    Arnold's tank crash - stupid power outage!

    Sorry to hear about the crash! When the power goes it surely is a nightmare. Last year a bunch of us were without power in the Sacramento area for a day and beyond. Those of us fortunate enough to be around our tank when the power went down scrambled for generators or inverters and deep cycle...

    My Coral Pic in Advanced Aquarist

    Hi Everyone! Some time ago I posted a pic on RC about my Blue Clove coral. It had eggs and I was thinking that I was imagining things so posted the pic. I was thinking snail eggs or something of the like. Well, I was wrong, my Blue Clove had gone into sexual reproduction! About a week later a...

    Recommendations on heater

    So far I am seeing most people giving the thumbs up to Ebo Jagers on this and other forums. So I think this is the heater for me. Thanks everyone!

    Recommendations on heater

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I actually do have a controller, but my current heater is not staying on when it should. during the day it's not a problem as my nano is kept plenty warm by the MH lights. At night the temp is dropping 2-3 degrees.

    Recommendations on heater

    Well, I need to replace one of my heaters, and this time I would like to get a good one. I don't mind paying more if I know that it is reliable and accurate. Any suggestions?

    Lost Glasses at Tank Tour

    Max, Thanks for holding them for me. Unfortunately I'll be in the Sacramento area for most of the week, so it might be next week before I can come and get them. Levi's right, I just needed an excuse to go back to your shop :)

    Lost Glasses at Tank Tour

    Hi Jason, Yep, they were clear glasses, a black wire frame, somewhat narrow and rectangular in shape. That was probably them trying to make their great escape! My girlfriend had to do the driving tonight as I couldn't see anything without them ::)

    Lost Glasses at Tank Tour

    Hi All, Don't know how they slipped off, but I seem to have lost my regular glasses. I believe I lost them somewhere at Aquarium Showcase as I was heading out to my car. ::) I changed into my sunglasses and haven't seen them since. So if any of you all spotted them on the run and managed to...

    Maximum 2-Part Dosing

    I have the Litermeter III with one additional external dosing pump. It's worked well so far, but it is pricey and only comes with one pump, so if you want to dose both Alk and Ca you will have to buy an additional external dosing pump. The Litermeter can utilize up to 3 dosing pumps so if you...

    Maximum 2-Part Dosing

    I have a 28g tank, and when I first started hand dosing it was fine, but as time went on (and things grew in my tank) I was finding that I was having to dose so frequently, that I ended up getting a dosing pump. Now things are much more stable as a result.
