    The Beginning: Jeff's 60 Gallon

    Ilham - Fishing trip was cancelled due to snow dumping in the surrounding areas. As you can see, I filled up my time with something else. :rolleyes: Jeff

    The Beginning: Jeff's 60 Gallon

    Looks like this was the first major miscalculation of this project! Whoops! Oh well.... I read somewhere that the gph is reduced by 40%. There isn't a ton of flow coming out of the CL, but the flow from the Sea Swirl definitely compensates. Plenty of random swirling water patterns. I may...

    The Beginning: Jeff's 60 Gallon

    The Dart is rated at a maximum 3600gph @ 0’ head. The input for the CL is @ 1.5" thru 2 strainers and the output is @ 1" thru 6 holes. I plan on splitting 4 of the 6 holes to create more of a random pattern of flow. Along with the Sea Swirl and ¾” loc-line, I’m thinking that I...

    The Beginning: Jeff's 60 Gallon

    Thanks Scott. I plan on taking it down to the garage today to water test. I was up till 1:30am last night priming, gluing, and putting teflon on everything. I'm pretty sore today too, believe it or not! Here are some pics of the front. I was too tired to do anything more last night...

    Thanks Krish. Here are a few more photos while I'm in the middle of my PVC glue high. These face masks don't do that much and having to keep the door open in low 30 degree weather isnt any fun. :( Jeff

    The Beginning: Jeff's 60 Gallon

    After many months of gathering all the equipment, a failed first attempt at plumbing, a 6 night vacation inside Hurricane Wilma, parting out my first aquarium and many soft corals, new carpet installation, and countless hours of the wife nagging... I have finally taken the next step of plumbing...

    snowboard bindings

    Chris - Have you tried craiglist? You can find just about anything on there. You just missed the winter snow sports expo at the seahawks expo center about a month ago. They were selling brand new, but last years models for like $40 or less. There was also a swap where people brought their...

    snowboard bindings

    Just got back from Snoqualmie. Snow was dumpiing in the morning, but it cleared up and we had a great day. Only 1/4 or 1/3 of the lifts were operational though. Jeff

    Hey Krish - tell us about the rock on the back wall of your tank

    Hey Don - I'll be in Cozumel in less than 2 weeks and will be taking pics with our digi cam. Just got the dive case a month ago! Hopefully the storming will be over and the water will be calm enough by the time we get there to get some magnificent shots of the Palancar Reef. I'll make sure to...

    Reeftopia Group Order

    Just getting the rock semi-ready for the new tank. All the new critters look to be doing a great job in the 2-3 days that they've been in there. I'm probably going to take out all the rock this weekend and scrub as much off algae as possible. Then the clean-up crew can polish it off! I...

    any Tobacco Pipe Smokers?

    My wife actually encouraged me to smoke cigars over cigarettes. She even went out and bought me a humidor. I don't do much of either anymore. Quit smoking cigrarettes over 3 months ago when my boss said that I couldn't do it for a year. Haven't had a problem with it and will be $200 richer...

    No way! :lol: Those were for someone else. I only got 4 scarlett reef hermits. I did put in 24 snails and 4 lettuce slugs.

    Pre-spawning Ocellaris clowns

    I thought it was funny that you were sniffling Ilham! I was sick today too, so I'm not one to make fun, but at first I thought that you were crying tears of joy! lol... I can't to see where you put these fry when they finally get to that stage! Jeff

    Reeftopia Group Order

    Don - The main cap colony is still very much intact. In fact, I have so much of it broken off, that if anyone needs/wants any come by and get a frag. I am more than likely going to need to frag it down even more for it to fit in my new 60g! I have been going without a cleanup crew for so long...

    Don! Thank you again for the Cap colony! I found a nice place for it in my tank. When I got home, it seemed like there were a thousand frags of it, but it still looks great! The order went really well on my side. I hope everyone picked up their livestock. I think that my clarkii made...

    any Tobacco Pipe Smokers?

    I've never tried a pipe before, but it's on my 'to do' list one of these days. Right now, I am an occassional cigar smoker. I love me a good Monte Cristo! Is puffing a tobacco pipe any different from cigars? Jeff
