    The ancient game...

    When the transfer was done. When the livestock was moved. When all was settled. I took the old reliable tank. I emptied it of the remaining water. I didn't want to leave any invert behind. So I sifted through the sand I began playing the old reefer's game... 'Is this alive? Where the H#&& did it...

    Setting up a vendor group order now in an interesting format, keep eyes open early next week. Have a few sale items myself I'll post, including a RO skimmer, Maxspect light, AI light, and an IM tank/stand combo.

    Don't drink skim mate

    Hopefully the frag had an EMT crew on it. I just shifted a tank today, finished an hour ago, have done 2 antibacterial soap washings and a vinegar bath before i touched my kids.

    WTB large frag tank

    Just drilled a 40b and have an assortment of glass bits in Brick if either of you guys need to borrow. If you order bits don't make the Mark_C rookie mistake - a 1" bulkhead will not fit through a hole drilled by a 1" bit, the bit needs to be 1 1/4" to 1 3/8" to accomodate bulkhead threads

    PVC plumbing advice please

    So, what I'm gathering as consensus is... One more question - On the return line, top left, which will be glued... The fit is pretty tight. Anyone 'glued' this with silicone? FYI I'm using a low turnover pump, maybe 400gph. Thanks again all.

    PVC plumbing advice please

    So I'm hard plumbing my first tank. I have two 1" downpipes (one is an emergency overflow) to the sump, and one 3/4" return. When you guys plumb this PVC into the bulkheads do you just silicone it and push it in tight, or do you use PVC cement and make a hard seal between the PVC pipe and...

    FS: Aquatop Reef Cube3 350 OBO

    Ha! Interested? Always. BUT currently on a rebuild and will be offering a 25g myself in the next few weeks. If the demand is so low, as it seems to be, I may just keep it and run it as a frag tank.

    Buy or borrow glass drill bit Morris Essex Passaic/ northern nj

    Kai, I just drilled (first time) a 40b for a 2" overflow and 3/4" return. Most overflow kits will have a glass bit in them (Glassholes, Eshopps) Get your bulkheads for returns first and measure them. My 3/4" return actually required a 1 1/4" hole. I bought off Amazon, specifically these, which...

    Anyone here into cars?

    My 2000 Wrangler, 'Solo's Bane', custom driveway paint job, straight 6, a 'downgraded' ax-15 transmission we had to jam in there, and 4:10 rear axle. Starting to use this a bit more so going to swap out axle for something more reasonable. The 4:10 can pull a house up a mountain, but I can be in...
