Steve, Shimimg was the first option that I thought about, but I don't know how it's done. Do you shim it all the way for all the gaps or you just shim at every 3,4, or 5" apart? What is a hand plane? Is it used for shaving wood? Thanks, Phong

Entacmaea, You're correct that the tank's bottom is not flush with the stand top and the tank is glass. As for the picture, I don't have a digital camera so posting a picture is not an option. The 2x4 are used as the horizontal members of the long side of the the stand. There are four...

Hello to all reefers, I have a problem with the DIY stand for my new 180G tank. The problem is that the bottom front and the back sides of the tank are not completely flush with the stand. On the back, it has gap that is less 1/16". On the front side has gap that are between 1/16 - 1.5/16"...

Can someone with 180 AGA tank tell me what the exact measurements for it? I'm having someone build me a tank stand and I need to know the exact measurements. I was told the tank will be 72x24x24 but that I should add another 1/2 inch to the length and width when build the stand. Is this...

Thanks for the info everybody. I will give Hamilton a call and see what I can find out. Hopefully it won't be much work (like rewiring since I'm very nervous when doing anything with electrical stuffs). I'm planning to go with the 250W and I will be ordering the new bulbs when I figure out...

Any one????

Hello to all reefers, I currently have the dual 175W MH & 2-110W VHO system that I bought from Advanced Aquatics. I like to upgrade my MH lighting to either 250W or 400W. Is it possible that I can replace the MH ballast only? If it is, how difficult is it to replace the ballast? Is it...

Does anybody know if Dr MAC will attend this meeting with his "stuffs" or not?

I feed my with Formula I, Angel Formula, or chopped shrimp. Most of the time I feed it the chopped shrimp (bought from grocery store). I feed mine whenever I feed the fish. When I first bought it, I feed it once a day and two months later it's more than double it size, so I cut back to 2...
