youre thinking of purigen

If your tank has high level of phosphates then the phosban/phosguard/gfo get saturated in a matter of hours. I am running phosphate remover and observe the algae. If they start getting green I regenerate the phosphate remover, usually about once per 2-3 months.

I gave the wrong name. Its phosguard. I'm going to retest the tanks its in tonight. Guess it will be perfect for my tank curing live rock.

I loved my time off. Cleaned out my closets, projects were done. Enjoy it and be productive.

and yes, the goodbyes are the hard part.

Yeah, I have so many things that I've put off, that I will be able to do now.

Baylor is the #1 pass offense in college football. Florence is legit and terrence williams is the best WR in the country IMO. I agree on Diaz, dude seem's lost.

That 1 surprised me. I had to look that 1 up. Seen they were #2 overall offense, and Florence was #9 passer. Think those #'s are inflated by who they have played so far. If they still stand there Nov.24th, I'll be a believer. They have OU, TT, and KST in consecutive weeks. Williams is good for sure though. Glad to see a knowledgable fellow sports fan on here.

lol what's next: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/ncaaf-dr-saturday/mack-brown-complains-longhorn-network-negatively-affecting-texas-205045559--ncaaf.html

... Why do they serve seafood at aquariums?

I don't know why the serve seafood, but I hope it's good. I think I've decided on Corpus. Looking at the Raddison. It's a mile from aquarium, and close to a public beach.

I wouldnt call mcgee or north beach much of a beach... however, it's only 20 minutes to the real beach If you get a craving for pizza and beer, there's a place towards the bluff called BJ's pizza and beer... good stuff Also, dont forget to try boat-n-net while you're there. It's like In-N-Out for corpus, but shrimp and seafood. Tacobell prices, better than red lobster

Congrats on your new venture!

Awesome, must be very exciting!

Can't wait to check it out!

Very nice.

Can't wait!

Awesome! Good luck with everything!

My dad and me grabbed 1 each of those last week. They are nice. Did you get the yellow 1? It's color is awesome.

yellow and a rainbow looking one. Very nice colors. Whats the deal with their ebay? Sometimes when i search for listings with their name, nothing shows up..

Awesome. That yellow 1 stood out to me. They only have them once a week. It will be some more on there midweek. Pretty addicting huh? I think I've had my fix for awhile. Lol.

People still game on consoles? Who knew.

Do you know the prices of each?

499$ for XBOX and Kinnect, 399$ for PS4.

yikes, I didn't know that could happen either

Yep, for many it can be worse. Back when Mama (Laura) was on here, she ended up in the ER because of a bristle worm sting.

That's crazy. When I looked it up, it said a DR appointment could be required. Luckily it didn't get to that point. Had to finish breaking it down last night. There were still some CUC in there, but I saw more bristleworms. I just chunked it all. Wasn't taking that risk again.

I have sold many a car on CL...hated every experience...my thought on CL are summed up in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAhBHbyTfmM

I've bought and sold and have been satisfied overall with CL but there are flakes out there who seem to get a kick out of seeing what they can get away with. I refuse to accomodate anybody and if i get any kind of wiff of a game or some kind of pity card being played I'm not having anything to do with them. I also have a dedicated email address for CL and won't give out my # right away.

Yeah, I deal with craiglist a lot. I bought 3 tanks with livestock off someone 2 weeks ago. I've had really good, adn really bad expierences. I'll continue to do it, but this 1 just got to me. All of he rocks were dark purple at less then 1$ per pound. Can't beat that. I just really need live rock right now, and don't have the time for mine to cure. I'm selling 2 tanks this weekend, and I wanted to give the people a better deal because I know them and want to make su...

I don't think Ginobili will be at full strength, and Parker has really struggled this year. I think Nash will be back, but I don't see him contributing much. Jordan Hill though could be.

Parker has been amazing, just injured. But I am sure that was Pop's plan to rest him anyways. I don't think the Lakers have a chance. Sorry Niko. I know my Rockets will be pushed right out of the 1st round anyways but I will root like crazy for them.

I actually like the Rockets as well, and wouldn't be surprised if they make a series out of it with OKC. Harden will be motivated, and they both play uptempo. LA has a much better chance against SA then against OKC. I think that would have been a sweep or maybe 1 game for us.

Just ordered my PS4 controller and I'll give it a whirl on my PS3 on the last of us.

