    Thru-hull fitting of overflow system leaking

    Chad that'd be awesome! I'm by Edison HS, is that doable? Will have the box dry and ready to put a new fitting on. Got home last night and started working on it, unscrewed it completely, and noticed the nut was kinda chewed up so I got another one at the store, but they didn't have a screw...

    Thru-hull fitting of overflow system leaking

    My project after work is to unscrew the fitting completely, check the gasket and overall condition. Dry and clean the glass, apply silicon to top and bottom of glass, and keep my fingers crossed. Did speak to about 5 maintenance dudes, all avoid such work. Will post some pics tonight. Thanks

    150 Gallon SPS Tank Upgrade from 100 Gallon

    Hey reefers, All my parts came in and I'm ready to swap out my 100 gallon for my 150. Only concern I'm facing is if my tank is going to cycle again big enough to kill my fish and corals when I move the sand, live rock and water from my old tank. I don't want to be dumb about the move, but I...
