    Is this fully submersible?

    Thanks guys, I knew about letting it sit in the water for 20 minutes or so before turning it on, I just didn't know if this particular model was submirsible. I will just do as you suggest though and keep the top portion of it above the water level.

    Excess Salt?!?!?!?

    Thanks guys, I'm going to try and run my Remora to see if that will help to rid the tank of this excess salt.

    Excess Salt?!?!?!?

    Should I just filter it out through my skimmer then? Try and break them up by hand? What do you usually do twilliard?

    Excess Salt?!?!?!?

    IO salt at 78 degrees. Normally it dissolves, by sight, within 5 minutes or so.

    Excess Salt?!?!?!?

    I recently filled up a 30g tank using RODI water. I sprinkled a little less than the required amount of salt into the tank to let my two Koralia 3s mix the salt. Well two days later it still looks like a couple of teaspoons of salt are lying in the corners and swirling throughout the water...

    Is this fully submersible?

    I was given a heater not to long ago and am not quite sure if it is a fully submersible heater. It is a Marineland Dual Temp 300w. I noticed near the top of the heater body it has a line and says "water line" so my initial guess is no but I wanted to see if anybody knew for sure. Any help...

    Koralia Front Openings

    I have a couple of the Koralia 3 and I'm nervous about putting them in my tank with my clownfish as I'm afraid my clownfish will be able to swim through the openings in the front and get eaten up by the propeller. Does anybody know if this is possible or will the water flow created from the...

    Placement of Mag 3 in Water

    I have Remora with a Mag3. Should the Mag 3 be placed just underneath the water surface or should it run all the way to the bottom of the tank? The reason I ask is because the Mag 3 seems pretty heavy for the plastic arm of the Remora, I'm almost afraid it will snap the arm off. I thought it...

    Scuba diving

    Does anybody know of a good place to go in the S. Sound to get an open water certification? My wife and I are looking at obtaining this and possibly more if we end up enjoying diving. Thank you in advance for any advice/suggestions.

    Fans for MH

    How does everyone run power to their fans in their MH pendant? Do I need to plug the fans themselves into their own light socket or is there a way to hook them up to the retro fit MH wiring so that when the power for the MH goes on, the fans themselves will also start up? Forgive me for asking...

    :|Thanks, but I was hoping for something that will fit inside my pendant. I don't think this will work for what I'm looking for.

    Frag Tank Question

    I'm getting ready to set up my first frag tank and I had a couple of questions. What is the best glue/epoxy to use to set up my egg crate stand for my frags? I want to make sure that no chemicals leech out from what ever I end up using. Also does anybody know of any good websites, layout...

    Fans for MH

    This might seem like a dumb question, but i have a pendant, for my 250 watt MH that I need to get a couple of fans for (in the pendant). What is a good fan to get? I'm nervous that the plastic looking fans that you see for computer cases and such will melt underneath the heat of the 250 watt...

    Wiring MH Lights and Ballasts Help

    The diagram on the ballast should show you what you need to do. I have a retrofit as well and my is connected up exactly like the diagram that is on your ballast. Like trido said cut the factory ends off of your light then attach those wires to both of your yellow wires on your ballast. You'll...

    koralia powerheads

    cwby416, you'll have to let me know how you like it after they've been running on that controller for awhile. Ideally, like everyone else I would love to get something that will work but for as cheap as possible. It's hard for me to justify spending $150+ on a controller.......but I will if I...
