  1. I keep hearing that, and I do attempt to change mine, but don't as often as I should. But is a sock that isn't changed as often as it should worse in that respect than no sock at all? I seems like the "stuff" is going to break down somewhere else in the tank, if it isn't in the sock.
  2. Was reading the school lunch menu, saw "SW Chicken Wrap", and wondered what a saltwater chicken wrap was....
  3. That should be no problem.
  4. They are very light, they are as much air as solid material. The larger one was actually floating, due to trapped air. I believe they are "agrocrete", aragonite and portland cement.
  5. I saw these on "Mr. Saltwater TV" last week, and decided to try them in my tank: http://aqua-mags.com/ I bought one Rock-Mag and one Rock-Mag Jr, knowing that they would be a little big for my tank, but figuring I could "sculpt" them. I got them yesterday, and went ahead and put them in as-is. I will be making the large one a bit smaller, but I'm very happy with them. Now I need more frags Sorry for the quick & crappy pictures. -Darrell
  6. No warranty, it is as-is. But it has never crashed more that breaking a blade. R/C helis are not particularly easy to fly, they take a lot of hand-eye coordination.
  7. A big +1 Picked up some clean up crew additions, I can tell I'll be back (and back, and back). Great job, guys!
  8. Hi R-3, No, I would need cash. I wish I had the time to master it, hopefully it will find someone who does. -Darrell
  9. Hi Vin, Sure, I'll get something up tomorrow.
  10. No longer for sale --- my son is going to try to learn to fly it. I'm going to sell my Align Trex 450 electric helicopter- just don't have the time to play with it. It is an SE "v1.5" model (has most of the SE v2 updates, but before Align actually called it that). I have some extra parts, extra canopy. Includes all electronics, a couple of batteries, charger, etc - all you would need to get into the air. I'd like to get $300 for the setup. I could probably get a lot more parting it out, but I'd rather just move it all at once. If you are interested, I can post some pictures and more details on all what is included. Just wanted to see if there was any interest. More complete list of what is included: Trex 450 helicopter 4 LiPo batteries Charger and 12v power supply various extra parts Spektrum DX7 radio
  11. That's my second-favorite public aquarium (after the Monterey Bay Aquarium). Thanks for sharing!
  12. Thanks, everyone. Looks like I should find a new home for him first.
  13. I've noticed a couple of aipista popping up in my tank (after nearly two years, and not having added anything in 6 months). I'd like to try a peppermint shrimp, but will my banded coral shrimp cause any problems? Who might have peppermint shrimp?
  14. We Tivoed it on the "catch up" marathon, have watched the first two episodes. So far so good!
  15. We deep fried for several years, and were happy with the results, but I think much of how good it was is due to injecting the marinade. We do our turkeys on our Trager now, but still do the injection thing, and they are just as good.
  16. If your return is "over the side" of the tank, yes. Mine is drilled through the side.
  17. I have one of the flapper types, have had it for two years. It hasn't given me any trouble, but I do have sump capacity to handle it if it does fail. It is just nice not to lose several inches in the display when I turn of the return pump for cleaning, feeding, water changes, etc.
  18. I decided to try a few pix with my iPhone, using the new HDR setting.
