Whats up fellas! I used to go by the name of Phisigs79 about 12 years ago. I actually was TOTM way back when. Anyways after all these years I’m back! Just wanted to see who is all still here. I know Chip said he was. Is Howard still in here?

SORRY

I see my blue snowflake clove polyps have made it to alot of tanks here in wamas

watchman

NICE WORK

what was the problem?

It must be conected to a GFCI somewhere in your house. Located all the GFCI's in your house and make sure its not tripped. If you turned the breaker on and it didnt fix the problem it has to be a gfci tripped somewhere. It could be a gfci on another floor thats hooked up to it. It happened to me once to an outside plug on the made level of my house and i looked everywhere and it was a tripped gfci in the basement

Found this: For those who are interested, the following artificial seawater recipe is taken from "Chemical Oceanography" by Frank Millero. It makes a recipe that matches 35 ppt seawater in terms of major ions, but does not try to match all minor and trace elements, most of which will be present as impurities in the major elements. 23.98 g sodium chloride 5.029 g magnesium chloride 4.01 g sodium sulfate 1.14 g calcium chloride 0.699 g potassium chloride 0.172 g sodium bicarbonate 0.100 g potassium bromide 0.0254 g boric acid 0.0143 g strontium chloride 0.0029 g sodium fluoride Water to 1 kg total weight.

I would be interested in learning more. First thing that came to my mind was being able to mix your own salt and adjusting ingredients to the levels you like to keep your tank.

you can put me down

I am headed out of town for a week and i need someone to keep a eye on my tank while i am gone. Ideally i need someone to come every other day to feed the fish and check out the tank to make sure everything is running ok. Anyone in the Haymarket area that might be able to help. Dates are 1/8-1/15

you should bring all your corals and put them in my 120g

I vote to have this "Chris" person banned for life! They just dont get it!

I do have a sump pump and didnt realize that the floor drain wasnt attached to the regular drain that the house is hooked up to

I have a valve off my main pump that i will use for pumping water in the drain. Grill is metal

Can you pump saltwater waste in to floor drain without issues? House was built in 2003 not sure if its metal or not. Anyone see this being a issue? The drain is close to my sump so it would make life easier

foam roller?

Cycling my new tank, my rock was dead (left out to dry) water has been in the tank for two weeks, one week with salt. I put some live rock in the sump tonight and the sand was once live that was rinsed well. Do you think there is enough dead stuff in the rock to start a cycle? Need a test kit. No lights installed yet

working it out on paper as we speak

I am also going to use 1/2 material maybe 1 inch wide in the inside corners and glue them for added support.

Thanks Guys. So 1 inch material (poplar)seems to be the way to go. I think I am going to make a box out 1x material and leave the back open with a couple 1 x 2 boards on the back for support. Then I am going to get some round edge trim (hopefully this can be found at lowes) and trim the top and bottom. I am going to use a hindge on the back to lift the entire canopy. Then I want to do my doors like Eric's. Should look decent if it comes out like i plan
