  6. Just because I know there are some paint and body people on here... You know you're a nut when you know the paint code of the garden tools you just painted. --- You know you're a bigger nut when you can say that you have a House of Kolor garden shovel! :D

      I have them in my tank... they can become pest like by multiplying a lot. A Pakistan Butterfly I had briefly wiped most of them out, but I am starting to see them again.

  9. Tip of the Day #1: Before calibrating probes, place unopened packets in aquarium to acclimate them to the system temperature.

      I did after I figured out the Apex ORP probe won't work with ORP calibrating solution.

  10. Reading about pump cavitation...

      Had to memorize the definition and about a million equations for fluid dynamics about 10 years ago, ugh...

      Cavitation = bad, enough said...

  11. I am in the process of setting up a GEO 618 Calcium Reactor with a Milwaukee MA957 CO2 Regulator. Both the reactor and the regulator have bubble counters. Am I correct to assume that the one integrated with the regulator assembly is more accurate? Also, I purchased a CO2 reactor kit which came with an additional Azoo CO2 check valve and bubble counter liquid. The Milwaukee manual recommends filling the counter with water. Would there be any benefit to using the bubble counter liquid? The reactor has tubing with a check valve in between the solenoid and the bubble counter. Is there anywhere else I should install this additional check valve? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
  12. Considering trading more difficult corals for the sake of instant gratification...
