Heh... It would have been 15 minutes if we didn't live in Orange. There are some really nice pieces in there. I was pretty stoked when I saw them. My wife and I spent the whole day doing a tank transfer into a temporary spot in prep for a new build. That rock we picked up from you made a...

Hey Michael, thanks a lot for the hookup on this. My wife and I really appreciate it. We are setting up a new system this weekend and had rubbermaids with water all set up for it. There are some nice pieces in there. Derick, It looks like we beat you there. We went ahead and took what we...

oh Cool. My wife and I are setting up a 40 breeder this weekend. We're on our way now :)

as above. The nutrient levels are most likely too high in your tank. The easiest way to deal with that is to introduce less nutrients (feed less) and to remove as much wasted nutrients as possible. Take that turkey baster or a powerhead and blast the rocks before your water change. Stir up...

cool... thanks. I was there yesterday. If only I had known :)

Are there any glass shops or LFS that drill glass in Orange County and do good work?

for me, it's only showed up in the past few days, and only when trying to first navigate to the site's main page.

Hi. I'm looking to pick up a 40g breeder or comparable system with a 36" length, preferably drilled with an overflow. I need a tank, stand, sump, and good skimmer for a build project. If you have a system like this you are interested in moving, can you please PM me. Thanks.

my wife caught the addiction soon after we got married. I'd been into the hobby for years, but didn't have a tank set up when we got married. We set up a tank with stuff I had laying around and she fell in love. This Christmas, I bought her an 8g nano which she sits in front of constantly...

I think puppies and guppies in Tustin/Irvine has RO/DI for 0.25 a gallon as well... and I think Jeff's exotic fish in Orange sells RO/DI cheap too.

looks nice. How did you get the sump into the stand? I like the idea of using foam underneath the sump.

might be interested. What are the dimensions on the tank? 40g, 40g long, or 40g breeder. Also, could you give the size of the sump pls? Thanks Forgot to add, is there a beam down the front of the stand, or can a large sump fit inside?

I saw a set on thereeftank. The guy's in Corona, asking $325 for a 36" 6 bulb new in box. not exactly cheap, but better than retail. Sunlight Supply also makes the sun blazes. They have a 2' and a 4', but no 3' if i recall. Same reflectors, same ballast, and a good deal cheaper. I saw them...

I've seen it, but it's never happened to me before.

IMO, Tek lights have the most bang for the buck in T5's. They have great individual reflectors, and they are cheaper than most other fixtures with that feature. Plus, on a Tech tank it would look very clean open top with the tank brackets. I use Tek's myself, and I've even been thinking about...
