    Kingstown Rhode Island

    I may be going on a business trip later ni the week to Kingstown Rhode Island, and I was wondering if anyone knows of any good saltwater fish stores in the area-- If I go , i told my company I will not be flying (with the war and all), so I will be driving. I plan on bringing a rubbermaid...

    What! I am not addicted! How DARE you accuse me of being addicted?!?! Just becuase I kiss my tank goodbye before my wife and daughter, and watch it from work on the webcam, and get up 3 times a night to look at the night critters and stop at every fish store on the way home from anywhere as...

    I could sell you 2-3 bags, but i think shipping would make it cheaper for you to buy some of the live sand that is in the bags... each bag weighs 50 pounds... you might want to look into buying the bags of live sand..... let me know though- i am willing to ship.... Joe

    Red Sea Prizm Skimmers

    Tim--- I used to follow their instructions and hook it to the left hand nossle, but started either pinching it, or unpluging it and just holding my finger over the end. all hooking it to the left hand nossle does is to stop air from being sucked in, so all the power from the pump is used to...

    How do i make moon lights?

    If you use hot glue- keep in mind that the way hot glue works is when it gets hot, it melts. I was not thinking of this and once upon a time attatched VHO bulb clips with hot glue.... :rolleyes: Needless to say, once the bulbs were on for a bit, the clips didn't hold the bulbs up for too...

    avoid power outage

    Compuer backups wouldn't really work too well for backup IMO. The wattage is not as important as the amps. I am not very electrically inclined, but Im pretty sure that you would burn it out trying to run your VHO on it. I work for a computer company, and we had one of our customers use the UPS...

    Mine actually said in the instructions to fill all the chambers first-- my guess is that they realized it woudl work better if you did that first and added it to the instructions....

    Hair algae/coral die off problem solved - cat pee!

    The mouse traps wouldn't actually snap on the cat- they would just scare him, as when the cat jumps up, the vibration alone would set off the traps.... I would not consider that abuse... My suggestion however, would definately fall under the 'abuse' category, but i was only joking.....

    Can I add my lr and ls yet?

    Yeah the LR should have been put in saltwater as soon as you got it. the longer its out of the water, the more of it dies off.

    If you are talking about the hang on one, I had the same problem with mine, but it was older than a year so i had to buy the replacemnt motor for $10. Check all the rubber gaskets, make sure they are wet, also the tube that goes into the collection bin needs to be pinched shut to start the...

    Is pure water from store ok?

    Some of the people who have been here a while will remember my tragedy using 'pure' distilled water. I bought several gallons of distilled water from walm@rt, and did a water change. within several hours, all my corline algae bleached white, and i lost several fish. ended up with a 4 month...

    Blue or black backgrounds. What do you prefer?

    I used black, my wife wanted blue and I won. :) Mine is mostly purple though, due to coraline algae growth
