noticed today they have a comparable timer at walmart for $14.95 in the lighting section good for 1850 watts!

At home depot they have the "intermatic digital Timer" runs approximately $20 You can program 14 on and off events over 7 days. You can also set it to random. The good thing is that you can set them to turn on and off for as little as one minute at a time. Kalk reactors do not...

They work great if you use them to pump the fresh water into a kalk reactor. That way they do not get coated and have to be cleaned!

Secret Shopper?????!!!!!! :D :D :D

Secret Shopper!????????

As in I mean, I do not think mixing salts would have any effect whatsoever on the critters since obviously not everyone who stores and transports the animals uses the exact same salt. If using different salts were an issue don't you think the animal would immediately die when placed in a tank...

mixing salts does not make any sense. What kind of salt do the shippers keep their animals in? How about your LFS? Then you put them in your alien tank environment! I think the whole mixing salts stuff is a bunch of hooey!

I am really debating about starting a small zooanthid tank. I am thinking a small 20L tank, a thin layer of sand for substrate, and live rock, some homemade so I can get some towers. No sump, no overflow, no skimmer, OK maybe a skimmer(my BETA stage one) Since I have never had a zoo in my...

I must be beyond exhausted so I am going to bed. Anyhow lets break it down. 3.14 * (2^2) * 18=226.08 Cubic Inches 226.08 cubic inches = 0.9787127678571429 Liquid Gallons

YEP! your right!!! I took the diameter! Dang it all, someone shoot me!

pi times radius squared times height = volume thus 3.9 gallons

HOLY JESUS CHRYSLER!!!!!! WHERE did you get that yellow polyps monti!

well perhaps I will give it one more shot!

OK Pro I built the first one on the thread over on TRT sounded like a jet taking off. Plus the skimmer production was so variable. Did you build the first version or did you build the second version with the end of the barb recessed further into the eductor housing. Did you build it...

The following info should help everyone mag stir or powerhead stir. You use your reactor to replace evaoprated water. Thus you should know 1) The volume your nilsen holds 2) How much evaporated water you have to replace 3) How high the kalk cloud rises in your mixing cylce All...

Montana Road trip time!

Yeah, I know, I was going to surprise you with the dosing pump instead of the maxijet feed pump, but I could not contain myself once I started putting up pictures! Anyhow, I am going to go pass out: Been a rough week for me! Grandmother fell and broke leg, 8 month old nephew in ICU...

One last safety tip, do not submerse the output of the reactor. God forbid someone trips or cat, dog, or alien pulls a hose out of the john guest fittings, it could back siphon, So leave the hose a inch or so above the water level and let it drip into a high flow area of your tank...

Mixing the reactor. I use the intermatic digital timers you get at home depot. I set them to mix 2 minutes for every gallon of evaporation you dose per day. For example: if you replace 10 gallons of evaporation you would mix two minutes at a time 10 times per day. Since you using only 4...
