Doesn't keeping the bottle on its side keep the cork from drying out as well??

Thanks Mbodel...Does anyone really know what why the humidity level needs to be at a certain range? Why hummidity is important to preserving wine?

Hey Evo....I've got a 94 Supra TT in the garage and a 180 Reef!! You can do it!!

HAHAHA Thanks Rod...but the people I live with don't even know I have it ;D I may just buy a cooler and put a Hygrometer in there to watch the humidity level. Opening the door every so often should keep the humidity...no??

I answer your reef questions Nick!! I don't have a friend I trust with my $100 bottle of wine LOL. Rod....I read that too. I'm wondering if I were to put a small dish of water in the cooler if that would keep the humidity up. Because I don't see how the cooler would produce humidity.

Thanks Rod!! I appreciate the offer!! I'm looking to store the one bottle for a few years. I had a 93 Silver Oaks, Napa Valley Cab about a two years ago that was very well cared for and OMG it was incredible!! I've been thinking about building a wine collection and I have expensive taste LOL.

I found this one http://www.edgestar.com/products/winecooler/TWR181ES.asp It says it keeps the humidity at the correct levels....not sure how it would though.

I do have a basement, but it's usually warm due to the 180 being down there. Crap...what do I do!! Do they make fridges with humidity control??

I was also just told that most wine cooler\refrigerators are really only good for storing wine for about a year. The more expensive models do have humidity control built into them. But may be able to do it o0n the cheap by getting a hygrometer or better yet a small electronic humidification...

No..no specific brand or model...don't know much about the coolers. I'm looking under $200...only need a small one. The one bottle that is most important to me is my 2003 Silver Oaks, Napa, Cab. Then I have a 2008 Imagery, Sonoma, Sauvignon Blanc, that I'd like to keep a while (it's the...

Have you had good luck with opening a bottle after 2 years?? I've been doing a bunch of research on how to store wine long term and I've found that wine should be kept at 54-degrees and at least 70% humidity. Do these coolers keep the humidity level up?

I'm pretty sure there are a few people on here that are into wine. I'm looking to store some bottles long term, but I don't have a wine cellar. Do these wine coolers work?

I got the Green Slimer...a HUGE frag too...thanks Brando!! I'm still looking for some birdsnests. I was offered 2 for a piece of my green, but my green isn't doing well, so I can't consciously give one out.

I'm still thinking about getting one or twwo Harlequin Shrimp....does anyone know if they eat brittle stars too?? My tank os completely loaded with brittle stars!!

With 20K bulbs you'll get better color, not as quick growth.

Is this the one you just bought??

There are a lot of people who dose vodka in small tanks....It's easier than you think!! Just start out slow and small. Yes...same name and avatar on saltwerfish.com.

HAHAHAHA....my corals are doing just fine!! You have to see how fuzzy this green slimer is now!! You have PE on yours??

Here is a picture of what my skimmer looks like when it needs to be emptied and cleaned!!!

So an update....I am now up to 8.5mL a day. I did a complete round of water tests last night and my reading are still high where they were when I started this in December. My Nitrates are at 50ppm and my Phosphates are at .03. But, even though I have such high reading, my polyp extension has...
