I agree, the blood wont hurt the tank any. I sliced the side of my hand open on some metal on a pump and didn't even realize it because my hands were already wet. Well it had been dumping into my sump for a good minute or two as I was finishing the install. No problems that I saw. My hands are...

Well I went down to Brown Bearing and low and behold they had it! So I got 3 of them just in case. Got it home and it did fix the leak. However now I am having trouble getting the pump to start up consistently and also getting the CO2 give me the right bubble count. So I have to pause this...

So I decided to get a wild hair and finish up my stand. So here are some pics of that and some new habitants! Although my Randalls goby is still MIA... :( No body or anything. Kind of curious with my mandarin getting a fin ripped off and now this guy is missing, I think I have a fish assassin in...

Thats not true at all...thats how I still have snails in my tank! My trigger keeps eating them but some how they never die off. Even in my old tank my snails were always reproducing and you could see the little baby snails on the glass all the time. So congrats big daddy! lol...JK Happy New Year!

FreakinReefin- Yeah I was tightening it down like you would a tire. Kind of in a star pattern going back and fourth until they are all snug. Thank you for the advice on that though. It took me a while to realize that I was tightening it down wrong but even with tightening it right it was still...

Looks good! I'm diggin the music! haha

I will give it a shot. I am going to replace the gasket first just to be safe with one just a little bit thicker and then use the vaseline to finish it off. I am going to be gone for a 3 weeks in January so I don't want this thing to start back up when I'm gone.

I may have to give that a try. It doesnt appear to by dried out but it may just be too warped to put it back into its right spot. I cant get it to seat right so when I put the lid back on there is always part of it that isn't seated and therefore causing the leak. I found some nylon screws at...

Pressure from the pump? I haven't turned the CO2 on yet and its leaking pretty good.

I finally got my calcium reactor up and running however I cant get it to quit leaking around the seal at the top. Is this a universal seal (one size fits all) or what? I dont know what kind it is as I got it used on here. Also I keep breaking the heads off the nylon screws trying to tighten it...

I can frag it when ever you want one! As far as fish goes, I just lost my green mandarin and flasher wrasse this week but I still have quite a few left. A coral beauty, bursa trigger, two GSM clowns, two true percs, two anthias (different species males), yellow tang, randalls shrimp goby, chalk...

Acrylic with a black back

LMAO!!!!

Yeah the Choati's are really cool and he finally got one in but it died the next day after he got it. So thats when I did a little more research into it and found out about the whole not living more than 3 months thing. I guess that kinda make sense with the corals at night.

Airphotog- Thanks, I would have done that but its a little late now. LOL...They are already glued in. estanoche- That makes perfect sense. I just have to test when the lights are off. I do have a question though, why does the ph change between night and day? I did get the leopard wrasse from...

Just wait until the breakin period is over! I bet its going to produce some even nastier stuff for you!

I will try and also test the PH in the middle of the night. I have never heard of that but there is a lot I havent heard of before! lol...Hopefully i can get my calcium reactor up and running soon so I can quit worry about all these ph and alk issues!

Your tank is looking awesome! Definitely a lot cleaner than mine! lol...Your SWC-250A looks a lot like my ATI. Hopefully its pulling out some pretty nasty stuff for you!

Yeah, my trigger is constantly grabbing up sand and dumping it everywhere. Not it one area though. Maybe the flow. But it has been fine up until recently. The weird thing is the sand is stuck together with kind of a glue. Not a very strong glue but it comes off in flakes instead of just blowing...

Just noticed this morning that my mandarin got a fin ripped out of his body. There was a giant hole where the fin was. Needless to say he did not make it. I dont know what did it though. My suspicions are on the crab or the trigger. The trigger has been so well behaved though I really don't...
