    what the hell?? no info? just like normal I ask a direct question and get a bunch of comments instead of info. I don't like having profiles out on the net that I don't want and it really shows the lack of attention this site is getting that no mod is willing to at least answer this question. I'm...

    you and flower aside I don't get along with most people on this sight and I don't really like a lot of this sites policies. I am finding I'm learning a lot more off a different sight because I feel more comfortable and because they allow links and competitive sales on their site witch allows for...

    turf scrubbers

    brwk12 I think the system you need to look into is called a deroso or something like that. It used 2 overflow pipes so you can match one to your pump speed and have the second for the times that it's a little too much. I was annoyed with the noise created by my overflow and so I set one up. I...

    turf scrubbers

    I've got the glue and everything is ready for me to put it together...... but I messed up the seal on one of the bulkheads on my 40g tank when I was working on plumbing. I think it's going to be a little bit before I get to assemble my ATS

    some times I wonder what I'm doing!

    so I started with a 29g with a hob skimmer and filter and some nice power heads. At first I was so happy with my 1 rock in a beautiful bed of sand and a cuc to watch. I had no clue how amazing it was that I could get pre-cycled everything from my roommate at the time. Things progressed inside...

    stoked on my new surfboard!!

    a 6'6" is a one of those boards you just have to have in your quiver, and that's a nice one. I got rid of the 2 in the middle. One just did not feel right to me and worked really well for a friend and the other is just a little small for me to it went to my nephew. The 6'6" on the right has...

    If you care about your hobby, please look.

    so how many of you live by the ocean and spend time in or around it on a consistent basis? I am all for this and think that if you want to be responsible in this hobby you need to support aqua-cultured products. The Santa Cruz community is very close to the Hawaiian community because there are...

    Split tank?

    you could do one of those fake rock walls to hide some plumbing and/or make it a over flow box for both tanks and have your water go into the middle of your sump.

    turf scrubbers

    the 2 big differences that I see between this and macro in the fuge is the air and being able to wash it with fresh water to get rid of the pods. I agree doing weekly washes might be a pain, but I'm trying to get my life on more of a schedule anyway so I'm cool with setting a schedule around my...

    turf scrubbers

    I don't know if it's as strong as they are saying, but people are clamming that it can replace all other filtration. I've even read claims that you might be able to replace doing water changes to reduce trates and trites with it (ya right). I'm just going to use it as a add-on.

    Split tank?

    sounds pretty cool to me. I have two tanks set up on one sump (soon to be a much nicer sump/fuge ) . One is going to be a higher light, high flow sps tank and the other is going to be a lower light, lower flow lps tank. I assume your going to have a dark divider in between them so the fish can't...

    turf scrubbers

    ya, mine is turning out to be quite the project lol but it's good practice. I'm going to be building a pretty big sum/fuge soon and have not worked with plexi before so I think the harder I make this the better I'll be at doing the bigger stuff. Bt you run that light 16hrs open to the room...

    turf scrubbers

    The holes are in the table I'm using not in the plastic. It worked really well. I got to go play play-dough with my 4yr old niece or she will get really upset with me or I would post some pics, but I'll get them up latter.

    turf scrubbers

    I just finished measuring and taping out my plastic while my nieces nap (can't cut because it makes too much noise). I hope the saw blade cuts the plastic well, I know I can do it with this special cutting wheel, but I have to go really slow. I'm still waiting on the glue from Tap Plastic. I...
