    Saw a big tank in a Tahoe on Anderson Mill on my way to golfing yesterday. Any ARC'ers setting up a new tank?

    Anyone have a PAR meter I can borrow for a day? Just want to get some baseline measurements on my tank.

      google fiber wont allow for business customers at first.. they plan on implementing a business strategy further down the line. Have you thought about not using a locally managed frame? and instead using colocated/hosted?

    Good = A BTA finally moved away from some nice ORA SPS. BAD = I don't know where.

      @*#&^$ BTAs! They've caused me many times more problems than aiptasia, mojano's, mantis anf gorilla crabs combined but I can't get rid of them 'cause my clients want them. >:-(

      Oh, had to one-up us on that one... Do you really have a BTA??? ;)

    Used to be reefclub. Enter during checkout. Just a note based on my experience, you may want to order a crew for a smaller tank. They tend to put way more than what I would ever want in a tank. I'm not complaining for getting much more than expected, and their service is top notch, but I would literally order a 50 gallon kit for a 200 gallon tank.

    Watched an amazing documentary on bluefin tuna yesterday. Didn't realize a fish could be warm blooded. Totally amazing national geographic if anyone can find it.

    I think a Pico sub forum in tank builds would be a good idea.

    Got another tank for my office. I swear this hobby is like a disease and I'm certainly terminal.

      Well, there's a lot worse ways to spend your money AND time. :)

    I knew I could fit a purple tang in mine. Thanks for confirming.

    Just got back in town from a few week vacation. Not a big deal, just wanted to see if anyone finalized the judging or if this is just going to go out quietly.

    This is going straight into a 90 for more open space, currently in a 50.

      Yeah. I actually threw out the old ones yesterday afternoon while I was doing some maintenance and forgot to put the new one on. Murphy sucks...

    Back from a week vacation. It's nice when you can leave for a week or two and not worry about a tank. Automation is great!

      Luckily I have a chiller on the main tank. But 93 degrees inside at 9PM with all the fans in the house on and blinds down. We left for the weekend hoping they would fix it. I F'ing hate our landlord. Not even an email or voicemail after renting for 7 years...

      We installed a new oversized Goodman a/c ourselves. Had a a/c tech friend stop by to draw vaccume and test my brazes. Best 2k I have ever spent.

    I'd be happy to wait. I was out of town and couldn't finish a few last things.

    Forgot to post this on Tuesday but I guess we all need to post a picture of and our final stocking lists. WHo's still in this thing? I know we have unfortunately lost a few contestants.
  23. jestep
    Just noticed June 4th is the deadline for final stocking. I feel so far behind on this one...

    Driving down the 4" deep river which used to be the 290 frontage road. Haven't seen rain like this in a long time. Wish it would stick around longer.

    I think it's 10 external images in a single post. I get an error when I try to add any more to the first post of my build thread. I tried replacing with smaller ones, and it didn't seem to care. Since they're external I'm assuming the server isn't fetching them and determining the size every time a post is updated.
