    Newbee Test Kits

    Who makes the best test kits to get? I'm interested in hearing about ease of use and economy vs accuracy. Are there any to stay away from?

    RO/DI water preparation and storage

    Mike, That is just about the same as what I have in mind. I thought i'd use a brute for a mixing tank in my garage, and then another brute for RO/DI top off storage. I also picked up a couple of 24VDC lawn sprinkler valves that I will put in series before my Spectrapure. I'll use two float...

    RO/DI water preparation and storage

    I am just thinking about how to top off my tank. I have a 90GPD 5 stage RO/DI for a 120G tank with 50 Gal sump. I thought I would use an ATO device to manage the top off function by checking the level in my sump and then adding RO/DI to compensate for evaporation losses. The questions become...

    mcoomer's 180G Starphire build

    Was there an expiration date on the RTV? It seems kind of goofy that it would set up but not cure. We have not been having any really extreme cold or humidity. I am not sure what else might effect it.

    RETURNING TO SALT TANK AFTER 32 yr HIATIS!

    Welcome back. How do your shrimp get along with each other? I am also new and wondering a little bit about the compatability of shrimp with each other and also with fish.

    T12's-T5's

    I have the same Icecap ballast as you with only three T12 VHO lamps and then two 250 MH on separate ballasts. If all of your lighting is on just one ballast then you will not be able to simulate sunrise-sunset type events. T5 is generally way more efficient than T 12 so you will get more light...

    Starting my 150

    Looks good Mal. What color MH lamps are you using? Are you putting any flourescent actinic lights in there also?

    Starting my 150

    frequently, adjacent receptacles will be on differing circuits. That would help you out with getting some juice for your tank. plug in a simple table lamp and then cycle the circuit breaker to check it out.

    Fuge concept

    I think you are supposed to keep the flow slow in the fuge, so you can get the copepods growing
