    well I am always down for help....it has just become more complex than need be...I set it up so I can experiment with an algae turf scrubber...that and I am attempting to go completely "powerhead-less"...ambitious I know...but...what the hell right? if anyone wants to help feel free to PM me

    sorry about that...I have been in plumbing hell....I borrowed 2 cans from Cool Breeze but then I bit the bullet and got my own RO today...but I may take you up on using it some other time
  6. Capt. Obvious
    you are correct...my mistake
  7. Capt. Obvious
    HA!...whoever bought it from you decided they didn't want it i guess....it is Craigslist now.(for $10 MORE)

    dunno if you will find ANY 10's that are NOT tempered....most those little guys use all tempred glass....1t may have been 15.99 for the 5gallon and 24.99 for the 10gallon...don't remember exactally...just know they were cheap.

    I think the 10gallon tanks at aquatek are something around $15 ...just an idea....i may have a 10 lying around...lemme check my attic
  10. Capt. Obvious

  13. Capt. Obvious

  14. Capt. Obvious
    need to borrow one just for the day (have to transport approx 250 gallons) I don't want to have to make a dozen trips
  15. Capt. Obvious
    I wasn't looking for anything in general...wasn't for my tank just some general rules people use themselves.... I.e. "4 watts of heater per gallon"... or whatever

    me too actually...even though it isn't entirely true...but then again what would hollywood be without propagating misconceptions
  19. Capt. Obvious
    looking for some basic sage wisdom. examples would be lbs of sand/gal wattage of light/gallon lbs of live rock/gallon amount of powerhead and qty/gallon sump overflow/return per gallon cleanup crew size how much to feed/how often refugium size per gallon etc. I am well aware that there are no HARD SET rules in this hobby and it all depends on tank residents etc...just looking for some general people's tidbits of info...pick your brain if you will... let the information sharing begin!!!

    Ok so would cleaning it out and say...painting it black solve the issue ( i see a clear tube and I want to paint it black....)
  21. Capt. Obvious
    self correcting my spelling.... groth = growth
  22. Capt. Obvious
    basically the title says it all.. over the past 3 days the J tube of the protein skimmer on my daughter's 28 bowfront has began growing some sort of brown algae (internally). but the display is fine. do I need to clean this out or just leave it be? all tank levels are optimal. will post pictures later
  23. Capt. Obvious
    ...you sound like my wife
  24. Capt. Obvious
    good to hear...now after all that trouble....how realistic is it?
  25. Capt. Obvious
    $54.13 after tax....I tipped the waiter $20....so $75 bucks after some heavy tiping. but would have been in the low to mid $60's with a standard 10-15% tip. Way cheaper than what I normally spend at Truluck's or Southwest Grill (in the 4 seasons)
