    best vinegar-water mix to clean skimmer?

    Wear safety goggles and don't breathe the vapors straight from the bottle. If you spill it straight onto your skin it can or will burn you. I used it a lot doing brick work as a job and have had it on my skin on many many occasions and a water rinse right away otherwise it will leave a burning...

    best vinegar-water mix to clean skimmer?

    The most cost effective vinegar to water ratio by far is none. I use muriatic acid I buy at Lowes and HD for use in swimming pools. 1/4 cup in five gallons of water goes a looooooooooooooooooooong ways. The gallon will cost about $12 but will last for several years.

    Ranco Dual Stage Temperature controller

    Two days and nothing. How about $30 or a trade? This is a great piece of mind for a frag tank or someone not using a controller of any kind. Far more reliable than a heater dial.

    Rock work!

    Fill it with coral and then it will be too difficult to aquascape. When it costs you $10 in IC gel every time you put your hands in the tank you will think twice before moving anything.

    My Apex is finally hooked up to the web. It only took me six hours to figure it out today with help from more than one source. I also signed up to reeftronics. You can take a look at my tank status and programming here. http://www.reeftronics.net/trido/apex-status

    210 In Wall

    Kirk, The Ozone generator has been running 24/7 and still wont bring my ORP up past 330. I actually smelled it in the tank room the other morning for the first time. I could smell more when I was welding at work the other day. Every time it starts to climb I feed heavy or do a WC. I don't dose...

    I'm real surprised I haven't update this since June of this year. Well, things have grown like weeds. Ive done some major fragging, and I've recently added quite a bit of new equipment. I also changed from Instant Ocean to IO Reef Crystals. I am not sure is the change in salt or the addition...

    How often do you blow your rocks off?

    I voted yearly, but it would be more like twice a year. LR does collect detritous and it is good to clean it off occasionally. Stay in the hobby 8-10 years. I can guarantee you won't have your hands in the tank every night.

    Ranco Dual Stage Temperature controller

    I guess I should add, $50 or best offer means make an offer if your interested. I'll take most trades too unless it's an anenome.

    Ranco Dual Stage Temperature controller

    After eight years I've decided to put all my eggs into one basket and trust my Neptune controller. Ranco controllers are known in the HVAC (heating and cooling) industry to be one of the most reliable long lasting controllers on the market. This thing has never failed me and has never needed to...
