    ID please

    I would call it "rock with orange star polyps" but bang has a waaaay more scientific way of saying that.:) The question is " DO you like them?" They look quite pretty.

    Pod pupulation decreasing?

    I asked this question a year or so ago. It seems that the pods go through cycles, you see a bunch for a while...and then very few. Six months later , the ones that were gone, now are in abundance. Not to mention the ones you didn't know that you had. Now and again, I will go to my LFS and buy...

    scuba

    I got certified about 19 years ago, and did the commercial diving thing in the gulf. Freshwater diving is awesome, but the frist time you spend a few minutes on a reef, or a rig...it seems like diving in a puddle. I haven't blown a bubble in 3 years, been reef keeping since then. I miss it...

    Can we get a consensus on denitrators?

    I built a denitrator and was amazed at the results. Until I noticed it was stopped up and wasn't doing anything at all... I'm not sure whether it had anything to do with my nitrate decline or not, currently it is not helping them stay at 5pppm. I am afraid to unclog it for fear that it may...

    Cristmas Eve plumbing story (kinda gross)

    Whell, I just got back from downtown. I had a backed up sewer line that the snake couldn't reach the stoppage. I came up with this brilliant:rolleyes: idea that I would adapt this bladder that I have for pressurizing the sewre line. Well, my small compressor wouldn't deliver enough air to do...

    Update...Ranger in trouble

    Beth, No, I did not know that I was in a basketfull of trouble for taking a pistol to NY. If I was making a political statement, I would have left my boy at home and brought enough money for bail. I have carried a pistol since I was about 20. And every time I went traveling. Anywhere. I have...

    Update...Ranger in trouble

    Beth, You have my heart if not may hand:D I did violate the law of NY, and do not dispute that. I have been more than willing to pay a fine for my infraction. But I am not a criminal, and my heart bleeds for those that live under that regime. The NRA is afraid of these folks. Bangguy, and...

    Update...Ranger in trouble

    I currently make $32k, with some frome real estate. $250 is not much, until you have seen lawyers postpone a case, time and time again...- $250 a pop, it can get expensive. By the way, the NRA's position (as of today) is that this is un -winnable, and therfore should not be fought. They are...

    Putting Acrylic Together

    That is right, but for the "no second Chances" If you have a leak (check outside with fresh water) then you can take some "sawdust" from when you cut your acrylic and thicken it up with weld on. Use this like caulk over the leak.

    piping

    Regular PVc wil be alright, but I am concerned about the 20 gallon tank, sump that you propose. Why not a giant rubbermaid container? In case of power outage, where does the water in your system go? It has to go tho the sump. So the sump has to hold all of the water in the piping and the...

    Starfish died - Nitrates straight up

    My guess would be that the dead star was the effect, not necessarily the cause. Water change is the key now, and get some plant life grrowing to help the nitrate reduction(RIP Bob:) ). Doing a 10% change will reduce nitrates 10%, Theoretically. So if you havew 50ppm, change water and you have...

    Free stuff from LFS!

    Shoot, I'd love to send some to all of you! But as things go, it takes several months to get a batch to stick and grow. I have only about 12 or so blues. Sorry, but as I get another batch ready to frag, I be sure to post.
