  1. Does it load to windows? If so do this: From your Start Menu, choose Run, then type REGEDIT in the box and click OK. For Windows 95, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion and look for an entry in the right pane called "ProductId" Otherwise i have about 8 or 10 different disks with product keys i can give you. I'll have to find them though, they are packed since i just moved.
  2. Good deal. Good prices too! I'll be picking those up next time i'm up your way. Thanks.
  3. What brand is it? Rejection rate? I'm going to be in the market for a new one soon. Travis do you carry replacement DI canisters also? I'm looking for an upright one.

    tank stand

    Looks good!! We should all get together and make our own rock this summer!! I'm going to need some when i begin setting up the 55 in a few months.
  5. Yah but console gaming is getting expensive as well. Xbox live has a monthly fee and the consoles are getting more and more expensive. I upgraded my computer to an AMD 2700, overclocked it, dropped in an ASUS N6600GT video card, overclocked with a new motherboard and now i've got a pretty smokin rig for about $230. Those consoles are up to what, $500 for the premium models. Pretty soon i bet there is going to be a merging of PCs and gaming consoles.
  6. Need for speed underground on Xbox 360 kicks arse!!!! I'm close to buying the xbox just for that game........must......hold......out........ps3 will be so badass!!!
  7. LOL that is ironic. I'm sending the pump off tomorrow. Hoping for the best.
  8. Well i would sure like to see they persons bracket that had these 4 teams in the final 4. I bet if they played it again from the start there would be 4 different teams in it!!! Just crazy.
  9. I use aquarium pharmaceuticals.
  10. Looks like a green birdsnest to me too. The polyps are certainly bleached out.
  11. Probably a 7-10 days you should see something.
  12. After thinking about it, i might just pick up a 300-400gph Rio from you tonight and replumb my return as just 1 return and let the Seio do the flow in the display. This will lower the flow thru my sump and lessen the noise too.
  13. Yah i'm a little iffy on the Rios. I had one of my Seios crap out after about 6 months but they did repair for me for just the cost of shipping one way. My other Rio is on my skimmer, its a needlewheel and it works good, i have to take it apart to get it to restart each time so thats a pain.
  14. Good to know, thanks Sean. I had thought that the GenX pumps got decent reviews. Oh well live and learn. Which pumps are you selling now, say around 500-700gph? Thanks Travis, i have contacted premium aquatics and advised that they need to replace the pump and deal with PCI. We will see what the outcome is. I have heard from ppl here in the club that PCI always made good on their repair/warranty coverages. I think it was for their chillers. Is this not the case anymore, or is it just on their chillers and higher priced items?
  15. I'd move it lower and see how it does.
  16. Only Aqua Serene sells GenX here in Eugene and at almost double the prices at most LFS. I live 2+ hours from you so i'd be in almost the same boat. I'd have to take an entire day off work to get a new pump, so shipping is just as easy for me.
  17. Am I wasting my time? Sounds to me like if i ship to them he is going to put a used impeller in it and send it back to me.
  18. So i emailed him back: > This pump is still under warranty and it does not > work. I would like a replacement, not a used impeller. > > > Miles This was his reply: Miles, Please send the pump back to our return dept. RMA # 1050 send it to our physical address via UPS or Fed Ex. We will inspect it for warranty coverage and asses it's damage. PS. The warranty on the pump covers all parts from manufacturer defects.

  19. Hey guys i bought a GenX 2400 pump in December from Premium Aquatics. About 10 days ago it quite working, nearly killing all my livestock. Luckily i found the tank sitting still with a temp of 67.7 and everything looking.....a little stressed but ok. I quickly replaced the GenX with a Mag9 I have laying around and got everything working again. Luckily no losses. I cleaned the pump, soaked it in vinegar.....no go. It just won't start back up. I've cleaned it twice since I bought it so the pump has not been running for more than 30 or so days between cleanings. So I emailed Premium Aquatics about a replacement, they told me to contact Pacific Imports. It took me 2 emails and 5 days to get a reply. This is the reply: Miles, The Impeller isn't covered under warranty due to manufacturer defects if ran dry, or mis installed. If the wet end and impeller is cleaned regularly they won't build up too much calcium or algae to cause excess ware and tare. However I do have a used impeller and could send it to you for the cost of freight only? . Tim Zettlemoyer Pacific Coast Imports Inc,
  20. Digis grow like weeds!! They typically encrust in a week or less in my tank. Gotta love the digis!! Looks like its gotten some nice color to it too. Good pics.

    DIY pendant hanger

    Well its pretty simple, but its fully DIY and allows you to hang a pendant or light without putting holes in the ceiling or wall. I used 1.5" ABS, 2 45 els and 2 90 els plus some plastic plumbers strap to secure it to the stand. Here is a pic of how i've strapped it to the stand. The pipe is strapped to the vertical sides of my stand. I hang the pendant about 12" from the water surface, so i had to get the hanger high enough for that, but also so i can move it out of the way if need be AND i had to center it over the tank. That is where the 45s came in. Finished product. Works very well IMO and doesn't look horrid. Now if i could only redo my return plumbing...... Miles
