    Tank in the garage?

    Well we moved into the new home last Tuesday, and I set the tank up in the garage. I used shims to level it out, and put 1 300W heater in the sump. Then I placed a 800W heater with it's own controller in the DT. So far the tank seems to be doing fine. The garage has an 2X2 dog door installed...

    best reverse osmosis for tank & drinking?

    Look at Bulk Reef Supply.com, they have good videos that answerd a lot of my questions. I bought their 75GPD Deluxe system, but havent set it up yet, so I don't know how it'll perform.

    Tank in the garage?

    How many of you have had a tank in the garage of your home, in the middle of winter? I'll be moving into our first home next week and won't have the new 180gallon set up in time to move the current tank over. I'll need to set it up in the garage, but am concerned that my 300W heater won't be...

    Death Penalty Gone Wrong!!

    It looked like that one guy was trying to, but epic fail. I remember the first time I saw the "Jaws" series. I was just a kid, but couldn't take a shower for a week for fear or death by a shark.

    I went with the RO 3000INT, rated for 300gallons. We'll see how it works. I have the tank, sump, lights, skimmer, still need the pumps, and furniture but i'm close. I may need your help rigging this thing up. Meg and I got the new house, and hope to move in next week.

    What is your calcium level??

    Hey Krish you should do one of these with ALK, cause I end up testing it everyday in hopes of keeping it in check. Just an idea. As far as calcium goes, I find that the calcium levels take to much work to supplement it, so I use Tunze salt and it stays around 400. I used to use Brightwell and it...

    I didn't read anything that made me think you owe an apology, but that's just me. We live in a way to PC, and sensitive society anyway. I'll be your friend :razz:!
