    Consolidate electrical outlets, help please!

    Ok, I need pictures, diagrams, parts lists, etc. for a centralized electrical box for my tank. What I'm talking about, in case my verbage isn't right, is one of those wooden or metal boxes with a whole bunch of outlets to plug all of my stuff into to get rid of the very long daisy chain of...

    Anyone buy fish from Petco?

    OK, Redmond Petco is the exception. I have tested the water from a local Petco to find, can you believe it, copper in amounts that turn poly filter blue overnight! I have only bought damsels there and they all died. Guess it served the purpose I got them for: to cycle the tank!! ANd don't...

    Colt coral

    I stabbed it (at least that's what it felt like!) with a toothpick to a rock. I also put the rock and colt in a mesh breeder basket to help cut down on flow and those lovely gobies who like to perch on it.

    halides vs. power compacts

    Hey Anthony! First, I'll confess that I did miss your fragging demo the other night in Richland, but I think you did mostly SPS. I am fragging my lovely colt coral. I have slit it where it was cleaving and put a piece of LR in there for it to attach to. Apparently it didn't like my idea much...

    Big Meeting in Tri-Cities

    A little nervous not knowing many at first, but as with any hobby gathering there weren't many strangers come leaving time. Great job organizing. Loved the speakers, tour, and food. Always good to put a face to a name. Thanks and good luck all, see you next time. --jenny

    Great Conference!

    Even though Barbie already spoke for me, I'll say that I had a lot of fun! The speakers had wonderful information and experience to share. I enjoyed talking to everyone and seeing the tanks. I am, however, certain I am too old to stay up that late. Next year, there's a hotel in my future...
