    Am I getting swindled?

    I recently purchased a brand new Honda Civic, during the negotiations I agreed to have the dealer install a auto starter and alarm system. I realize I over paid for the install but I did this as it eliminates the issues where dealers don't want to warranty work on a car and blame the...

    QT Tank - Would this work?

    Now that my tank has seemed to settle in, I am going to be in the market for a number of frags. The flatworm issue and other pests which I have read/heard about has convinced me that having a QT even for coral is one of the best preventative measures to protecting the DT. So here is my idea...

    Really - part 2 : need a roofer ASAP

    Well now I have a hole in my roof from a tree limb which hit that house. Water is dripping from the melting snow, so I have a humidifier pump running into a bucket with a long extension cord to power from the generator, with a tube going to the emergency drain from the ac unit in the attic. I...

    Litermeter for automatic water changes

    I confess I love to fittle with things and I'm exploring doing automated water changes as that is one of the last things which I do manually. I've read a few forums posts on using the litermeter to faciliate this and seem as people who have do it are general pleased with the results. Does...

    Another AI Sol Blue-Can one have too much light?

    I have a 45 cube (love it) with 1 AI Sol Blue above it. With the new price drop, I had a thought about adding a 2nd. What do people think? Can you have too much light? The reasons is that I'm thinking of doing this is that the edges of the tank aren't as bright as the center.
