  1. We need more votes! In case of a tie breaker I will put both tanks in a head to head battle!
  2. I haven’t thought what would happen in case of a tie breaker...
  3. Previous ban was wild and maricultured corals. The new ban is wild corals only
  4. Are you referring to my 1989 miata? That won’t power anything. Not even a 100w heater
  5. you don't try a nem...it tries you... lol
  6. Yes and it’s heavier! A lot heavier than my 2000w yamaha
  7. Just got this monster home. It’s heavy!!! is it weird that I am wishing for a week long power outage all of a sudden?
  8. Those are Pandoras and they’ll take over everything. I throw them in the trash cause it’s literally a pest...true story
  9. With the availability of maricultured import, do we really need wild corals?
  10. Saw local ads for $1000 transfer switch including installation, permit and inspection
  11. Now I wish my tank had crashed...I kid of course
  12. You can’t mix both alk and calcium to top off. It will precipitate. you can add kalk to top off and it will replace both alk and calcium. Kalk can be rough to ATO pumps though
  13. I would use kalk. That way you replace alk and calcium in a balanced way
  14. The chevron in clackamas has clear gas year round honestly though, I would just run regular gas in an emergency and then when it’s all done, take the carburetor apart and clean the pilot jets. Doesn’t take long
  15. I think the second best cost effective option is a generlink https://youtu.be/u3hZzNyxGe8
  16. Was feeding LRS to my tank as usual. I just throw big chunks of it. Walk to the freezer to put the rest back. Turn around and I see my yellow tang sideways at the bottom of the tank. He was fine 5 seconds ago. He’s not breathing well and not moving. I reach into the tank and when I grab it - a puff of LRS chunks squirts out of his mouth. He’s moving now but looks dazed and barely swimming. At least he’s upright...10 seconds later he’s back to normal so who else has had to perform fish Heimlich maneuver before?
  17. I have a Yamaha 2000 and used it last weekend. But I realized how painful it is to hook up heaters, pumps to two different tanks. And I still didn’t have any power in the rest of the house. It was getting cold too and the heaters had trouble keeping up so I just ordered a champion 7000 inverter generator from Home Depot. This should run the whole house. I just made a suicide cord for the dryer plug. Don’t judge me switch panels don’t run the whole house, only the circuits you decided to hook up to it
  18. I think the barren ugly tanks should get more likes lol
  19. I’ve used it. Never had to replace mag when I was using it
  20. Brian, how insensitive of you.... to not give credit the right person...Herbert Spencer
  21. So they eat the bubble algae and poop out red mushrooms. I need some of those ASAP!
  22. Hopefully the instructions don’t start with 1. take your shirt off and wash your arms all the way up to the armpits
  23. Doesn’t look like there is any room left for new corals lol
