I am in and planning to attend the frag swap. Sounds like fun! G

What is the controversy for these pumps?

I was running a varios pump before on one tank. It randonmly shut down three times over the years. Thankfully, I happened to be there when it did. I don't know why it shut down. I just unplugged it, plugged it back in, and it started working. But, it left me questioning what would happen if I...

Hello, I am looking for the quietest pumps I can find for my two tanks. Anyone have experience with the Sicce SDC pumps? If so how quiet would your rate them? My tanks are in the main part of the house so minimizing noise is important. For some reason the pump sounds bug me more now. They...

Yes, it was a good time. Really enjoyed the casual Q and A set up. Can't wait for the next one!

Welcome back!

I was thinking of picking up one of the pygmy wasp fish Kenny has at High Tide. Anyone have experience with these guys? Gerry

Or, you can come over and start working on my tank... That is awesome that your tank is doing that well. Don't jinx it. I think actively fragging the tank is a good idea. I have even heard of guys on various podcasts in your situation that will cut everything back to a nub and start all over...

I don't plan on having any predatory fish in there. The largest fish will be the two swallowtails and eventually 1 or 2 tangs. I am not to worried about the size of the fish. Planning to add the tangs last to minimize aggression with new fish additions. Forgot to add I have a Royal Gramma...

I am looking to add some bottom dwelling fish to my tank. I wanted to see what you might recommend or had experience with. I was thinking of some type of jawfish like the black cap jaw fish or pearly jawfish. The other options I was considering would be some sort of goby such as a four wheel...

Welcome!!!

We did Sunrun. At the time it was actually cheaper to buy the system than to lease it. We made sure to get a system that did 120% of our current usage to give us room to grow. Our mindset was that our current usage was very conservative to avoid big bills. Now, we use stuff freely and have yet...

Oops, my bad. Missed it. What about using internal circulation pumps instead of external pumps? Assuming any heat generated will help warm the water...every little bit counts. Thoughts... G

Something I have not seen mentioned here to help with electricity costs is an evaporation cover for all the open top tanks or mesh screen lids. Evaporation cools the tank down which means the heater kicks in more often. During the summer this can be a good thing when your tank gets too warm, but...

I went solar a couple of years ago. Saw the writing on the wall when it came to PGE. I did not really take the fish tank into account at the time, but it has worked out well. The powerwalls work great. It is spending money to save money, but in the long run it will be a huge money saver. And...

If I could get the recipe for that tritip marinade/sauce that would make it bigger and better for me. Haha. G
