I tried to get another picture but it was gone before I could get one. I'm sure another one will pop up sometime. Anyone else have a guess?

ID Please

I just noticed this on my front glass. It appears to be some sort of anemone. It has a fairly large foot with tentacles waving around. I don't think it's majano, aptasia, or a hydroid. Does...

Mine deflates every night. It seems healthy enough during the day so I assume it's normal.

I can't fit a 24" wide tank where I'm putting it otherwise I would. I love the side view of a tank.

I'm definitely going with a 25" tall tank. My original plan was for a 48x24x25 120 gallon but it wouldn't fit well in my house. I didn't know there were so many 60" tanks out there. I'd like to...

Is a 60" Tank a Bad Idea?

I'm looking into getting a 60"x18"x25" tall tank from Glass Cages. It's the perfect size for my room but I'm afraid I will have a problem lighting it. It's not a very standard size so I'm guessing...

Ok, I think I'm on the same page now. We're basically talking about a swamp cooler. The higher the temperature and the drier the air, the better the cooler would work but the more humidity in the...

Temperature does matter. We are talking about convection; we’re moving air over a surface area. The equation for convective heat transfer is:

Q=-hA(Ta-Tb)

Q= the heat transferred (how much...

As long as I'm using the same hot air from the garage that warmed the water in the first place, I doubt I'll see much difference. I'll have to blow cool air from inside the house over the bale of...

Thanks Paul, that's a good idea for the lid on the sump. I have a large fan that should work great. I may be able to wire it into a thermostat to automate things a little. Temperature...

Thanks Serra,

I've seen Paul's in person but it's kind of hard to compare a 600+ gal system to a 120+ gal system. During long periods of heat or cold it will act pretty much the same but it will...

I noticed it too, but I can't complain. I just lurk and rarely post. It might just be the time of the year. People get pretty busy during the holidays.

Mine was delivered Saturday and it seems to work great. My RO water tested around 19 TDS and my tap water here in Edmond tested around 250. The numbers seemed reasonable to me.
