    I'm having prob with Email Notification

    Well. Wamp let us know. Somebody has to be pulling the strings around here. Mine is checked to get notifications. And as I said before, I never got them. And I haven't got any on this thread. :confused:

    Putting a reef in a bar?

    Interesting thread. I second the concern for fresh air if you can smoke there. I have a 1980 Atari Centipede video game. It is a table-top 'cocktail' version that used to sit in a bar. When I opened it up I was amazed at what I saw. Thick black fuzz covers all the electronics. It is disgusting...

    OT--Dremel Tool Choice?

    Originally posted by Richard Rendos I hate cordless tools. The batteries don't last long enough to get any work done, and the power is lacking. I would say go with the corded. I second that one! I just had to throw out a Makita with a dead battery. The battery cost more to replace than...

    Who uses/ has an RO system... who uses tap water? BE HONEST

    I never could keep anemones very long until I got a RO unit. I need to resurrect mine. It has been sitting in my closet for a couple years while I moved around. But I have bought two tanks in the last two weeks! I'M BACK BABY!

    Ever do a 35 gallon HEXAGON reef tank!!!

    Looks cool from here! I like it. I know what you mean about the wires. I cringe everytime I look at my stereo. I can't wait until everything is wireless.

    Ever do a 35 gallon HEXAGON reef tank!!!

    Ahh that's a bakpak. I was thinking about the natural route, but I love skimmers. Trouble is, with the hex, it is kinda tight for filters as each glass pane is only about 6-8 inches wide. I'll figure something out. I am sure it will be overkill. ;) Thanks guys...

    Ever do a 35 gallon HEXAGON reef tank!!!

    Wow. I like the volcano! :) I just picked up a 30 hex with stand for $50 this past weekend from a kid for my better half's seahorse tank. I have been staying up thinking about filtration lately. What are you guys using? matt

    Top-off System For Evaporation

    Just to represent the old school, I used a simple kent marine type float switch that was gravity fed. Not the completely vertical types you see now, but the kind with the horizontal bulbous plastic float on it. I had it attached to a five gallon container that stood above my sump. The container...

    flower pot help needed

    Do you feed it directly? They need a lot of food to be happy. Use a turkey baster and do it at the same time everyday so it starts expecting it and opening up beforehand. Somebody I know actually pulls his out and puts it in a bowl with tank water and feeds it in there so others won't bother it...

    Eco-Wheel from Aquatic Engineers

    Because they are so 'revolutionary.' ;) I found the thread with the price of one eco-wheel setup: "I think I spent about $3500 not including the stand and lights over the tank. It is not cheap but worth it in my book." :eek:

    Eco-Wheel from Aquatic Engineers

    Well the giant bio-wheel and the bio-balls made me think that the thing might kick out some nitrates. But with a ton of algae on it, maybe not. I am pretty sure I am in the price range. Some guy on another site has one and I believe he paid over 3g. I am not sure if that was the full-blown...

    Eco-Wheel from Aquatic Engineers

    It's an interesting concept, but you have to pay to play - $3000 - $4000! :eek: And it takes quite a bit more to set up than the average filter. May be more suited for a fish tank than a reef tank too.

    MH lighting experts

    $11.00 a bulb! That is a good connection to have there Rob. What I want is an open hood lighting fixture, that allows easy access into the tank. Hmmm.
