    I don't have time to mix salt with how crazy life is between family and work travel :(.

    Salt

    I have always had salinity mix up cloudy. No mater how fast or slow I add it. I mix it up in 900 gallon batches and it just never seems to clear up even if I leave it for a week. I think I am up for trying something different. Anyone know a place to get a good price on 24-36 buckets? Thanks.

    Salt

    Hey guys what are you using now a days for salt. I just finished up the 1-1/2 pallet order I did a few years ago of aquavitro salinity. It's a decent salt but a pain to mix up. I used to buy from a guy out of south San Francisco but it looks like he is no longer around. Where can I find a deal...

    Griplock Systems order for light hanging

    Thanks for the info guys. I ended up just ordering http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150951144068&ssPageName=ADME:L:OC:US:1120 as they were stainless steel based off of JAR's comment about rusting. Not as nice and simple as the push to adjust but I could not find anything like...

    Griplock Systems order for light hanging

    Anyone want to go in with me on an order from Griplock Systems? They make the adjustable aircraft cable hooks. I am looking at picking up these for my new LED build for my 600g tank. They have a $100 minimum order and the ones I want are only $4.18 each and I only need 16 of them. Let me...

    Anybody Use Profilux Controllers ?

    I use Profilux stand alone dosers and while its not the same as their controllers they have been rock solid and their support has been great. So +1 on them as a company. Thanks

    Hotel in Grand Canyon

    We went in October and stayed at the Drury Inn in Flagstaff. It was real reasonable in price and they have a nice hot breakfast in the morning. Great for kids. We stayed two nights there. One day we did Sedona which is about an hour from Flagstaff and the next day we did the South Rim of the...

    Need a Heater

    While that is another option I highly prefer the simplicity and reliability of an industrial grade thermostat like the ranco vs a more complex multi purpose device like a reef keeper.

    Need a Heater

    If possible I would spend a little more and buy a single stage ranco controller. Etcsupply.com is about as cheap as they come. Then pickup two 150 watt heaters This way you will have some redundancy incase a heater fails and will have a rock solid thermostat to make sure you do not cook the...

    Snow pictures

    Anyone thinking of heading out the next few days if we get some snow to get some pictures around the bay area. Trying to think of a few locations that I could get some interesting pictures if we really do get some low level snow.

    Canopy power lift

    Check out Firgelli http://www.firgelliauto.com/ They have the widest and best priced selection around. I use a pair of their 400 lbs 30" stroke ones to life the shed roof on my 900g water change tank. The tank is off the side of my fish tank shed outdoors. I enclosed them from the elements...

    Best Heater?

    Thanks Northbay... I have seen way to many people cook their systems and just don't want to risk it. On my fish system the natural gas setup seems to be running from what I can calculate at about equal to a 15,000 watt electric heater. That = cooked triggers pretty quick even in a 1100g system.

    Best Heater?

    I may be the odd man out here but I do not trust any heater controllers, especially the built in ones or even the Apex or RK controllers. The built in heaters use such cheap components that its not worth the risk if you have a system of any size. For the Apex and RK controllers I just don't...

    People who have built a fish room...

    Mike, How many gallons is your system and how much are you spending a month on just heating it. I moved my large fish system over to natural gas last year and it cuts the heating bill by about 90%. Problem is you are going to need to spend $1000-$1500 to setup something. My ROI was only a few...
