuts!! Just so there is no confusion, I got this cut at work, not from my tank. (For anyone skimming this thread.) But yes. I will DEF NOT be putting this hand into my tank until it is completely healed up. That is a good way to get some...

    Help with a rebuild!

    Here are some pictures I just took today. Seriously, I don't think this is healed enough to just leave it open... but what do I know? I had been wrapping it (like they did when it first happened) with the blue tape all the way up and down. I want the area to get oxygen but I don't want stuff...

    Our Nuvo 8

    Thanks! Yeah. I noticed when I ran my last 150 in a different room (a spare room right off the main area, the door is just visible right behind the 60 cube) I didn't spend much time on it. I didn't notice quickly enough when corals fell or things weren't running just so... I missed a lot of the...

    Help with a rebuild!

    Sip- I wish I could just relax like that... I am the type that can only relax so much. I relax and then think the world is gonna end, which is stressful. I wish I was not so nausea all the time, otherwise, a scotch and pastry would be lovely. The last 48 hours I have been this way... I think...

    Help with a rebuild!

    Kiefers! I am so glad you know what I am talking about... Okay so when I first went, They put steri strips on it. When I went back they removed them and said do antibiotic ointment, wash it in antiseptic and change the dressing (this was on Saturday). When I went today, They said to keep it...
