Testing - I've been having issues posting....

These are the things which make a long working day even longer. Glad you caught it and everyone is safe.

I have a tunze nano ATO which is gonna get repurposed this year!!

Your correct, the house was built in the late 40's. We did a total gut of the kitchen/dining room and went out 5 feet to make room for the tank. I had the electrician run a line to the ceiling above the tank for my Kessil lights. To get as clean of a look as possible, I will not be...

when you piece the PVC together are you applying cement on both pieces and twisting it to set it (you should). I think you might not have used enough cement. You also need to make sure you hold it together until it sets as it will try to separate. Sorry if this is obvious.

Some progress!! So the slowest build thread is starting to make some progress. My temporary tank isn't doing so well, as I don't have my controller connected and I have been a bit behind on ensuring parameters are in check. A lot of the SPS's are probably in trouble. On the good side...

You can do a lot online now, check out the PADI web site. Basically, you do class room work, pool time and then an open water test.

I've decided to go external with my pumps, and in order to save some table top space (basement sump), I was thinking of drilling the bottom of the sump for the bulk heads and running to the pumps which will sit below on a separate shelf. I've see 1 example of this, but the side of the sump was...

I have been doing for a few years. Mostly when I go to a new place. It's fun way to get the kids hiking, but ones around urban areas are pretty cool.

You can set the apex to shut off the doser if pH goes above a specific number. Sound/email an alarm as well.

You get excited when producing more dark, really stinky stuff called skimmate

your the only non-plumber who knows the difference between shed 40 and shed 80 PVC

Mike, I thought read in your 210 build your running the NaturReef reactor (or was that Spotter), why not use the Phosgone?

We're currently in the middle of an addition/Kitchen renovation, so during the planning process my 1 requirement to the architect and Kitchen designer was for a new larger tank. I think that was a fair trade, new kitchen for a new tank!! I just broke down and order one to play around with. I...

Awesome build and great work with the stand.

Good idea on the 2 pumps, will have to think about that.

Take the money you'll spend on the refractometer apply it to the Milwaukee, you just saved yourself some money in the long run. I have the Milwaukee and will not look back, super easy and fast.

the miter saw makes quick work and very clean cuts. I have too many cuts in my layout and I alway try to use power tools when I can!

I bought a case of these which made the shipping more bearable from another cable management site. Also, if you have a miter saw get a cheap plastic cutting blade for a clean cut.

+1, went this weekend to pick up 120lbs of Real Reef rock for the build!! I was so tempted to by a few frags.
