  1. I have towed everything from boats to small utility trailers to large semi trailers. My advice is to borrow someones small trailer and get a hang for which way to turn to get the trailer to go the way you want. Try to remember that when you back a trailer it is the same thing as pushing it from the front yourself. The larger the trailer the easier it is to back because they simply move much slower. If you went from a 12' utility trailer to a 22' trailer you would find that it simply did not turn as fast and you just start your turn earlier. If you want to borrow a small utility trailer let me know and I would be happy to let you play with it until you felt secure. Good luck,..... we have a 38' motorhome and enjoy it. We tow a small Geo Tracker behind it and cannot feel it at all. Let me know if you want to back a small trailer around. The key is go slow at first simply pull forward and start over when it goes too far the wrong way.
  2. I am a retired high school band director. I still play music for fun about four to five nights a week. The groups I play with include two full symphony orchestras as well as two big bands. I have been a koi enthusiast for 25 years and into saltwater tanks more recently. If you need advice on who to take music lessons from give me a holler!
  3. I would be interested in talking to you about your sump. Please call or text 360-921-5421 Thanks
  4. Looking good Jeff. You were very articulate and showed your enthusiasm for the hobby!
  5. I would hate to add some bug that would attack the koi. All of my koi are much more expensive than a bag of salt. When I add salt to my water I put in two 60 pound bags so the salt alone from your water change would hardy be noticed. Just my opinion, but I would hate to take this risk for the reward! I also would not do this when the water temperature is 55 degrees or less. The fish need to be left alone for the winter months.
  6. Things are going well after losing some fish when I was off on a vacation last year. It really upset the balance of the tank and took a long time to settle again. I finally think I am pretty even with parameters. I tried a new product (which was mentioned on the forum) that I was totally impressed with called "Vibrant" which literally got rid of pretty much all of the algae that came about after my tank crash (there was a lot). It is great stuff and incredibly - really works. Look them up at www.uwcmn.com I am now a big fan of this product. I would think it might also work in your case??