The Last of Us is an amazing game.

FML. Wife is going to be pissed she has 2 buy that a week later. That doesn't even include the games I will want.

If only AJ Green, Terrelle Pryor and Dez Bryant had lawyers as good as Johnny Cash...

I agree Victoly NCAA is crocked. They didn't want a battle. He better not sell them. Lol dsquared. I don't have enough $ for an autograph.

He got 4 tickets to Maroon Village as well. Not sure what it is. Some suite from 11-2.

I'm working too.

"working" here as well

I worked 6am to 6pm today

I've had no trouble with go daddy. But I don't think they are the best. I also don't use any of the tools. Just built my own and upload it.

Go with hostgator for the hosting until you need something more robust. I definitely recommend finding a good designer for it. It's typically a worthwhile investment. Make sure they build or use some sort of CMS so you don't need their constant attention. Even wordpress makes a good CMS if it's setup correctly.

my website is built with squarespace. It's very easy to use and has a lot of multifunctionality built in. I pay $14/mo. and am able to have different areas of the site password protected for different audiences. I'm able to integrate video and audio easily. My site is not flashy and I don't update it often - mostly because that business is not my primary line of work any more. The site is hosted through GoDaddy. Feel free to check it out: www.emilytannert.com (maybe thi...

Looking good. Just need frag tanks and BML fixtures to be completed. Might bring in another shipment of invertebrates and livestock.

Clowns from ORA. Check.... Got some false percs, true, premium snowflakes headed our way. Plus got a really cool cave basslet ordered as well.

Pics man, we all need pics

Only thing that is still messed up is the alarm. Guess the sensor got messed up.

WTF man, seriously?

I like the happy endings that are happening for you despite this wicked twist.

Yeah it was 4 a bulkhead. Had to go a different route for a sump.

what size

Thanks 4 looking out for me Bio. I ended going with a different setup. I might need to holler at you in the future for the plug. Its a 1.5". It will be my next project.

Chris told me about the Hasslet. Those are pretty awesome looking.

Do you know if any on this list are ever available? http://dsc.discovery.com/sharks/25-smallest-sharks.html

I don't. Thanks for posting it though. I'm going to research it.

Yesterday was today a day ago

Wait, why was Niko pumped about yesterday?

I got the new setup and 300$'s worth of coral. So tired from it I don't even feel like posting it yet. 1 of the coral rocks I got was so huge, that I had to redo all of my tanks to fit it. The seahorse tank was totally redone, but I love it more now. I'll be posting the new setup soon in tank builds.

What's PTO? Whatever it is I'll try it. Last time they extended me, I took LOA for a month. Only came back due to some hiccups in paperwork. My Dr. wasn't releasing my info. Went unpaid for a month. Figured I better get back to work with my wife's BDay and CMAS coming up. I got approved the day I returned to work. FML. Got a DR. apt scheduled for next week. LOA look out. HR not making acceptation 4 me. I have to wait till Feb.27th. Might accommodate me with shift change.

Got it. Personal Time Off. We call it PBA here. Personal Business Allowance. They are only giving me prorated time, due to closure of building. I usually get 4 weeks of vac, 2 weeks of pba, and 1 week of floating, but they only giving me like 5 days total.

wow.

The only explanation I saw was on Tanked. Pastor said all the different species living together shows unity. I can see why some members would be upset at giving tithe.

I'm sure other churches have a full time marine biologist like they do.

Lol.

David Aldredige is reporting that LA has 2 meetings scheduled with the 2 Mike's as due diligence, but Phil is overwhelming choice and is willing to come back. Best Sat in awhile.

tomorrow its on the texans!

Yeah, for sure. I picked them over Chi. Going to be an awesome game.

Tough loss.

It was a good game played by two great teams.

Jestep, I'm looking in the wilco area. Kind of open to an exact location. I like Hutto area a lot. Also like the 685 area. I have a couple more spots that I have an eye on. That was just the dream spot. I'll have to keep on dreaming. If these spots don't work out for me, I'll defintely take u up on that. Thanks for the offer.

NP. Commercial agents don't charge anything to the lessee. Ours was able to get us a nice movein bonus for remodeling and we got a few months free on a 3 year lease.

Yeah, I'm going to have to get that contact from you. That's a great deal. I'm going to shoot you a pm.
