  1. floating brown alge

    I actually did everything you said to do about a week ago. Minus the 100%water change. I did approx. 50%. The only thing that hasn't changed is the amount of light from the sun. I might have to do the big water change again. thanks
  2. TANK EXPLOSION

    Dear Mr. Ritzow, I would like to personally thank you and your staff for making my dream come true. Well, almost. First of all I have tried to contact you personally but you have not returned my calls. I imagine that's because you have somewhat been informed of me by Mr. Mulholland. Please allow...
  3. floating brown alge

    thanks podman, I realized after careful observation, that my problem is that since the wonderful chage of season, the placement of my aquarium is near the window where my oak tree has lost all of it's leaves. Beautiful and wonderful sunshine casts through straight to the tank. Thanks for trying...
  4. TANK EXPLOSION

    Hi everyone. Thanks for the kind words and all about this. The final result was that they paid about 4 grand of the final bill! That is after they told me that they wouldn'nt pay a dime. I'm not sure why they eventually did pay some but I did send a letter to the pres of AG. My insurance payed...
  5. floating brown alge

    I'm not sure if anyone has had this before but my 65gal has started to "bloom" brown floating alge. It's so thick that all of the water is brown and swirling with this stuff. The tank has been set up for one year now. I have general lighting, canister filter with ceramic tubes and a hang over...
  6. All Glass Aquariums/ Don't buy them!!!!

    In their letter to deny payment they said that it must have been a piece of lr that broke the bottom. I find that about impossible considering I had a 4in sand bed and a low reef mound.
  7. All Glass Aquariums/ Don't buy them!!!!

    You are very correct about the getting agreements in writing. That was my mistake! I trusted All Glass and they have left a bitter taste in my mouth through all of this. I know this may sound over the top but I haven't been able to even think about getting another aquarium. It just make me sick...
  8. All Glass Aquariums/ Don't buy them!!!!

    I would agree with what you said about most manufacturers but All Glass offered me to reinburse for all of my damages. They lied, plain and simple.
  9. All Glass Aquariums/ Don't buy them!!!!

    I just wanted everyone to know about a problem that has ruined me from reef keeping! I bought a 92 gal corner bow front aquarium from All Glass Aquariums back in feb of this year. Two months later, the bottom blew out and destroyed my complete set up and most of my living room, not to mention...
  10. TANK EXPLOSION

    Just to let you know it was a carpet floor. So far the damage is up to about $16,000. Not counting the live rock, sand, salt, test kits, ect. The money is still mounting. These statements about bow tanks is bothering me because I'm concidering getting another one. Has anyone else heard of the...
  11. TANK EXPLOSION

    let me just say that if the manufacturer does what they say they will do, I will most definately let everyone know who they are. I will get a replacement for what I had and try once more. Better results hopefully!
  12. TANK EXPLOSION

    I really shouldn't say at this point because of the pending problem. All I feel I should say at this point is that they have been very cooperative.
  13. Culligan

    hey just a quick note. I was using culligan water from walmart for water changes and top offs and had the worst hair alge ever! As soon as I stopped using it the alge went gone gone! Word to the wise!!
  14. TANK EXPLOSION

    Yea, it was the craziest thing. Everyting was going just perfect and BOOM! You won't believe it but the manufacturer's being great about the whole thing and is paying for replacement and repair of everything! My mind tells me that there has been this problem in the past, a lawsuit, or is afraid...
  15. TANK EXPLOSION

    Folks, you won't believe this, I still can't! I'm the one that was almost about to quit due to an alge bloom that was kicking my butt. Well, I took alot of advise and with some time, patience, and work, my alge was GONE! I had put in a large clean up crew and my alge, all of it, was gone in a...
