I thought you were talking about snowflake eel eggs. That would be even more amazing.

That calculator is decent but it does limit your calculations. It calculates a point load right in the middle where as a tank would be a distributed load, and it fixes the supports to the ends of the horizontal beam and only allows two points. You were hoping to calculate the difference with the...

You’re right, having the legs directly under the tank is best but depending on the size and profile of the aluminum there’s a high likelihood that you could still have the legs pushed out to the 60” that you want. The tank is 48”, so that’s only 6” on either side that is unsupported (if the tank...

Wow, I’m sure glad I left CA. Although, our governor (Polis) seems intent on taking CO in the same direction. Are the whole house natural gas generators allowed in CA?

What is the difference between our tanks and the water at the beach? I’ve never thought twice about going in the water with a healing cut; it’s not unusual for people to get cuts and scrapes IN the water without reactions like the ones that have been shared. Is there more bacteria or a certain...

These member swaps were some of the most fun a reefer could have. I hope you all enjoy your time tomorrow.

I tried this and it really didn’t have any effect. I don’t know if I didn’t put enough bottle in or what but it also messed with the ato since the bottles displaced the water. I tested out putting a fan blowing across the top of the tank and within minutes there was a noticeable difference.

If you DM gluemasters on r2r he gives 15% (at least I think it’s 15%).

I have mine set up for drinking water with a pressurized cylinder. It could be so that in my situation it doesn’t push the water back into the membrane. I don’t know for sure. Just a guess.

The cor 20 doesn’t use 1link; only the cor 15. This link may be useful to you. https://forum.neptunesystems.com/showthread.php?27874-COR-20-Power-Supply

Yeah, I saw the same thing. Still not finished :).

I think you could handle more fish. It just depends on what. Mandarins are pretty peaceful and don’t require a lot of room but the need copepods to eat. I’ve never had a goby or Pygmy cherub so I can’t speak from experience but I would think most gobies would be fine but the cherub I think...

When I saw the thread on r2r I thought about posting something here. I remember several years ago, there were quite a few people on here that used it based on a recommendation from another member. Has anyone had a purely positive reaction from its use? It seems like at best there was at least...

Nope, I’m not a fan either.

I can’t get away from people discussing it. I’ve seen multiple threads on each of the reefing forums I’m on.

I was doing some more research after my last post and it looks like when the laminated glass is supported on all sides, then it is slightly stronger than similarly sized monolithic pieces. I’ve always used them for stair guardrails where the anchor point is only on one side and maybe this is why...

Keep in mind that laminated glass is only as strong as it’s individual pieces. In this case it looks to be two pieces of 3/8” glass with a 1/16” interlayer. At least it uses a sentry interlayer which adds some rigidity oppose to the typical PVB interlayer. Laminated glass of this thickness will...

There seems to be mixed consensus on the effects of the bill. Some say it won’t effect how things are currently done and others say it will end our hobby. There is some ambiguity in the language that can be problematic.

@Vhuang168, that’s some nice sps growth. Since it’s in the lobby, who does the maintenance? How’s your office tank doing?

You checked to make sure the cable is seated completely on both ends right?
