Sounds like fun.  +1 for Paul

I have an excessive load of aptasia that I would love to donate.  But the buggers are lodged in all the cracks and crannies of large rocks, most of which are an integral part of my seascape.  How in the world can you utilize these?  I do have 5 or 6 that embedded in the sand.  Will that help?

I also have some, living in SW Portland.

Looking for a gently used CO2 cylinder,  five or ten gallon.  Anyone unloading gear?

I am a supporting member

I'm on it.

What the heck?  Thank goodness that COR alarm alerted me.  The pump will not stay on.   The main screen shows a red "VOLT" error message.  I do not know what I could have done to cause this nor do I know how to fix it.

Many thanks

With each power outage, I have to reset my Classic via the Display. PITA. Is there a simple UPS that is fast enough to protect the Apex?  Would 600 VA be big enough to keep pump, power heads, skimmer, etc (excluding lights) going for 30 minutes?

For me, the two choices for an auto feeder are The Plank or Apex AFS.  Any opinions out there?

It is time again to check my lighting.  Please put me in for a meter.  Thanks.

I have an extra EB8 never used if it helps.

Climate Control from Tualatin has treated me well, and fairly.

I have a  COR 15, only tested it out, never used it.

I'm  back.  Get me back in line.

Skip me this time since I am out of town.

Please add me for either one.

I have a new light coming in and want to check it out.  

Please put me in line for either meter.

The example show above might be just what I need.    Yes, I have a caliper and will follow through with Digikey.  I had purchased such a cord almost two years ago, but cannot remember how I found it on line.  (Digikey rings a bell.)

I am suspicious of zero phosphate readings.  I have had very low readings even with almost no algae in tank.

I want to order a short, three foot extension for my carbon doser but I do not know the proper terminology.  Is this a plug, jack, or what, and where can I find it?

Having some extra controlled outlets might be handy. Offer coming via PMs

Yes, well sort of.  I have a full bucket of StoneFix.

Very helpful feedback.  Going forward with larger fish, I will not panic with a power failure, but also not drag my feet to start up my generator.  As for a heater, I can also just feed more fuel into my fireplace which keeps the den nice and warm.

There is tons of discussions on the critical need for battery back up so that when the power goes out, circulation can be maintained to keep the water oxygenated.  Last night, I goofed and left the return pump and power heads off for 12 hours straight.  To my surprise, the ten small to medium fish in my 120 gallon did not appear to be phased at all.  Why did they not all die?
