    To reef big? or not to reef big?? LOL

    You'll never look back...LOL... After 7' you'll start lookinga second big tank then the 10'ers then just one more... LOL Lighting is the biggest headache on longer deep tanks, but if your not planning on growing SPS on the bottom of the tank, your options are wide open. I think LED is just...

    Round 3 moving a tank?

    For that matter wood/plywood is cheap. east to redo the stand if all else fails. I think with 4 people we can use the stairs. Tape measure says it will go up them. The tank itself isn't that heavy... If I still had a sternum, we could have done it last night... I suppose thursday or...

    Round 3 moving a tank?

    I know I live up in the middle of nowhere, but the tank is in Bellingham, Thats not too bad right? This is going to be try 3 to get a tank out, as people keep canceling, or just plain not showing up to move it after confirming with me an hour before. OK enough ranting. Its a 260 gallon...

    skimmer help

    Glad its working... They may not officially be a company any more (yes I know part of it is now reef dynamics) but I'm a firm believer in my Euro reef skimmers. One of the few I haven't had an issue with at some point.. until I start modding them ...

    skimmer help

    the pump is designed to pull air and water at the same time, if it isn't pulling air then it is pulling all water.. so you will get more water flow

    skimmer help

    Fresh water and salt water work very differently with bubbles... it looks like you have it in the bath tub testing it so I assume its fresh water.

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    I'm always up for a beer... Can see how everything is growing in. Even that one SPS seems to have come back nicely. The guy is back from his vacation so at some point this week hopefully we can get everything else out of there and get Dave in to a big tank...

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    The nooksak is 1/4 mile from my house. Drive on beach access if you have a 4x4 I got the windows free and I framed it myself so no one got to screw me... I just have a very hard head...LOL... I still need to get some dimentions for it.

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    LOL... sorry, your first post, and I assumed incorrectly. Large acrylic pieces might have me interested actually. I hate glass for the above reason. Its supposed to be some heavy duty dual pained tempered and tinted piece. But not as heady duty as my head. Its a window, and intsalled in...

    Is there anything that eats featherdusters?

    I think they spwn faster than my leopard can eat them... Sooner or later I will catch the Xmas one and get him in the tank.

    Is there anything that eats featherdusters?

    since they are filter feeders, they are breeding like that because there is something to eat. If anything they are helping your tank. They do look a little ugly once you get an army though

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    Hah... they do come out... feeding stick is 1/2 way across the tank and empty. Thawing more shrimp now. I have got to zip tie those wires one of these days... only been annoying me for a year

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    How about a mess of update pics. I'm to sore for much else today.. I tore the diveder out, and as soon as I scrounge the cash for more rock from Marc, I'm gonna redo this whole mess. Planning on a full softy reef for Eels and angels. My goal is to get it stocked enough with all the fast...

    Rebirth of an old 300 gallon

    And it took me most of 3 hours to find em, but I did (the crosshatches). Sleeping within a couple inches of each other.... would have been easier to go to bed and wait till the lights came on, but that wouldn't be any fun...
