  1. keep up chimera thats what you where qouted from the laser place though wasnt it??
  2. yeah as long as you get that insurance form filled in before she checks her bank balance 8) you'll still be able to see it from the couch, thats the important thing
  3. one day when i get enough money ill employ some student to adjust the flow on them every 15 mins and to turn it off when im feeding
  4. i was expecting about 100 so not to worried about 20$ more, chimeras little one cost him 90$ (that was laser cut though)
  5. the only problem i have with mine (3 actually) first of all they need to be quite a bit below the water level other wise they suck down the air from the surface (i suppose thats normal for streams as well) second it doesnt tend to start autonomously when i unplug it or if the power is cut for other reasons (babies pulling out plugs to put their fingers in the sockets ) third they arent controlable.
  6. got the qoute back for the overflow. 120$ should get it thursday or wednesday
  7. why thread something inside the tank???? that wouldnt cause a drip out of the tank, sounds like the bulk head wasnt siliconed correctly or the threading to the bulkhead wasnt right
  8. i guess there could always be some miscommunication between you and the guy doing the gibing
  9. dammit. i'll have a word to her.
  10. yeah i figured id go with something like yours as you seem happy with it. what height di you do yours at? and how much linear overflow is there?
  11. Hey Just planning the acrylic overflow. im wanting to have the water level fairly high in the tank but not overflow it. does anyone know a trick for working out the space needed for over flow combs? ie how high they should be and how far apart each tooth should be.
  12. got tanks. will post up some pics later.
  13. wouldnt they have some kind of coating?? i would like some of those gloves but hopfully once the new tank is all setup i wont have my hands in there much at all
  14. it all depends on what your wanting the light for. im not going to light mine unless i decide to use the realestate for frag grow out.
  15. serious? let us know if you need any help
  16. some have big tanks some have little tanks. i have both
  17. not sure i would just find something that you like the look of
  18. you might find theres only one or two around
  19. protein floats. skimming from the surface water will make a difference as to the efficiency of the skimmers performance, this reason alone might decide what type of skimmer i finally decide on.
  20. we should look at some bulk salt paul, i might be able to convince murray to cut us a deal. ro/di is great to remove dissolved solids in the water that you use for topups and asw, i will be getting one eventually
  21. well the final price for the tank 450$ (with diamante) is double the price of the tank without diamante 205$ so still very reasonable. i doubt it would be economical on a tank any larger. can't wait to see it though (shhhhhh dont tell claire)
  22. not sure exaclty how much ill need yet, all depends on what i decide to do for the aquascape ill probably use alot less than half though
  23. i doubt ill use a whole one, they are 4 foot by two foot
  24. whats the idea behind the half way drain? (used to empty tank or for large water changes?)
