I did something like this years ago using sealed blue computer case mod lighting. For about .99c each you can get 1' fixtures that are watertight. Awesome mods!

It hid in my tank all the time, so give it a few days...

I bought the DIY window screen kit at Lowes for about $10. Enough materials to make the two for my 90g and the one for my Solana. I originally used the black bird netting from the garden section, but it was a bit too large for my tastes so I switched it out for the netting at Bulk Reef Supply (http://www.bulkreefsupply.com/store/catalogsearch/result/?q=netting&x=0&y=0)

I also have several plastic micro scrapers (a few bucks at any pet store). Nice alternatives to razor blades. Let me know if you want to borrow one.

After a trying week, the site should be back to stable with the most recent software upgrade. Please let us know if you encounter any difficulties.

As part of the database rebuild and upgrade, the system re-sent open and expired invoices that had been created in the last several months but not completed. If you have received such an invoice and did not want it please disregard it and it will expire again on its own. Of course, if you want to join or renew your membership, the store functionality and paypal should now be working again.

Thanks for your patience, and thanks to the staff and support team for their help.

I believe that both Chad & Belinda and Mhart have run mud, and subsea knows quite a bit about it. Threads here:

I'm changing the name of your thread to include this as it seems to be the topic.

I ended up putting screens on both my tanks the day after I had a clown jump from each and die (the female of the two breeding pairs in both cases). I wasn't sure if it was the full moon or what, but they both jumped the same night, different rooms. Screens are cheap, light, and easy to move, so no reason not to do it to protect the little guys for when they get crazy ideas in their heads.

All sold.

All sold but the Apex Jr.

Very cool! As impressive as it is though, I'm wondering how they keep their sand so clean.

Really glad to have you aboard. The fact that you're doing this as a family will make it fun and educational for everyone. Welcome!

Please try now and let us know if you still have an issue with it.

Figure there are a few members here who would appreciate this:

Hey guys as an update, when you head down (especially if you leave ANY TIME after about 10am on Friday, or plan to arrive in Port A before midnight), make sure you check the ferry wait time here before proceeding to the ferry line: http://www.cityofpor...xdot/status.pdf

Recently they've had a couple ferrys out, and it has been gridlock trying to get into Port A on Fridays (talking ferry waits upwards of 2 hours).

If the wait is 45 min or more, I highly suggest driving around/ through Corpus into Port A.

Great tip, thanks for sharing!

Hey, what's the address for pick up? I get off around 8 and can go pick up tonight.

Check your PM's, I sent a message to all buyers.

Give me a shout, I have one you can use.

Glad you like it, and welcome back to the site! This is just another example of the fabulous work being done by our ARC Graphic Designer Kevin Babcock!

Hi Chipp, some of the events you selected conflict: Aquarium tour and fish collecting Sat afternoon; and MAAST BBQ Dinner and ARC Bonfire. Just wanted to clarify for others planning their schedule that you might be able to do both but that you'll most likely miss part of each event if you're doing the other.

Mike,

It would be helpful if you put time and date with the events. This would assist people with evaluating options.

I want to pipe in at this time and say that I am "stoked up" on "La bonne temps roulee".

Patrick

There's an itinerary in the first post that is being continually updated.

In fact, we've just updated the following items:

*** Revisions ***

Saturday Day - I need to know who (if any) want to attend the State Aquarium and tour, as a reservation has to be made in advance. My family has decided that after having done the SeaWorld tour we would rather just enjoy the beach and fish/collect on that Saturday afternoon.

Saturday Night - MAAST will be using the Beachgate meeting room for the BBQ dinner with speaker Paul Whitby of High Definition Corals. His topic will be pests in the marine aquarium and how to recognize and treat them. There is a cost of $25 to attend (MAAST has been generous enough to offer a discounted rate of $7.50 per adult (13+) for ARC Premium Members, or free for attendee and one guest if a MAAST charter member) . Please respond in this thread if you plan to attend (and total head count).

OR

ARC will be hosting an alternate bonfire on the beach. Our own subsea (Patrick) has offered to cook for us. The plan is that some of us will fish and crab Saturday afternoon. Assuming we catch enough, we'll cook what we catch at the bonfire. Assuming we don't, we'll augment our catch from the store and still cook at the bonfire, with cost being about $10 per person to eat at the bonfire. Who is interested in this option? Please respond in this thread if you plan to attend (and total head count).

I will also be ordering T-shirts, so please let me know if you're interested in the new club dri-fit tshirts or in the event t-shirts (limited number), shirts will be $20 each. I don't want to end up with extras, so please list quantities and sizes if you want them! They will be available in blue or kelly green with white printing.

All accounted for....See you all Thurs night.

Still one left...

I have a used AT&T 3g Iphone for sale. It is currently jailbroken but I can restore it to factory firmware. It comes with box/manual, usb cable + wall adapter, It is in good shape and works, and is currently setup to work with the pay-as-you go Straight Talk service (but can be used with AT&T or TMobile contract).

Asking $135

That's weird. It was showing the pics this morning.

Most likely an issue with the server downtime yesterday. We had to restore backups of the images so there was a window of time in which uploads were lost. You'll need to re-upload. Sorry!

tried to vote but I'd have to vote for each column.

Also I have an unopened redseapro, was going to start using pro but I have too many tanks for expensive salt ATM.

Poll fixed and prices updated.
