Check out Fulhams site they have the wiring diagrams for the bulb type and quanity you choose http://horse.fulham.com/customer-service/wiring-diagrams/

I got it at Michaels in the knitting dept:p

We must have started about the same time, I might need to move the light back or see if they sell a smaller bulb

Thanks for hosting the meeting Jesse, your cube is awesome, cant believe how well the SPS are growing and the colors! Good luck with the seahorses

Dang I missed the boat on this, I want a Kole and another Yellow tang but wasn't quite ready.

Now that's really cool, you guys should have a category for the most creative!

I'll give you 75.00 for it (whistle)

They are great grills but more along the line of a convection oven/smoker oven. I have one but i'm more into the quick steak and small cut grilling so i use my old gas bbq. Tragers are great for roast, pulled pork, long slow cooking

Are you using baking soda right out of the box, I'd like to try this with my dosing only because i get less of the fine algae on my viewing panels when my Ph runs closer to 8-8.1 would like to get back to cleaning every 3-4 days instead 2-3

Happy fourth everyone, best holiday, ribs have been on since 3:30, kids are coming over for dinner later too bad the pool's not warm yet!

Last question, do you turn the air off with the light?

Will do when the time comes, I dont think you are there yet

I think you need a Calcium reactor, I just happen to have one you can buy!

Thanks Brad, good idea on the overflow! how long are you leaving the light on. beat me to it, how about the air, this is going to be a salt creep nightmare!

One question, how long do you leave the light on 24/7?

Thought I would give it a try, didn't really understand the bubble wand part so I made my own. Stole Brads idea and used the overflow. I did rough it up but doesn't look like it bought a 50w plant bulb

I did the crawl space once, alot of work. Since then I have cut a hole in the outside wall and set it like a portable air conditioner so it exhaust outside

I never thought about using the overflow! good idea, I dont think I'll build a "side hood" though, maybe just a bulb!

I might I was thinking about getting 5g buckets of the two part

will do..............

I need to order some things, I'm in

Welcome to the forum, post some pictures of your tank when you get the time

When I started with the Phos test I was a little frustrated also, I found a video showing how to use the test. Tap the packet down to one corner, cut two sides with scissors, pull apart and crease one side to pour, seems to work. I found a conversion chart for the reading, printed it and taped it inside the lid of the box also found I need to shake and spin the max amount of time (1.5 min) to get a accurate reading. Wait until you buy the Calcium test!

My PM reactor instructions say to use a siphon to feed the reactor so that's what I always did. My magic number was 6.4 to keep the Alk where I wanted it and a pretty good stream. I switched to the coarse media so never had the gunk in the bottom like I did with sand. I recently switched to the two part and so far I really like it, already had the Litermeter III so no big investment to try it out

I never liked using the solenoid to maintain the Ph because I could hear it clicking on and off for some reason that bugged the heck out of me. I always tuned the bubble count to maintain 6.5 or below.
