I have posted ways to eliminate mojanos before but this high tech way is the baes, and most fun. I use 24 volts DC which can't hurt you and I inject it into a mojano with this home made electrode. It uses stainless steel sewing needles in an acrylic tube sealed with a glue gun. I thought it was...

I have been taking it from a beach or my boat for almost 40 years, no problem yet. Maybe in 41 years there is a problem ???

How do you know when you have been at this for too long? When after you thought you threw everything out that you don't need, you have more than you started with. Here are a few of the thiongs I just can't part with. I did not include 10 gallons of rock, miles of tubing and three or four tanks.

Yeah, thats him ;D

79, Nick, I have amphipods older than you ;D

Nick I have three of those same powerheads all of which are still running trouble free. The tiny tube worms living throughout the thing don't help with it's operation an those things have a skeleton that is akin to broken glass, very abrasive and I am sure is what contributed to the wearing of...

This powerhead has been running non stop since the eightees when they invented them. It has only stopped a a few times when the power was out. Lately, if it stopped, I could not get it running again and I would have to take it apart and spin the impeller a few times to start it. I decided today...

Having been an electrician for 40 years I have a few, but it is a long ride from your house to Long Island

It seems that when many fish age, they hide. Of course they don't consider it hideing, they are just getting old and don't care to swim around and impress the Babes any more. He is content to hang out in the shadows with his main squeeze. Sort of like I like to do. ;D But I tend to stay in the...

I have not seen my watchman gobies for a few weeks so I figured they croaked. :'( I searched this morning behind the rocks in the tank with a flashlight and they are doing fine. The pair is still together, actually right on top of each other. I guess they found new friends and just don't want...

Redfishbluefish, I live in an incorporated village and I know all about it. Here you also need a permit for a permit. When I had a broken sidewalk they said I had to fix it. I said OK no problem. Then they said I needed a permit which cost $250.00 I said I have to repair the village sidewalk and...

I think everyone with an old boiler should do this. the savings are un believable

Here is the one I installed by Crown Boiler. A few companies make them but you need to look at Energy Star products to get the tax advantage and rebates. Mine is 94.5% efficient and is the 90,000 BTU model for residential use. http://www.crownboiler.com/products/res_gas/index.asp

This type of boiler is not plumbed like a common boiler, the plumbing is different especially if you have more than one zone. But all the plumbing changes are right next to the boiler. You need permits if you are converting to gas and need to run gas pipes. If you already have gas heat, I would...

Maybe it has something to do with the 100k

I am extreamly happy this month. 3 months ago I removed my old oil burner and installed a 95% efficient, Energy Star rated gas boiler. I just got my first bill for the three months, it was $400.00. That is for heat, hot water and cooking for two families in New York. Last year for heat alone it...

I have heard that also but like most things in this hobby, we really don't know where that came from or if it is true. It may be so I did not say to use it on aiptasia but I have also used it on them. I really don't remember if they spread or not, but I don't have any of them now so I don't know...

Yes it would and I know all the rumors that that will cause them to spread all over the place. If that were the case, I would be up to my neck in them as I have been doing this for decades. I just smoked about 20 of them so I will report back in a month and see if they spread all over the place...

I am pretty sure that brush will work for just about any animal you want to eliminate in a tank
