    quick question - Ammolock

    Is ammolock that white filter media that adsorbs ammonia from the water? If so, then I think it only works in freshwater systems. I may be mistaken tough.

    Opinions on Plenum's

    Thanks tons. I'm going to try and take it SSSLLOOOOOWWWWW this time. Had bad luck last time with this tank. My own fault though, poor lighting mostly I think. Ran great for a couple months, then crashed and I couldn't keep anything alive in there anymore.

    Opinions on Plenum's

    would I have to buy all live sand, or could I buy mostly dry and add some good live sand and a few pieces of live rock to get the rest of it going? Would I need to mix the live sand in with the dry stuff, or just stick it on top? Is it still a good idea to try to keep contact between the live...

    Opinions on Plenum's

    I'm just getting back into setting up my tank after a 2 year hiatus, and have not really been able to keep up with new advances. It was my understanding that deep beds of sand harbor hydrogen sulfide bacteria (nasty black spots in sand) which produce hydrogen sulfide gas, has this changed? This...

    Anybody use this *** probe

    Yes, that would definitely make it work more efficiently. Just missed the wires. :-) I still would not use this for a sizable tank though. Peltiers work well, but only as well as the heatsink/fan you put on top of them. I can't tell how big this unit is, but I would guess not much more than 4...

    Anybody use this *** probe

    I've built a couple computers and this thing actually looks like a large heatsink/fan unit for the CPU in the computer with a probe stuck on the bottom where the CPU would normally be. This probably won't be any good for an tank bigger than maybe 30 gallons, and even then it may only bring the...

    What LOA Model?

    I tried the store locater and it doesn't work, and neither wal-mart nor home-depot would order one for me. :-

    PH tester calibration

    I don't livei n the dallas area myself, but a city that big SHOULD have several good shops and one or two of those ought to have the test solutions. You might try a photo developing supply store too (wild guess though).

    Finally Setup....

    I rinsed my aragonite for a good 20 minutes, and still had it pretty cloudy for a day or so, so I guess just give it time to settle.

    What LOA Model?

    Hi folks, just wondering, but I have been to several local Walmarts and 2 local Home Depots, and neither one has this light. Is this light only available in certain geographical areas, or is it being discontinued? I'm really interested in putting one or two of these above my sump. Thanks.

    Fixing broken overflow box

    Another thing you might want to do if you are worried about strength is to find a small piece of acrylic and use it as sort of a backer. Glue it to the back so it covers where the break is and glue the broken out piece there. That is about as strong as you can get. Also a good way to fix a...
