    "If you want to upgrade your tank I want you to upgrade my front porch!"

    That's too much work. I'm about over this build I hate to say. The cords aren't long enough to reach from one tank to the other so I would have unmount the ballasts and all that come with it.

    the only problem with dr. tims is getting it!. nobody sells the stuff locally and when you ship it you have to 2 day ship it because of the weather.

    What I have done thus far is when I first got the tank full, temp right, and salinity on point I added a bottle of Dr.Tim's. I put the rock that was in my old sump into the DT and added 2 cups of sand from my old tank. A few days later I added the cuc. After the cuc I did a 30gal water change...

    I can't because I have all of my corals still in my 90g. I'm not sure when I should transfer the fish over from one tank to the other. I figure if by this weekend these chromis are still good then I will slowly start to transfer the fish over.

    My Chromis are still alive and eating. I really want to put my lights over the tank and get to see what it looks like

    Vasectomy Anyone?

    After you have it done thy want you to have 2 tests done to see if it was successful. Most guys only have the first test done and don't bother having the second. A good friend of mine had the first test and it came back negative. When he got the second it had come back positive. He had to get...

    It is a DC pump so i can control the flow a little bit better. I have it set on the lowest pump setting and have the gate valve wide open. so since i messed with the discharge would it make the skimmer be lower or higher in water depth? would i compensate the depth to be lower or higher?

    Vasectomy Anyone?

    I drove myself. No big deal at all. I stopped at the bagel shop and had a bagel on the way home.

    Vasectomy Anyone?

    The worst part was the very pretty 20something year old nurse that was in the room. My Dr gave me the option to be awake or asleep. I chose awake. If you go to youtube and look it up there is a full video of a dr doing one. from start to finish. I had mine done on a Friday and coached...

    "If you want to upgrade your tank I want you to upgrade my front porch!"

    Since I have to keep the skimmer in the center part of the sump I have to mod the outflow a bit. If I don't the bubbles that make it back into the DT is way too much. Other than the skimmer discharging upstream and skimming the same water more than one time think this will be a...

    Since I put that drain into the Durso I have noticed that every so often it will make a flushing sound exactly like a toilet. It doesn't do it consistently but every now and again. kind of strange

    Gotcha. It's run off of a Reef Oct 105000 DC pump. I just made the manifold go to the top of the stand so if i needed to run lines or anything it would out of the way kind of

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean. I have the reactor run off the manifold. It's the first port out of 4 all the way on the left.
