    Ai Nero 5 magnets

    in Equipment

    Posted

    I got a Nero 5 about a month ago or so now and it will literally not stay on my Red Sea reefer 350 with the magnet it came with not even while it’s not running. It says it’s rated for this glass thickness so pretty annoyed with it. For any smaller of glass thickness I’m sure it would be fine and I love the control-ability of it but just won’t work for me. I am thinking of getting a icecap gyre 2k that’s WiFi controllable and replacing it and running a 2k on one side and 3k on the other, anyone have any reviews on the WiFi models? I know it’s pretty new so probably not but worth a shot and if anyone needs a Nero 5 for a smaller tank i will most likely have one for sale this week. Thanks for reading my rant and for any info you have [emoji1305]
    Let me know how the wifi controllers work, I've been waiting to upgrade my 3k controllers. I love how they are backwards compatible, and that you can connect 2 gyres to one controller. So, I'm needing 3 wifi controllers. Don't even know if they are being sold separately, I should give them a shout... Bummer on your Nero.

    Tank in garage???

    in The ReefBox

    Does anyone have a tank in their garage and still use their garage as a garage?? Do you still do projects, park cars in, etc??
    please share your experiences good or bad 
    I have a detach garage but has been turned into a man cave and fish room, as you've seen before. Both rooms are walled off with separate entrances. Cars & toys are no longer parked inside.
    As for doing projects, such as woodworking (depending on size of project), it really sucks, as I don't have a lot of room. Last couple weeks, I had to build a stand for my new tank (tank built by@pdxmonkeyboy). It was no fun cutting wood with limited space. Saw dust was not a problem, I attached my shop vac hose to the saw and was all good!

    I'd say, wall-in the bay your tank(s) will be in to avoid any exhaust/fumes or saw dust, if you're gonna be doing any projects in the other bays. As handy as you are, it'll be easy-peasy, sleazy. Probably cheaper than a roll-up door, idk. Plus, it'll be warmer once you insulate the bay.

    (wish I had a 4-bay garage)

    Lighting...if the Reefi Duo Extremes are a bit out of range, at this time, maybe consider the Reefi Uno! It is a single puck instead of two. I don't know how much controllability you get, as@danlu_gt is still fine tuning the luminaire.
    Thought just came to mind... Not sure if I was to say anything regarding the 'Uno', just yet, before its release.

    December Meeting 2019

    Yeah - hope this doesn’t mess up I5. Funny, I went there a few times when living in Pasadena and thought it was just OK. Preferred Lucky Burger myself. 
    Just 'OK'? Are you kidding me? It's better than any burger from up here, that's for sure, lol. Lucky Burger is ok, but Lucky Boy on Arroyo Parkway, now that place is awesome for pastrami sandwiches! I like Tommy's and In 'n Out, 2 all time faves.

    Anybody want a 4x4 animal style?

    So we are just a couple days away from our December meeting - time to get yourself stoked up for all the great raffle prizes (ReeFi extreme light, Apex, LFS gift certificates, salinity probe, cell phone lens/filter kit, RO/DI setup to name a few) and (in)famous white elephant gift exchange!  Not to mention pizza, beverages and the company of your fellow reefers - all in their best holiday spirits of course!
    Hope you plan to join us for this always festive event (details in OP).  C'mon folks... you know you can't resist!!!
    I'll be there for sure but might be a few minutes late, been craving some 'In n Out'.... Finally!

    Just checking with the peeps that got in the group buy...
    Are they doing work? Mine definitely are, and it feels like a load lifted off my shoulders!

    Ohhh...they've also been doing some 'hanky panky' when the lights are off[emoji39][emoji39][emoji39]
