  1. I am looking at Laptop batteries & was wondering what's the difference between an OEM battery & one from say Laptop battery depot? other than $55.00? the knockoff brand says it has better power & it has a 2 year warranty vs 1 year _____________ Mike
  2. I have a 36" Nova Extreme SLR T5 on my 45 gal tank. The cooling fans are really noisy. I need to find some replacements(40mm x 28mm) but what's a decent balance between CFM & dBA? _________________________________ Mike
  3. Kim. As someone who only gets Christmas & New Years Day off, I feel for you having to work today. On the other hand there's nothing wrong with missing out on in laws either;) I had 18 of them at our house for dinner last night:D
  4. I did this a couple weeks ago. I came home after working 14 hours was butt dragging tired but knew I had to fill my RO/DI water barrel to mix some saltwater. Well I hooked up the line to the faucet,started the water flowing into the barrel. It was then I noticed a water puddle on the shop floor (glad I have out in the shop instead of in the house) I right away thought I had a line leaking.Nope. Thought #2. The barrel's leaking! Nope.All the while I'm squeegeeing the water out from under the barrel stand thinking "WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM(scratch) It was at that point that I noticed the waste water line coiled up & still hanging on the wall next to the barrel just waste watering awayDOH! That's all I'm going to admit to.
  5. I agree,besides, In & Out sponsors racing & the owner is HOT:D
  6. I like comment #3 on that page that Frank has the link to(laugh)(laugh)
  7. I just got 15lbs of dry rock from www.reefcleaners.org, seems like nice rock. John(owner) says you can just rinse it & add it to your tank without causing a cycle. (I'm going to cure it in my Q/T tank anyway) It's normally $2.00 per lb but he's running a special(limited quantity) $1.50 per lb with free shipping if you order 50lbs, otherwise it's only $8.00 shipping. "Rock is at it lowest price ever, everyone gets the local price of $1.50 a pound on 50 pound boxes. ($75 for 50 pounds) Limited quantities available at this price. We will be shipping rock on each of the days above to try to get it to you before Christmas. Dry rock does a lot better under the tree than live, and there is nothing like a few rocks to stack to give you or a loved one "something to play with" during your holiday."

  9. I put a small chunk of saran wrap (doubled up) over the top of the vial then put the cap on & it seals it.

  14. My daughter is looking to get a new digital camera. She does not want one with interchangeable lenses she's looking in the $300.00 ish range. She wants as she puts it "one that won't take a month to learn how to use" I know a lot of you have some real nice cameras so any suggestions? Mike
  15. PM me to set up an appt.(threaten)(plotting)
  16. Who else gets the honor of working Thanksgiving? Being in the gasoline transportation business, we only get Christmas & New Years off. That's the good side/bad side of it. When everybody gets to play we get to work. However in this economy griping about too much work is a good problem to have.
  17. These are the times I hate being a truck driver with 11,500 gallons of gasoline.
  18. Ya know Kim that's funny. When we redid the downstairs we were looking for a wallpaper border to go around the middle of the wall (to break up 2 colors) I found one with a billiard theme since we have a pool table down there. My wife joked about what else a picture of dogs playing poker? Well not only is there dogs playing poker but there is also dogs playing pool:p Attempting to do saltwater theme upstairs might be pushing it.
  19. Here's link to Monterey Bay Aquarium's web site. They have some neat wallpaper for free downloads. http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/newsletter/wallpaper.aspx
  20. I have a large Cork Screw Anemone that has been in the same spot for 2 years. The other day it decided to go on a walkabout. It's perched itself over the top of my Feather Duster. I want to move the Feather Duster but it's attached to the rock(see pic) I could not get a good picture of it but it goes about 2" further that you can see. I'm afraid if I try to pry it off the rock it will break the tube. Any ideas on how to get it off? It would be a major rock deconstruction to take the rock out & do it that way.
