  1. Yeah, after digging around I cant find them either. That would be really nice to have. If you find one, post a link here on ARC.
  2. EBay has the American DJ brand that has the individual switchs for cheap. http://cgi.ebay.com/AMERICAN-DJ-1800W-POWE...1QQcmdZViewItem Als, Amazon has the same one for $30. Eight outlets that have individual on/off switches.
  3. That was too funny! Thanks for sharing.
  4. Thanks Karen. Just call and let me know when you plan on stopping by.
  5. Anyone have a dresser for a 1 year old's room? Looking for something thats wood, not painted, and cheap. Anyone have something sitting around? Shoot me a pic!
  6. No rush. Whenever you have the time. If you cant get them in your SUV I can drop by and grab them.
  7. Try to get some coral first. If no one bites, I will take them off your hands.
  8. Thank you everyone. I appreciate the replies and advice.
  9. If you cant find a trade I may be interested in buying one. I need somthing to store my sand in. BTW...How's the goby?
  10. All the more reason to build the tank in the wall! I am still trying to talk my wife into that. So even if the sun does not shine directly into the tank, it could still cause algae? The room where my tank sites gets the morning sun but the light does not come directly into the windows.
  11. I will be doing that once I get some additional rock. I am going to wait for that big IRS return and buy another 100 pounds of rock. I was thinking of getting some marco rocks and seeding it with a few pieces of my current rock. I will kill the rocks that have algae growing on them. It's strange, there are only a few rocks that will grow the algae. It never goes to the others.
  12. Thanks everyone. Should the snails be okay with what little algae is in the tank? The only ones I worry about are the nassarious (spelled wrong). Should they be okay as well?
  13. The skimmer is pulling less these days. Thats is why I was thinking of pulling it out and adding a fuge. The only way I can go completely dark is to place a tarp over the tank. There are windows close to the tank but the blinds are always closed. The tank lights have been off for about a month now.
  14. Do you think a skimmer will be more benificial to the tank then a fuge?
  15. Thought about adding one as well. I was also thinking I could remove the skimmer and use that space for a fuge. So then the question is...which is better to have at this point, a skimmer or a fuge? I know my phosphate levels are around 0.5, everything else is 0's. I have also been running a PhosBan reactor but it's just not bringing them down.
  16. Hey everyone. I have no more fish in the tank so is there any need to run the skimmer? All that left are about 50 snails and crabs. I am fighting a hair algae issue so I sold the fish and plan to let the tank sit with no lights for a while. Is it worth running the skimmer during this time? Tank has been running for 1 year.
  17. I had RSVP'd a while back but am not going to make the meeting today. Hope to see everyone at the next meeting. James
  18. Once my TDS readings hit 1ppm I order new DI. Am I wasting my money? What does everyone consider a safe ppm for TDS?
  19. Got mine off ebay as well. I think it was $20 shipped. Hanna is the brand.
  20. LOL. It's actually WPF, Windows Presentation Framework. Maybe they should have called it WTF! James
  21. Yes, but the little tag did not say anything about outdoor use only. It's brass, not plastic or tin. Some may freak about it being brass but as long as it's not touching saltwater. it's fine.
  22. I bought my Y fitting at Home Depot. Wal-Mart has them too.
  23. I wonder if these mods will add any additional heat to the tanks. If anyone knows, please post.
  24. jsr

    Refractometer

    Yes. Just think about mixing saltwater for water changes. You can match the tank water and your mix and have perfect salinity.
  25. Nice. I would like to see them run and what they can do. They have a very interesting design.
