    REEF NOOB NEEDS ADVICE on Custom All-in-one tank design

    Greetings Josh and welcome to RF and to the hobby. Your attention to detail and research and planning skills are quite impressive. You have quite an interesting design. Traditional logic in the hobby will say that you cannot successfully keep two mandarins in a newly established tank of only...

    New get together pig roast? frag swap? something?

    Seeing as a number of members are bringing Home Brew or equivalent, I was wondering if you all want me to bring my portable BAC meter from work? Its like the ones the cops use, blow and see if you are over .08 lol.

    Win for me!

    To convert it you would have to drill a 3rd hole. Going with a Herbie without the redundant backup is like driving without liability insurance, you can get away with it for a while, but there is hell to pay when it goes wrong. In my opinion you dont need a herbie on this system. Your tank has...

    UV Sterilizers

    I am leaning towards a Lifeguard Aquatics 25 watt UV unit which Becca can order for me at OBD. Any comments on this unit?

    UV Sterilizers

    Where do people typically place a UV in the plumbing. I am thinking of using the outflow of my Two Little Fishies carbon reactor to feed it. Plus or minuses to this? I like to minimize the number of pumps in my system, I have a greatly overpowered return pump which I will be replacing when...

    Water Cooler

    I am curious about something. I posted a non reef related post in the water fountain forum. I notice that the activity in the thread doesn't appear to show up on the front RF page for most recently active threads. Is this intentional? Hard for a comment to get any exposure when it is buried...

    Navy question

    I have a non reef related question, and because of the significant number of our forum members who are Navy, I thought this would be a great place to ask it. My son is in the US Navy reserve stationed at Whidbey. He has been in for about two years. Next drill weekend they are having some sort...

    Repairing or Recharging chillers?

    Dont mean to hijack the thread, but, Senji, you are HVAC guy? Our Gas Furnace died this winter and I will be looking to replace it before next winter. Do you do that kind of work?

    New get together pig roast? frag swap? something?

    what if we plumbed the AmpMaster into a keg of MicroBrew? We could have Craft Beer on tap at 4000 GPH.. i did the math, that works out to 142.2 ounces per second, or the ability to fill a 16 ounce red solo cup in .112 seconds.

    New get together pig roast? frag swap? something?

    Also noticed that no where does it state what time you want people to start showing up, noon? 1?, 2?, what time are you thinking? Will people be bringing frags to swap or equipment or stuff, or is this a social only event? If i remember correctly at the one last year people were talking...
