I would love to have my computer guy talk with you for few minutes about how to make it work. Getting this stuff to work for me is over my head, I can use computers but can't work on them. I have a part time employee that pretty sharp that works on the system everytime he comes in, he would be better at explaining our problem. You are right it was the SID that we sent in for the update. I did complain about the cables to DA, they agreed that they should be in the boxes with the powerstrips but didn't knoe for sure if they were are not. They didn't offer to send me any. This is my list of unresoleved issues Hooking up to the net to view from my iphone Fixing ORP probe Fixing PH probe which I think is software related b/c it happended shortly after update Install high water and low water sensors for the sump I had a similar problem with my PH probe after the upgrade and DA replaced mine under warranty. I also have high/low water sensors for my ATO wired into my SL1, which works great. I don't have an ORP proble though I have the port for one, so I can't be of much help there. I think the most complicated part with the net module was getting access to the data from outside my home network. Took me a few hours to get all the different pieces in place, but has worked flawlessly since then. I'm happy to answer questions if I can.

I know I know but apparently the upgrade is very involved....so they require you to send it in to them. Cost me like 3 bucks round trip.

Sorry to hear you are having so many problems. Mine has worked like a champ. I had one problem when I updated to the 2.0 firmware (lost the power strips). I emailed the company to get a file I needed to resolve the problem and had it in a couple hours. Also didn't have any problems connecting up my net module (connects wirelessly to my home network). So I can monitor the system from my phone and turn on/off anything as well. The only piece you need to send in to DA before you can perform the upgrade is the SID - System Interface Device. Keep in mind that the 2.0 firmware is still in Beta....for like 6months now. I really want to try out one of the ALC - Advanced Light Controllers. BTW - If you have not been receiving the patch cables with your orders then I would complain. They have come with everything I have ordered so far. The base kit even came with a bunch of extra ones.

I think it's best if someone that has already gone through this, describe how they cared for their anemone afterward.

Numerous people have had this happen, and had the anemone make a full recovery. It just takes time and TLC.

Thanks for all the feedback. I will consider other options.

Do you mean have them build the stand and canopy, or just finishing them? I had never considered having a cabinet maker build a stand but that might be a good way to go.

Currently my plan is to purchase a Marineland 90g RR through RCA. I don't really want to go with the Marineland stand since it's just particle board, plus I would like something that could potentially match(in color) the furniture in my office. So that means unstained or custom. Also I want to make sure that I will have good amount if space and easy access to the sump in the stand. I don't mind spending a little extra on the stand if it means I get what I want.

Anyone here have any experience with the stands that Glasscages make? I like the fact they come unstained so I could stain it to match the rest of the furniture, but I don't know what the construction quality is. TIA Charles

You can also setup your ATO using one of the switch ports on the SL1 Module.

Should introduce him to Shiner.

I had heard that you should only use Acrylic tanks with them since they can crack the glass ones. Pretty cool creature though.

I actually like your aquascape, only thing I would recommend is that you keep space between the rocks and the glass to make it easy get your glass cleaner between them. Otherwise, looking good.

Thanks, just not sure it's worth it to add to the setup if there's not much noticeable difference. Just trying to optimize the skimming/nutrient export.

Noone?

Is anyone here using an Ozone generator with their Skimmer? I read a couple interesting articles on wetwebmedia and wanted to hear more from people actually using this technology. Thanks, Charles

Congratulations!!

Sunday afternoon should be fine. I also live in River Ridge, over on South Ridge Circle.

No pickup or suv here, perhaps we can work something out though.

This would be great for my garage. I just don't have a vehicle large enough to transport it.

I think someone recent suggested putting Mussels in the refugium.

My subscription to Coral Magazine is coming to an end, and before I renew it I thought I would check out what other people are reading. So let me know what reef keeping magazine you recommend/subscribe to. Thanks Charles
