    Okay update.... due to my skimmer running real wet all of a sudden I am making a few changes to avoid the next issue.
    1. I am hooking up my breakout box with a float switch in my discharge container.
    2. I am putting my 5 gallon bucket I use for waste inside a 20 gallon brute that has a leak detector in it in case the float switch fails.
    3. I am reprogramming the apex so if my salinity drops it shuts off the ato.

    I also keeping the wet vac in the basement so I don't have to go get it in front of my wife.... :)

    Lucky!

    I got caught the other night with a pile of rock/dust in the basement that I forgot to sweep up... Why did I forget to sweep up, cause I just swept it out of the way. Total guy move; I may have well just laid newspapers over top...

    Wow! Now that's high level hiding right there! Except, you didn't pay for it, you traded for it!! :cool:

    I have a couple things hidden. I don't even want to list them here... but they formed the rock band AC/__ and then a word that rhymes with sumps...
