    Toro Lawnmower...self-propelled is amazing!!! lol

    So many of you know that I am far from a outdoors person. I grew up in NY in a building and my idea of home repair was asking the super to fix it. Anyways for the past 6 years living in NJ I've been leaning on this second-hand craftman mower. it did the job but it was very hard to push the...

    Hawkeye's AGA 120

    The old adage here is applicable of practice practice practice. I had been taking pics with "AWB" done automatically...this does great in outdoor pics etc but terrible with the ATI blue plus'. There was a device on my camera that has several pre-set options besides AWB...so i literally took 30...

    Pacific Island Aquatics?

    Wouldn't a lot of ornamental fish (e.g. Yellow Tangs, Yellow-eyed tangs, picasso triggers) be from Hawaii...? i wouldn't be concerned if that were the sole concern. In fact if it's straight from there that's even better since they won't have to pass thru a wholesaler in the states first.

    Starting Bio-Pellets

    that skimmer needs to be at a certain water height to function correctly...but I am 100% in agreement with you on the sensitivity...it is very difficult to tune...that stated, once you hit the sweet spot it's great. I used it for my clowns when i was growing them out on a 29 gallon tank.

    Starting Bio-Pellets

    I would say my skimmate has gotten a lot darker. I've got a waste collector so occasionally i will pour that out - but not very frequently.

    Epoxy putty and skimmer craziness

    don't you have a gate valve or something on the skimmer to just turn it back a little bit? Then when the epoxy effect has subsided, you can just turn the valve back to it's original spot (mark it with a pen or label).

    Stale gasoline...how do you get rid of it in NJ?

    Yes it is for the mower and never thought of that...thanks for the fast response! But I have another one. For the snowblower it requires a mixture of oil and gasoline....so that other container also needs to be disposed...suggestions?

    @Matt - i know h.erectus is off these waters (heck i've caught them out of the hudson 15 yrs ago), but correct me here as I thought the risk with attempting capture of sea horses is that wild-caught horses: a) are very difficult to convince to eat anything but live food b) and may have...

    my clown fish just had babies

    Naaa...it's a lot easier than it seems - just takes some trial and error. Remember when we met at Rod's place for the NJRC meeting? I brought a few clowns as a donation for the club to raffle...I never did hear what happened to them...I hoped to be able to breed a few clowns for every meeting...
