    I Think I May Lose My Grape Hammer

    Is it the "Waterbug?" I think I'm doing the right thing by getting the extra 8 outlet energy bar. :quest: I think I should be able to use up the extra 8 outlet energy bar, I figure with the 1 Chiller, 3 Fans, 2 MHs, 1 T5, 1 Fuge Light, 1 SVHO, 4 circulation pumps in Sump, 2 Vortechs in...

    I Think I May Lose My Grape Hammer

    On a different Subject - Controllers, I posted this comment / question on my Journal Page, and am placing it on this thread too. TY for you reading this and posting back :0) Well, the tank is looking respectable, again, considering the baking it took. Quick action saved the day. Finished...

    I Think I May Lose My Grape Hammer

    TY CR. I'm guessing you're referring to my question of adding a UV sterilizer; and that would add the heat. I'm wondering if a UV sterilizer might help rid my tank of cyano that has been developing in my 4 yr old display these past few months; and if so, how many GPHs should I run through...

    Well, the tank is looking respectable, again, considering the baking it took. Quick action saved the day. Finished (hopefully) pruning out some skeletons, and placed some frags too. All in all, I'm pleased with the corals' resilient abilities to bounce back, but not before taking the green...

    I Think I May Lose My Grape Hammer

    ...very similar indeed. I heat my mix water before pumping it into the sump, so I don't think I have a need for a heater either. My 2 x 100W EJs arrived and now am conflicted about putting them in. I'm getting ready to order a Neptune Controller, and would like some feedback and maybe...

    Thank you Mike H) . I get it. I'm in the process of putting together a new equipment list. The heater was definitely at fault. I ran the Theo 400 @ 77 degrees in 30 gallons of freshwater overnight and it got to 86.2 by morning, and the heat indicator was still on. Also I found the...

    Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I have a 2nd stage on my chiller I've been running the heater off of. Should I still be looking for a Ranco temp controller. Also, should I get a "single stage" Ranco, and run a twin female adapter off it for each of the heaters? And lastly, two...

    After speaking with Sun Light Supply, I feel pretty confident their Eco-Plus 1/4 hp didn't failed me. The real problem maybe the 400W Theo heater. I pulled it out of the sump a little while ago, and am testing in my mixing container. It was definitely set to 77 degrees, so what I'm still...

    Thank you. I agree. Looks like a head or two heads may make it. As nice as it looks it was starting to bother some of it's neighbors. I was planning to move to move it at some point, but now it doesn't look like I have too.... Thanks for landing on my post and for responding.

    Thx. H) I guess German women were aprons when they sweep as well as cook.... There is a German book that translates into the "Cook is also the Gardener." May be appropriate for Mycediums, as they have some nasty sweepers.... :) Now I'm trying to translate this Da Vinci quote that's...

    VERY CLOSE CALL For some reason my chiller circulation pump, Via Aqua, stopped working; then it got worse. This came to my attention after I noticed that my softies were looking stressed out. Ruling out my water parameters having done a water change the day b4, I started going through the...

    Thank you. It's always great coming home and finding all the critters doing well. I had Kris cut back feeding the corals by 50%, and that seemed to make a big difference with the overall cleanliness; and everything did just fine. On a separate note: I feel the Autobahn is way over...
