    Canon EF

    The 24-105 f4 L is a pretty good travel lens. Sharp over most of its focal length even at wide open. The f4 does limit it some in lower light situations. Tripod use becomes much more crittial. The EOS 1D is not a full frame camera. It has a 1.3X crop.

    Canon EF

    The 600 f4L is some serious glass. Share some pix you take with it! Had the 400 2.8 L for a while. Was a bear to use until I got a Wimberly Gimbal head.

    Canon EF

    I don't remember the 28-105 being an L lens. The 3.5-4.5 is USM but not L What body do you have?

    Question for collective mind - sand clumping

    Having Mg that high should have prevented that. Days when I'm here, ph is between 8.1 and 8.3. When I'm gone, its from 8.2 - 8.4. I'm going to start breaking those clumps up and get more sand movers.

    Question for collective mind - sand clumping

    I'm having issues with sand clumping. Alk is in the 9s, Ca in the 450s and Mg was as high as 1600 as some point but is now in the 1500s. Levels have been checked by other methods and all the values fall into range. So I'm kinda stumped. Most of the clumping is along the rock work. The areas...

    Neptune Apex DB8 went out with less than a years of use...anyone else experience this?

    Just a cautionary word. You are dealing with 120v electricity. If you not comfortable with that in general, please send it in. Myself, I do a lot of wiring in my own house so I have no qualms about doing it for myself. But I would never offer to do it for others. I would not want to be...

    Need help picking a new DT

    I'm a huge fan of Innovative Marine tanks. The EXT 170 is 60"/30"/22". Stand is aluminum so no issues in the long run, super easy to build and is very sturdy. Has 5 doors so access under the tank is super easy. There is no sump so you have the choice to pick what you want vs being stuck...

    Ap700 software update

    Never say never but I doubt Kessil will spend resources on discontinued products.

    Free starfire tank

    I'm sorry, are you upset about the fact that he took something given to him for FREE and trying to get some $$ for it? Or that it was a missed opportunity for you? I believe it was YOUR decision to give it away for free. And while I can appreciate the good will involved, once it is in his...

    Neptune Trident issues

    They are not fused together. There is a nipple on the cuvette and the hose slips over it. Pretty tight fight iirc. Where exactly is it leaking from? Picture would help. Start a support ticket if you haven't already.

    LF a Heater Controller

    It is set to 77 on the heater controller. But I did not calibrate either sensor (Apex or heater controller) to each other or to a calibrated thermometer. This is just to demonstrate how tight the control is without having to use an Apex to regulate it.

    LF a Heater Controller

    I highly recommend the Innovative Marine Helios heater. Below is the graph over 1 day. This is using the controller to turn the heater on and off. Not the Apex. It is also a PTC heater, not your regular filament heater and has a lot of safeguards.
