    good Thai restaurant in Seattle

    My Sister-in-law works at Thai-One-On in Lake City, and Thai Ginger in Pacific place. Both are great! My personal favorite (from my college days) is Thai Tom on the Ave in the U District. It's small, cramped, delicious, and there always a line. Try the swimming ramma... awesome! Tup Tim Thai on...

    Seachem reef adv. calcium drip....alkalinity?

    I did this for almost two years... and it got very old, but once I got a CA reactor established it's been so much easier. I wish I had done it sooner.

    Plumbing supplies in Seattle

    Hi Ghanzni, Just about all the PVC and John Guest supplies can be found at Home depot with exception to the bulkheads. I've bought my bulkheads from Blue Sierra, and Barrier Reef.

I spoke with my LFS, and they said they were experincing...

    Calcium Reactor

    Over the last two years I uses liquid and powder CA. Looking back on it now I wish I would have gotten a CA reactor much sooner. Constant measuring and dosing had gotten very old. With my CA Reactor my SPS ans LPS are growing like crazy and look so much healthier. If you plan on tetting into SPS...

    Mortin Salt for Water Softening

    Yes... the salt pellets. I know my water out of the tap has a TDS between 35and 45 here in Seattle. I doub't it much different 7 miles down the road. It makes sense to soften the water before going through RO/DI, but last I spoke with this shop they do not have a RO system in place. I'm thinking...

    Mortin Salt for Water Softening

    Hypothetical: If you had a fish store in the Seattle area would you have a reason to use this product for your freashwater/saltwater applications? Something I saw today has me wondering...

    RO/DI like watching paint dry...

    Your RO/DI will not speed up, and if you have a 75 gpd system and a 72 gal tank... then you are looking at almost 24 hours to fill the tank. The speed I beleive is determined by the filters and the water pressure, but in no way will it exceet 75 GPD... So rest easy. I have the 50 GPD system...
