Yes, they close up at night. In ideal conditions they do grow FAST. I joke that it grows as fast as my lawn. I keep trimming it and fragging it. I...
Jim, Thanks for posting the link. Yep I have my 300 and the 90 running into the same sump. Since the basement isn't finished I don't have a...
Acrylic It is the clairity that is the most important factor to me. My 210 is glass and everything looks dull vs. the 90 and 300. Plus over time...
It is probably OK. Mine is in a lot of current too and it's thriving.
Timing Is Everything!!! Last Sunday I left the country on business. I'm asleep in bed Monday night when my wife calls in a panic. We had a huge...
Check Ebay too. I bought 10 3" fans last spring for something like $30 with shipping. Oh, mine are on the same timer as my lights too.
Cheap? RODI works out to $.05ish a gallon. Bite the bullet.
Wow, those are some high readings for tap water. 8.1 ph and a bunch of other junk? +1 on RODI

If you do get a RODI unit, make sure you get one that has a back flush valve. It will greatly extend the life of your filter. I've clearly seen a...
Unfortunately, I went through something similar a while back in my office tank. It was a FOWLER at the time and I lost everything. :( I simply...
I keep my tanks at 1.025-1.026 1.022ish helps to keep the parasites down in FOWLER tanks.
If you have a sump, there are better options. If you need a hang on, it's not bad. I've used them for years on pre RR tanks with good output. If you...
Wow, a DIY needlewheel pump impeller? I'd be concerned about it self distructing, especially with a large pump. I'd still love to see the same...
And so the addiction begins... ;) You do have a second job lined up don't you?
