If the buyer flakes out I will give you $50 for it.

Thanks. That sounds like it might be the problem. I am suspicious of the heat we had last week. My main house has no AC and we had an espresso machine self destruct. Looks like my toys are going to cost me some money this month.

Today my power went out for just a moment but afterwards my APEX stopped providing power through its outlets. I was able to update the software via the app and it is giving me correct PH and Temp readings – it just won't power anything. The indicator lights indicate that the sockets are on but nothing... Has anyone run across this? Any tips? Thanks, Fred

Hi I have a Teco SeaChill TR 10 Aquarium Chiller. It is old but it has never had salt water through it. It was just setup once to test the PVC fittings that are attached. $100.

I would like my 2 supporting tickets to go for the MP10 My 11 purchased tickets to go for the Koralia Thanks!

I am trying to Google the specs. Which model is it or just let me know the dimensions. Thanks.

With a potential fish room like 🤩 it is your duty to setup a tank.

I have a sportsman GEN4000DF. https://www.campingworld.com/sportsman-propane-4000-watt-generator-116228.html I bought it because it can run from propane. Storing gas long term is not easy. Having a couple large propane tanks around is easy. Also if the power goes out sometimes the gas station pumps won't work. I also live in the hills and getting to the gas station in an ice storm is not happening. The funny thing is that the description of this generator says it is about as loud as a "regular conversation". This is very far from true. It is so loud that I would never run it at night. So in the day I used a couple heaters to get the tanks heat back up and recharge on of these: https://www.amazon.com/Webetop-155Wh-42000mAh-Portable-Generator/dp/B073J61T3Y That battery had enough juice to run a super small pump just to break the surface of the water in my 140 gallon. By the time the battery drains I turn the generator on and repeat. I did not have enough power to run the return pump. My power was down for three days and I lost nothing but my tank is lightly stocked with fish. The temp got down to 66 degrees. My take away from the experience is that you don't realize how un-prepared you are until the lights go out. I plan on getting more battery banks so I can use the return pump. I also am going to build a housing for the generator to cut down on the noise. And don't forget lighting for the house – candles don't cut it and fire can be unpredictable. Someday a Vortec with an automatic backup would be nice but they are expensive. Of course an automatic natural gas generator would be perfect but I failed to make the life decisions required to be able to afford such a purchase.

I'll take #1 if available

Power went out in the Portland West Hills near Gabriel Park last night at 8. I have a 140 gallon that is super lightly stocked with fish but a ton of coral. I used a small battery bank to run a small power head. The temp got down to 70. Today I fired up a generator until 7pm and got the temp up to 77. The generator is to loud to run at night so I am back to the power bank and single pump. If not for the PBR I would be really stressed. Any idea how low I can let the temp go?

The Pano Photo feature on the iPhone works great for long tanks.

Oops. Too slow. Cool sale though.

Aiptasia is human abuse. I had those in my first tank. Me and my wife thought it was a groovy hitchhiker. It was a hitchhiker alright but unfortunately the knife wielding variety. I have bubble algae in my current tank. It is not as bad as aiptasia but it has the same capacity for nightmares.

I have this conch that is not lacking in flare. Should I remove the zoanthids or let a few more grow?
