That’s exactly right - into a rubber maid garbage can and then pumped into the ATO. I could go straight to the tank but what I was trying to create is a semi-automatic water changing station where I could also pump mixed SW during water changes. I know there are plenty of better ways to do this...

Hey all, I am trying to automate filling up my ATO container. My RODI set up is approximately 75 feet from the tank. I purchased a few sump pumps with the goal of using quarter inch RODI tubing to move the water to my ATO. Unfortunately, the water moves incredibly slow and I suspect it’s because...

UPDATE: was able to visit the Concord store thus weekend and @Cbruno80 was kind enough to swap out the torch for another. He also nice enough to throw in an emerald crab. Really happy with Bruno’s service and will be back at his store. I’m still pretty disappointed in how the LA store handled...

Thanks, Bruno. Will send you a message

And now that the lights are on, I’m pretty sure this isn’t a HG. By way of comparison, the torch in the background is a Todd’s and considerable brighter.

I don't normally post stuff like this but I had a really disappointing experience with CKC that I felt the need to share. Apologies in advance for the length of this post, as I want to make sure I accurately reflect what happened. I'm hoping it's an isolated incident, but the lack of...

very nice piece.

Looking good! What toadstool is that in the middle?

I think I’m having a different issue than the one described in the link. When I plug my unit in, I hear the clicking sound and the fan comes on. The LEDs do not come on and I don’t get power to the outlets. Any other thoughts?

Thanks. Been watching the same videos. Let me see if I could build up the courage to do the repair lol

I believe my Neptune Apex EB832 has failed. The unit stopped working last week, and I suspect it's due to a power surge that happened while I was on vacation. Before I left, I had an Energy Bar 6 plugged into the EB832. I came back to find that the Energy Bar 6 had gotten wet and was fried...

Beautiful tank! I just set up the same tank and have a few questions for you: 1) are you having any issues with overflow noise? I can’t seem to silent the overflow, despite trying a few things. I have a caddy on one one side and a sock on the other - the noise is primarily coming from the caddy...

Would love a frag of this. Thanks

Would love a frag if this please.

If you don’t mind sharing publicly (or PMing me) I’m curious what price you were quoted. I’m getting a nearly identically sized system installed next week (only difference is that I am getting two batteries) and curious if prices have come down since I locked in a few months ago. Thanks.
