100% Agree. Different chains for different keepers. Categorization is a necessary improvement. Also, my ignorance with how it currently works must be stated. I have not dived deep enough into it because it is a bit overwhelming honestly. I'm a little more comfortable now, now as a new member, it...

THIS!!! I'm still learning how to even keep a reef tank happy. In time, I will proudly be able to share back into the DBTC. But for now, my recent acquisitions from the club could make it appear to others that I'm a freeloader. Far from what I would want to be seen as. We really cannot get into...

Thanks. I have this one bookmarked already. I was thinking maybe it was a journal or something. I even tried looking under popper.

I'm not finding it. Care to share a link please?

Oh... I'll have to go look for that. Appreciate the insight on that. I'm not too concerned about the drilling. I'm fairly confident I could handle that. I think I'm going to go that route anyway now. Dual pumps and returns. I do agree with you about the bulky overflow boxes. Not ideal. Saving...

It would be inside the house...on tile! So I'd sleep fine! Haaa haaa. I definitely get what your saying though. For some reason, I have a weird appreciation for silicone. It's holding and sealing power that is.

This sucks man. I'm sorry you're going through this.

LOL... it isn't THAT bad! Dramático... :p But yeah, I think I would prefer doing the external overflow. Just have too many other expenses that are far more important than spending a bunch on this tank.

Hey @BlueSallymandr ! Great journal and awesome upgrade. It was nice to meet you at the swap. Great wrasse choice! Those are so beautiful.

I was looking at the Synergy reef systems recently for another possible build. Slick looking! If I go down this road, how much flow should I realistically aim for? For the price of those overflows, I'm starting to think I like the idea of using the 3 existing holes for the bean animal. Then...

It's usable and in good shape. Also, glycerine is a good way to lubricate the seals in ball valves. It does require a fair amount of flushing. I'm not sure how well it would play with salt water afterwards. I may not even use it though. If I stick with the existing holes, I'll be cutting it...

I'm not following the logic here. Why wouldn't I want the larger drain as the primary? This was a thought. We were hoping to minimize as much cost as possible. Which is why I didn't even mention it. But if we go this route, I'm assuming an overflow that is setup for the bean animal? And who the...

Thanks for the back and forth fellas I did think about that, but I was honestly hoping to avoid any drilling. But I suppose it wouldn't be much effort or expense to drill a couple holes on each side for returns. I'm assuming this would be the best option then? So the holes are actually...

BAR, we need your expertise! @a.little.hypertonic was fortunate enough to pick up a tank from @Srt4eric that @popper gave to the club! Thanks again gents! Plan for this tank is she wants a zoa paradise with some splashes of macro algae. Not sure how that's going to work with clean up crews...

Should be able to find yourself some distilled water at your grocery store. You can measure it to ensure it is 0 TDS to set your worry aside. I am surprised that Aarowhead would discontinue a product with such an enormous profit margin. Maybe the place you get it at stopped carrying it. But you...

Hey @MichaelB thanks again for the chance to pickup the rocks. Big ole chunky rocks. Much appreciated.

Gorgeous piece!

It was great seeing you today @robert4025 ! Thanks again for the wisdom, help, and fresh o-ring for @a.little.hypertonic 's new tank. BAR is blessed to have you as a partner.
