Hey there Joe, sent you a PM. Will pick up later, cash and carry. See you later. Thanks

Jackson6745, Air intake on the pump such as a Sedra draws air in to mix with water directly on the pump with a hose extended up from the water. An inline air venturi is on the plumbing out of the water, made of PVC with the center concave on the inlet and outlet with an opening to attach an air...

I want to utilize a skimmer I built but it calls for a RIO 2500. I don't want to use a RIO but would rather use an equal pump with a needle wheel that has an air intake on the pump rather than use an air venturi.

When using a filter sock how much of it should be submerged in the water within the sump?

Was informed this Yuma is rare for it's color but I had to question the seller if it was fading in orange color. What's your opinion on the condition? TIA

Ok with that explained as to where the general forum feels the way that you’ve posted I’ll refrain from putting up any DIY posts or any projects that were conducted for people that have requested my assistance. I do not intend to mislead anyone in the wrong direction. I do understand how much is...

I haven't built any sumps for anyone with a low quality acrylic. Any acrylic of a good quality I'd order thru a buddy that I worked with and owns his own glass repair business. He orders and sell to me at his wholesale price. Unfortunately the time I needed the acrylic he was out of work from a...

Trying to battle why I get micro bubbles in my main display tank only when the lights are on. The bubbles are mostly attaching to my frags on a frag rack thats at the top of my tank. During the lights off cycle there are no accumulation of bubbles. I do have a refugium with macro algae, live...

I've read on another forum where a seasoned reefer uses Krylon paint is his tank with no ill affects, provided you allow the paint at least a week to fully cure. Allow plenty of water flow to pass the acrylic else it backs up in your main or paint a piece of eggcrate fitted in the corner...

That's a good question which I was going to ask something similar to regarding the chemicals. Reading the contents for the calcium bottle I notice it has strontium in it as well as magnesium and many other contents, which is more than I care to post on here at this moment. I'm using B-Ionic only...

His Word document is a disaster to try to understand. It took me 4 hrs to decipher what he was trying to do. I informed him to never employ in a position as a Technical Writer and stay with his roofing job. He had no success with his efforts so he ask for my assistance. I'm in process of adding...

I'm a big DIY'r, the first opportunity I can get to get my hands on Marine/Outdoor EPDM foam rubber weather stripping I'd be glad to test it out and see what kind of results I get. Nice part of it is you can use acrylic in a glass tank. Ok granted if when you add live sand to a refugium...

Oh I have a ton of pictures all step by step on how to do the mod it'll just take awhile to put all the pics together and document it. I was looking to see what the reaction of the mod before I do a DIY so I won't be wasting any time due to a lack of interest. Other forums I've done hrs of...

Here's a web site for EDPM baffles http://www.wetwebmedia.com/ca/volume_3/cav3i1/Baffles/baffles.htm

Here's a timer I modified and improved the performance. A buddy sent me a Word document on how to build it. If you use 2 timers alternately with 2 Maxi Jets and a Sure Flow mods you'll have a wavermaker every 30 seconds back and forth. I'm in process of altering the time to 15 seconds each, off...
