Ok. She is all but filled. Took a freaking week because of my 5 gallon reserve in my sink. Might need to bet a dedicated system. Need 5 more gallons to keep the return bay full above water level needs. Tank a little cloudy from rearranging my current live rock but it will settle soon. Got my...

Woot Woot. Won $100 gift card. Thanks @Premiumaq

The next part in my build series is my review of the Tunze Osmolator Universal 3155 Auto Top Off that I purchased at @Premiumaq during their sale. I was so happy..I bought at 15% off and just before the $10 price increase. Woot Woot. This is reportedly the best ATO in the business. Initial...

Thanks. Definitely keeping this in mind. I used the Bio Bricks as a stop gap measure because I wanted to start getting water in the tank. Already ordered some egg crate. Thanks for the offer.

You dont want that. I spent the last few days chasing a pin hole leak!!! However, it does seem like my plumbing is finally water tight and I am starting to get the tank wet. Sucks that I only have a 5 gallon RODI reservoir so probably going to take me about a week to get it filled!!! My wife...

The price of the Tunze Osmulator auto top off went up 10 bucks in the last week. I am happy that I got it at the 15% off the old price from Premium Aquatics 25th anny sale. I wonder if there is a price tracker anywhere on these.

stupid question...is phytoplankton made up of diatoms and dinos? I thought these were bad for a tank.

Ok. Plumbing is done. Originally did this with white schedule 40 but I was an idiot on and used the yellow Oatley cement. Looked absolutely terrible. Figured since I am redoing it..why not make it purdy..so I was the fool with money and bought the expensive colored pvc to match my Emerald...

Of Course. You replied to what i was asking about. The return pipe inside of the overflow box itself...not under neath. Everything underneath is rock solid glued!!!

Question for the vets out there. My 3/4 return is a slip x slip. Do I cement in the return pvc in the overflow bulkhead? Worried that the pressure will push out the tube. But also worries that I won’t be able to remove if I need to. Thoughts?

As a free market capitalist...I believe in one and only one way of making the price come down....dont buy it. If enough people say no thank you, price concession inducements will follow.

After seeing a radion g5 XR15 compared against a red Sea led...there is no comparison. The Red Sea should be embarrassed on their performance!! Not even in the same league, let alone ball park Radion XR15 Pros are my new choice. Hoping to find one on sale in the next month while my new tank...

Lol. About the same as insulting someone then saying no offense? :p

They say inflation is starting to take hold; and honestly, inflation is the only way that our debts (national, state and personal) will ever be paid...if at all. I was looking at those vipraspectre but didnt see enough chatter if they would support SPS so I passed on them for the ridiculously...

I honestly think it is the MAP (Minimal advertisable price) pricing. This method of blackmail by the companies that force stores to choose between serving the best interest of the clients vs carrying the products their clients' want is just a brutal cycle. This also keeps the resale market...

Found it...Pineapple Sponge

That is the whole piece. It really is like a maggot in size, shape and consistency

Hello everyone. While doing my weekly maintenance, I came across some new objects in my tank that are throwing me for a loop. The look like eggs / larva but I have no clue. They are soft, almost of a maggot like consistency (sorry..i know that is gross but I have no other way to describe it)...

call me ignorant..but what is this? Looks awesome with the sweepers.

The next part in my series of the build is the lighting hanging hardware: Floating Suspension Hybrid Light Fixture Hanging System - Black - Aquatic Life - Bulk Reef Supply This beautiful piece gets my first 5 out of 5 star rating. Very well constructed. Easy to understand instructions...
