    Laptop help

    If you are a GMAIL user I would get google drive to sync all your files/photos/etc ASAP. That laptop will most likely stop again. While I agree with the scanning for malware, that can tax a machine pretty hard, so backup backup backup. Did I mention backup? This way when you get a new...

    10/22/2017 Poll of the day

    Controller, Apex. Not only does it monitor salinity, pH and temp but water level in my sump, all my pumps, lights and vortechs. I also just set it up for an automatic water change, which I have been really enjoying. Can you do this with a simple and cheaper solution, sure, but I like the tried...

    Achilles Tang &Powder Blue Tang together

    While it shouldn't be terrible, I would have a plan if you go that route. How would you get one of them out? Where would the one you remove go? I for one a big believer in 'If the Tang eats for a week at the store, grab it'

    Snowflake Eel disappeared

    If the eel made it into the overflow box, you could use some type of mesh netting to keep it out. What covers on the overflow? Without that it could end up in the overflow again. If it is stuck in the pluming only way to find out is to start taking things apart, which sucks. I don't know if...

    Question on water parameters

    Between 78 and 81, mixed reef not a problem. I stopped testing, aside from my probes. For the most part it keeps me from chasing numbers.

    Neptune APEX DOS

    Power is required, which is interesting but makes sense considering what it does. I really like mine, using it for an automatic water change of about 5 gallons a day.

    Neptune APEX DOS

    Forget fusion for now. You should be able to hold down the button on the front and then pump will run while it is being pressed. If that works but the system isn't in fusion/dashboard correctly that is a different problem.

    Solar Panels

    With mine, I don't own the panels at all. If I move the buyer can take over the contract or buy it out. If I have issues with the roof, let's say a new one, they will take the panels down, I have the roof replaced they put the panels back.

    Solar Panels

    Not to be a commercial but here it goes. NRG does this as a utility, they are 100% responsible for the panels and the production of electricity. Their contract states they will generate X amount a year. Therefore if a panel needs to be replaced they do it, or else they owe me money. If you...

    Poison Ivy?

    When in doubt don't touch it and use some type of herbicide. Sometimes it can take more than one or two applications to remove the plant completely.

    Help trouble with glass panel in aquarium...Please help =(

    I would sell it to someone cheap and buy something new. Any crack in glass that would then have the weight of 300gallons of water behind it just would be way too risky.
