One inquiry, but still no addresses to ship to or meetup locations in case anyone wants a piece of my filter.

@max_nano @Kim Pattison @BleepBloopMunchMunch That’s me. I have a roll of Rosco Cinegel Sun 85. A friend ordered about 20 different orange filters and found that one was the most accurate. Of course that was for the phone and camera we had at the time. No longer perfectly accurate with my...

I should add to my 5-6 people comment that only 4 are probably on the actual tank. People 5 and 6 are there to do things like get the furniture dolly out of the way so nobody trips on it, put a hand on someone’s back if they start to lean farther than they meant to, move the cord you forgot...

1. CAD isn't that hard. Good CAD is an art form, but frankly one that you don't need to learn to do this, so don't stress over it. 2. Figure out what material you want to print with, and find a printer that's compatible with that material. While they have their issues, for occasional use an...

Here is how I did it. Glass in light blue. Tape in dark blue, silicone tip in gray. I did it with a cheap hand powered caulk gun, although it was a bit slow going and it was some effort to keep the caulk going in the gap. Wipe up excess on the outside after, then fillet the inside and peel...

If you really want to practice panel replacement you can have the cube I ground the corner off of.

Personally I’d pretend it never happened, but I cut the tags off of mattresses too.

Lots of ways to skin this cat, but several able bodied adults is probably the most common. You’re looking at something in the range of 350 pounds and made of glass. While I’ve done worse in a pinch, I don’t advise doing it with just 2 of you don’t need to. Doing this with 4 isn’t too...

What size tank is this? Standard plastic trimmed Aqueon or something else? Picture?

I'm quoting myself, but this is important. Most things in life that include silicone fall into the "wing it and it'll be ok" category. This is not one of them. Can you lay a bead covering 3 sides AND get the glass placed in 2 minutes? Are you sure? Do you understand that you're going to...

I seem to attract this issue. In order of occurrence: 1. Needing to replace the 8' deep line due to a sudden leak right as you're about to sell the house to move across the country. Then finding out the main line from the street to the meter is an almost 100 year old lead pipe when you get the...

Mostly confirming what was already said, but I've done a few panel replacements. The largest being a 100" x 24" piece on the back of my large tank's overflow. Depending on the size of the chip you might just leave it, but if it's large enough to be concerning then yes, replace it. If it has a...

Nems usually win, although in the case of RBTA vs. xenia the xenia just didn't care, almost as if the nem wasn't there. GSP wins over monti cap. Green slimer wins over zoas, although it lets them get close before making a slimy mess and pushing the back. Galaxea wins over euphyllia. Hairy...

I've never personally seen one on something else, but I have read at least one person online saying the babies liked to hang out on (but not eat) nearby acro frags, and suspected acro frags as the path of introduction to their system. The odds are certainly much lower that they would move on...

Levenson. He's basically DFWMAS's version of Mike (Coral Reefer), with a bit of nutty professor mixed in to keep things interesting. He kept trying to be less active and we (when I was active in that club) would always find a way to keep him coming back.

1. Tank size is limited by available space, the length of your arm, the number of ridiculous looks you can handle from a non-reef keeping spouse (if applicable), and your wallet. 2. There is never enough space. This sounds silly, but it's really not much harder to run out of space in a 10+ foot...

It sounds like you're just going to sanitize this frag tank once this is over (good decision), but I would want to go at least a few months with no montipora. From the perspective of the (yet to be set up) QT tank, at a minimum I'd want a couple months with no signs of montipora on those frags...

I should add, there are stories of people online successfully eradicating them, but also others who went without for a few months and then still had issues when re-introducing montipora. In my case they never touched my digis or encrusting ones, just the caps, although I removed all the caps...

1. Yep, that definitely looks like a MENB, and a big one at that. I’m used to them being smaller, but they look just like that. 2. Not the munched trails I’m used to, but that definitely looks munched on, and seeing as there is a known munched right above it I think we have a culprit. 3. Is...

This matches my experiences.
