![]() OoO the other misadventure of the tank.
while looking at how to set up some temporary extra circuits for my tank until i move or the basement is finished realizing that 1 of the 2 circuits the tank is plugged into already is an Against code added in plug off the feed for the furnace. but really its ok to have near maximum rated draw going to your tanks and hope everything works out every time the furnace turns on. |

![]() something missing from my basement today...
and i like it the sound of this system roaring and gurgling away is all gone. curently picking little bits of life out of the sand before i get rid of it. everything has been crammed into my 50g and looks a lot better in there. I was going to tweak this thing out to be quiet while everything is in the other tank but i think i will just get rid of everything and save up for the next big thing. |

![]() Oh the decisions.. the old stand fits right behind the new tank.. and the 50g sump even has a hole predrilled near the top when i wanted to make it a refugieum to my old sump..
50g refugieum should have enough pods to keep a tank full forever eh? good thing i have to drain it to move it up there gives me an hour to think about it. |

![]() Just when i thought i was ready to go to bed...
barely touched the tank and got a full 120 zap... mmM fun.. grabbed my greeny potential tester, that can usually just pick out the hot wire in a 2 conductor wire and my whole tank lights it up.. oh well start unplugging things i guess |

![]() somehow the cord for a powerhead got a nic in it and that was underwater... ugh. at least now i can sleep.
the tank still has 24-28 volts induced voltage from everything else. one question for the electrically inclined. if you are running off multiple GFCI should your ground probe tie to all the gfci's? |

![]() ugh..
my sps frags are not taking the move well. I am guessing there is a mini cycle going on I'll test later this after noon.. lost 3 frags allready. a couple others are having some tissue loss but not as bad as the ones that are gone. the acro's that are not dead are browning out when they were showing color before. all the LPS look fine. did a 10 gallon water change so i could fill the barrel back up. almost ready to give up on SPS until i can have a tank dedicated to them. last week before i changed the tank over i added way to much magnesium because of old test kit i guess. was trying to change a little water a day to lower that. |

![]() 2 more frags down.. boo
4 acro's left all looking brown and no polyp extension all but one monti's left, looking mostly healthy 1 pocci still holding on with barely any PE MG 1800 cal 460 alk 9.5 dkh Po4 between 0 and .05 as usual nitrates... undetectable as usual. cheato is still healthy green in the new fugue but the caulpurla<sp> is looking worse for the wear. im beat i get up in a few hours not doing anything about it tonight. water change barrel is not quite up to spec tonight. hopefully tomorrow i can do a big change. all in all im pretty ****ed off at things right now all my sps frags were looking pretty good 2 weeks ago.. grrr. and my bio pellets are clumping on the MJ 1200. they never clumped when i had them on the old return pump Last edited by blacknife; 03-16-2011 at 06:03 AM. |
