    Cheapest place to get black plexiglass

    Don't know how often you make it this way. Tacoma Plastic supply sells scrap plastic for $3 a pound. I've also heard others mention the scrap bin at their local plastic outlets. I do remember someone last summer mention a place in Lynnwood that sold scrap by the pound. I assume your from BC, so...

    Can you glue Acrylic to glass?

    I want to say it's on the label, but I couldn't swear to that. The tube I have looks like a used up tube of toothpaste. Just use some common sense and you should be fine.

    Can you glue Acrylic to glass?

    If there is one thing that I would warn others about this glue is that it does not fill gaps so that all parts must be flat and square. It is the consistency of model glue so it will run as well if you over apply. Well I guess that's two things. It does out-gas significantly so make sure you...

    Seattle aquarium water?

    Welcome to RF. Get an RO unit...Hook it to the sink spicket when you need to make water. Don't ask permission to use it, just ask forgiveness later it it's a problem. Just make sure you set the timer on the stove so you don't forget about it and flood your neighbors.;)

    Couple Clean Up Crew Questions

    I assume you mean the rest of the run is flat (horizontal)... Sounds like you 4.5 of Head height (vertical). This makes a lot more sense to me. While you will lose some head pressure on a long horizontal run, it is minimal compared to 18' straight up. Bye the way, welcome to RF.

    Couple Clean Up Crew Questions

    I have to agree, I did a quick search for Mag 7 flow rates and the three brands I looked at had a max head cut off from 10.5 - 12.5 feet. Are you sure it's a mag 7 and/or you have 18' of head height.

    My new SWC 200 extreme skimmer?

    Actually, water backs up in the air tube when the pump isn't running... This can be a problem with all pinwheel and mesh mod Skimmers. Glad to hear your on the right track...

    My new SWC 200 extreme skimmer?

    Have you removed the cover and looked at the impeller? Mine came with the mesh mod already installed... As far as noise goes, it quieted down after a couple weeks. Although it was never that noisy to begin with.Are you sure it is picking up the air properly? When mine doesn't it sounds like...

    sump help

    The EV Series skimmers are designed to run in sumps WITHOUT BEING RAISED. The output gate valve has been increased to a height of 10" (EV-120/180 models), which means that as long as your sump level is 9" or lower you will not need to worry about fluctuations having an impact on skimming...

    Replacement bulb for CPR Refugium Lights

    Hey Dave thanks for the kind offer... I just bought two of these from them before I saw this. Good deal on PC bulbs.

    Replacement bulb for CPR Refugium Lights

    While I suspected that, I wanted to be sure before I forked out $30+shipping for a bulb that wouldn't work. I've got enough crap in my basement that I'll never use as it is.;) I was also having trouble even finding any 36W- straight pin PC bulbs.

    Replacement bulb for CPR Refugium Lights

    Thanks Mike, this is what I wanted to know. What are you guys using as a substitute for the original? The one that came with my used fuge works, but only appears to grow stew at this point.

    Replacement bulb for CPR Refugium Lights

    Where can I buy replacement bulbs for my cpr refugium light fixture... No one seems to sell these on line at all. They are distributed by Finnex Technology International. They don't sell bulbs on line. There are lots of these things out there. So, what are those of you who own these using as...
