    Eheim Jager Heaters

    They are fully submergible. They are no different in construction than when they were made by Ebo-Jager. The only difference is the name on the heater, all assembly and construction is identical. The reason is Ebo was bought by Eheim, and are now called Eheim Jager, some of the earlier...

    What do you do when your power goes out?

    We don't do nothing at all..........the gen set / controller does it all. Its on an auto start /auto shut off controller, so if power goes out for more than 10 minutes the gen set starts and puts the entire house on gen power. When power comes back online, the gen set shuts off power to house...

    Reporting *****

    I reported ***** here on two occasions and both times they responded and handled the complaint within short order and did it reasonably. First thing is however is talk to the top store manager in that store, not a dept manager or assocated manager, but the one in charge of that store. If that...

    directv vs. dish

    Had direct, switched to dish, now back with direct. Dish just does not cut it. We used to loose signal strength more and loose the signal period with dish....It usually needs to be pretty darn bad out for us to loose it with direct, but even then its only for a minute or so. Simple storms here...

    majano problem.. help!

    Joes Juice, or just injecting them with real lemon juice works, or doseing them wirth kalkwasser also works. True peppermint shrimp are an iffy proposition as some may eat them others may not. Another tired and provenmethod is tosmother them out. Use a piece of styrofoam coffee cup, just a...

    california outages

    Kinda harsh aren't ya Murph? But its the truth. The power companies know full well what kind of useage can be had, as they install and have meters on all places that consume power. So if they have say 1000 , 200 amp services installed, then they should be able to provide power to those 1000...

    Flat Worms all over the place

    Wrong about carbon sucking up the product so quickly. If you read the paper enclosed it tells you that carbon should be run within what 30 or 45 minutes of treatment, as by then basically whats gonna die or is dying is already in doesed and doomed. What ever flatworm exit is it has a reltively...

    Live ones are the same except they have a fuzzy coating which resembles felt or velvet on them and they can be a brownish to purple color....The ones you see that are dead are usually scrubbed clean and bleached and sold for souviners.

    Cycled Tank

    Originally Posted by puffer32 totally disagree with you here. Nothing stinkier then uncured LR! And die off is much more bound to happen as the ammonia rises in uncured rock.

    mushroom lunch

    I tried the dwarf hawaiian zebra hermits a few times and in a ref tank they also were a disaster. Not so much that they bothered much corals etc but they are big bullies and are like a bulldozer, as they are intent on moving stuff around. They killed all my snails, but never utilized their...
