yes the water was always circulationg and filtering

Are tehy all turning brown?

no they are starting to turn white... and the zoas wont open... just at my wits END

anyone know where I can get heavy duty glass to glass adhesive?? I will make sure it doesnt come off again

isnt there more than one type of silicone?

so I re did it with some epoxy that is good for underwater and glass... it set up in an hr and was already harder then the silicone ever got... we shall see the test after 24hrs

Awesome thanks for letting me know... I am going for a 40gal breeder that does not have a center brace thats why I was hoping that it would be ok to remove... how would I know if its tempered and could a place like HD or Lowes tell me... (they are closest) thanks in advance

If it does not have a center brace you can remove the trim without any problems, the trim offers no support. Yes you can drill the sides if the bottom is tempered, like jestep said.

awesome thank you all for the advice!!! I appreciate it!!! always good to have people to go to on here that are so helpful thanks again!

not sure it was given to us I think its like a 45-50 gal and th hole is almost in the middle on the bottom

This trick works.

And I can tell you from experience, some 55g tank sides are most certainly tempered. *boom* Haven't had that happen again since I started using the test in that link.

how much will you charge Prof to drill a bigger hole???

Just tried the German Choc Cake this morning ... is OK. The Jet Fuel was really good the other morning

Yeah well as far as coffee I am new with it so I am trying milder stuff for now lol...

I got a Keurig for an early Christmas present too! Yay for Coffee!!

See? We haven't changed a bit!

Yall are great!!! Im trying to find a reasonable cube or something small.... Gotta love it here at the ARC people are GREAT!!!!

I'm officially back 90gal is finally saltwater again!!!! Man I've missed it and all my ARC family!!!!

Someone told me some guy bought something on CL for pennies and, over time, continued to buy, sell, and trade-up items starting with that original item until he turned it into a home purchase.

I actually paid my mortgage one month by flipping items off CL

yeah a couple months ago there was a story on yahoo about a teen who kept making trades and what was worth pennies turned into a porsche for the boy

Thanks... yeah right now the only other females in the house are dogs... kinda hope God helps with it... but healthy is the main thing!

Bros before Ho's!!! (you know what I mean)

I worry about you sometimes Mark...

The plain ole fluorescent that comes with the tank,

I use a 2 VHO retro mainly because I got a good deal on it.

Congrats!

Congrats!

thanks yall.... it isnt really an emergency so you can find my frustration in the reef keeping section..

We all go through it. Hang in there.

My 6yo had that last week, turned out to be strep

Hope he gets better soon (and you guys don't catch anything!).

thanks everyone!! he seems to be better but I think thats the meds anyway I hope he gets well soon... I hope its not Strep

in general lol... ouch Mark lol.... guess you will watch more carefully if he gets that close again right??? lol

I'll do it again too.

Very true Mark and a great friend you have been along with all my other ARC friends... Thanks Brooks... I am the big 27 man 3 more yrs I hit 30... no wait I do not I will be 29 forever lol

Happy b-day!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let me know when you are close to 50...oh...wait...i won't be here...

Petco has the fish sale all of january. I know H.I just got a couple 10's for under a dollar a gallon I think.

I just grabbed 2 40 breeders and a 10 fior my ATO from the petco $1 per gallon sale.

ya I am probably going to get 2 of their 10s they are just currently out at the one here in kyle... I inherited about 30 bettas and I am trying to figure out the best way to keep them taking up the least space... and I can divide a 10gal and get 4 per tank... Thanks all

That would be awesome Don I dont know who to talk to or how to set it up... if you dont mind that would be awesome.. Thank you!!

I'm in.

count me in too.

nope. Freon has been illegal, AFAIK, for some time except to licensed AC people. Call a shop or home AC place.

why do you have a chiller? for the garage tanks?

yeah the big set up behind the door has one built in with the filtration... its kicking on just not cold... it actually takes 134a or whatever the stuff you can buy is... Jake bought the stuff now just need the adapter

never good!

what size tank do you need/want?

at least a 40g breeder its what I had that I cracked willing to trade it if someone wants to fix it... its a 120.00 tank still has cardboard on it too. got it out to get it drilled and crack

yeah I will have to find some more that I can retro fit into my canopy.. I have tried turning on the actinics only and my corals look awesome... so I think if I add more to balance I will get my desired affect

What types of bulbs are you useing for you normal lighting?

2 250w 10k halides

Congrats! Does the little person have a name?

lol yes he does... named after his daddy... Kyle David Cravens Jr.... calling him KJ for short... gma made that.. and we all think its cute...

thank you for the congrats mom, baby, and dad are doing great... Never seen my brother such a nervous wreck...

prof.

lowes cuts glass, i have used them many times

thanks everyone... how big do they need to be?? I know they dont go from top to bottom... its a 40gal breeder for a sump tank

what will be your price range???? was looking for smaller but might still be interested

i got a 50 dollar biocube 14

ive got a biocube 29 for $85

What size holes are you wanting and is the tank moveable?

looking to get bulk heads drilled its 40gal breeder so moving it shouldnt be an issue

What size you need the holes? I have an inch and half inch glass hole saws. I've drilled with good success. If the tank was north I'd cut the holes for you and you just install bulkheads. Like everyone else that drills. Not responsible if it breaks but I don't charge 20 a hole like everywhere else only 10.

If I had the holesaw I'd cut it for you.

it is drillable?? definitely interested!! thanks

sides should be
