Aots, Oh yes I have!!! Marine bacterial infections. Many times. When working in my tank I might get poked or cut on live rock and other things in the tank. Also sharp things like plexi that has not been sanded. Sometimes it takes quite a while to heal them up. I use hydrogen peroxide and...

MandarinFish, That is a bummer. I have always had great service from them. They have helped me numerous times and even taken back some things I did not need for full credit. They might be going through some changes or something. Like when they moved. How knows., I hope you get this straightened...

Better there than you pants dude!~)jk There are many symbiotic crabs and they might be some of them. Watch and leave them alone unless they get out of hand and eat your brain! :oops: Joe :D

Hi, I bought a used marine technical concepts duel pro-doser for $125 and it works very good. I think it could be DIY'd if one were handy. The ESV used to be pretty flimsy, but it might be better now. HTH Joe

Rockin clam Nathan. Derasa are my favorites!~) Joe

Dude, that is a really small tank for a shark!!! :roll: Joe

I have mine out doors now for many years. It's under an over hang and behind a partial wall. I made sure that it is well ventilated. Works great and keeps the heat outside!~) HTH Joe :wink:

Dang, that was so good. Steve, you rock!~) I wish I could have tuned in. Thanks R.O Joe

Thanks Doug, I see that AHsupply has different end caps now. They are black with attached cords. I might give them an e-mail and see what gives. Maybe they would work with some help from silicon or liquid tape. I need new bulbs too. Bummer is I only got a few months use on the first set!~( oh...

TY, Thank you for looking around. That might be an option. Shane, I might be able to take some photos later. The real thing would be to get photos and exact measurements to a master fabricator here in our community that might help us. They are not that straight forward for DIY. I know there is...

Thanks TY! :D A home depot run is coming up soon. Joe

Hi, I am recondtioning my ATS 250 to be added to the 100 gal sea grass tank. The 250 has been on an 80 reg. that is considered the bone yard. Here is my question. The PC sockets that I had on it were not water proof at all. That is one reason why I turned off the lights over a year ago. It has...

It certainly looks good. We just need someone to take the plunge and buy one. What is the going price? I know that Caroline from MASLAC has an old one that she loves. It is huge, 8"dia and almost 6' tall. The original pump burned out and she replaced it with a quiet one. It would be neat to DIY...
