Personally I like to keep my salinity at 1.026/35ppm as well.
You could always just buy a 4 outlet replay (the EB8 from Neptune Systems) for the Apex Jr. if you deicide you want more outlets later on.
Excellent idea. This should make navigation the site for specific topics much easier. :)
haha. I think so. I don't have a controller. But when I have my tank set up I plan to buy an Apex Jr. controller. I really like that you can control...
Some heaters over here are supposed to stop heating after they reach the desired temp, but aren't particularly precise. We don't have anything like...
I know what you mean with he "floating canopy". I saw you and Costie Reefer talking about that. I like the idea. What drawing program do you use? I...
The salt levels would for sure kill the moss, but I would be worried about bacteria/chemicals in the soil leaching into the water column in your...
Yes, you are correct. I get barely any skimmate right now (even wet skimming) because I only have 2 hermit crabs for livestock. lol. but I still need...

Can't wait to see what you decide on. Picture are a must when you are done too. :) If you have any other questions, just ask.

I would consider the polyurethane to be fairly important in completely water-proofing the wood grain. While stain...well, stains the wood, giving it...
It seems I missed this part. I should slow down when I read. ;) You are correct, that is basically what it does. but a stain only partially protects...
Oh, those looks cool. If you boiled them I am sure the moss is dead. But there might still be soil on them. To remove the moss/soil, you could try...
Wood stain, as well as polyurethane (hey that rhymed. lol), can be applied using a rag or a brush. Simply cover the wood completely, wait several...
Wood stains come in many different looks/colors. Staining wood changes the look of the wood as well as protect the finish of the wood (when used with...
Sorry, I hadn't mentioned that to you previously. What do the legs of your new hermit crab look like? Can we maybe get a picture of him?
