    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    I have, but another thing that I really liked about the egg crate was the flow through the sump, and the water level in the entire sump and less water fall noise, actually none at all. In addition, I'll only need two of the EC baffles, taking up less space, compared to using several acrylic...

    Felicia's 30 Gallon Seahorse Tank - Seahorses have arrived!!!

    Did you check your numbers coming out of the RODI machine? When's the last time you replaced the "insides?" LoL, other than that, I'm not sure why you're having such an issue = / I came across that article myself after reading up on the beta glucan after Jim suggested it :) it's just been so...

    Felicia's 30 Gallon Seahorse Tank - Seahorses have arrived!!!

    Looking good!! Can't wait until the cycle's all over! LoL, I love love love love love the jawfish! All Denzil ever hears now after I look at your posts are "I can't wait until I can order from KP aquatics" LoL. They are so cute!

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    Thank you! It's small progress, but progress nonetheless. I'm hoping to have everything all in order so all I have to do is get the plumbing, then start to add water. Adding water will be a process (as you know, haha) as I only have 40 gallons of RODI water every few days. It's ok though...

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    I wanted to leave a 4-5 inch gap in between the two platforms so I could put a hose in there once every 3-4 months and vacuum out the debris. The space won't sit empty however! I created a "rubble rock" box out of egg crate that will sit in the middle. This will make a nice pod refuge, and it...

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    Right side of the sump with the return pump and newly made egg crate baffle. With everything in place, I was able to measure the egg crate needed for both sump rock platforms.

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    Left side pic of the sump after cutting out the egg crate baffle. I also have the skimmer platform in place so I knew how much room I'd need for the skimmer. :)

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    Here is the sump after a friend helped us cut out the top for easier access. I was going to leave it as is, but I realized that it would be a hassle to do maintenance on with such a small area of access. We cut it out, and I got a file and smoothed it all down so it didn't cut up arms, hands or...

    Brandie's 210 Upgrade

    So in between life, applying for jobs, interviews and working interviews, I put some time in to the 210 yesterday evening. I finally got most of the work on the sump done, only thing left is to sand and level the cut pieces of pipe for the "trays" that the sump rock will fit on. :) I'll post up...

    Diver's Paradise: Felicia's Scuba-Inspired 30 Gallon

    Try Rod's food! LoL, that's exactly why I got it haha. ^.^ Lots of different foods, different shapes and sizes, and there's usually something in there that everyone will eat. It's even frozen in coral slurry so the corals will like it too ;)

    Solution to POST with Simple HTML formatting

    Actually if you use this < p > < b r / > < / p > it will put the /p in for you and < p > < b r / > < / p > will actually give you breaks in your paragraphs

    Felicia's 30 Gallon Seahorse Tank - Seahorses have arrived!!!

    LoL at least you got everything done last night and things have time to settle ;) Not only that, you can be done and over with everything all at once, haha. No additional stress to the fish by having to do a second acclimate the day after they are put in the tank. Little mercies in everything ^.^

    Of course! Not like Denzil and I don't go around to all the fish stores every couple of weeks anyway ;) haha. Be great to be able to help the club out at the same time. ^.^

    Size of CUC for a 210....

    What's "lots of sand?" I planned on having a 2 inch sand bed with some rubble. I know it's going to get moved around a bit, so it will be deeper in some areas and shallower than others.. was hoping that was enough in the 210 since it **seems** to be ok in the 90. Hope it'll be ok in the 210...

    Size of CUC for a 210....

    That's interesting, but great insight. Never thought about it that way, although knowing LFS's I guess I should have. Definitely gave me food for thought, thanks :)

    And if any one cares, here is the expression that allows you to have breaks in your paragraph: < p > < b r / > < / p > without the spaces of course. I did that just so they'd show up.
