    AC3 web options?

    I was wondering how you guys hooked up your AC3s to the net without running a cable through the attic? So far I found two options, a Powerline Network or a wireless game adapter. What has worked best for you?

    Dien & Kris's RBTA Prop Station

    Well I've been thinking about doing this for a while but time and space was always in the way. When I saw a tank go up for sale I liked I then asked Kris if he would house it and we would do this together. Got the tank in October from a fellow member and slowly set it up and let it cycle. We...

    my hot pink Sherman

    Well a couple of months ago I thought my Sherman splitting, came home and didn't see the clone, thought I was just imagining things. Replaced my sump last week and saw a bubblegum like substance against the glass. Touched it and it moved! So there was the long lost RBTA. I just up and dumped...

    Ranco Temperature Controller

    I was wondering how accurate the temperature is on these things. Also does the whole probe part, like 1.5' need to be submerged? Is the cork-tape it comes with reef safe?

    days for hypo to kick in

    Well Ive started lowering the salinity in my QT tank on Saturday and it's been at 1.010 for 24 hours now. Was wondering how long it might take for the ich to start falling off. Also might it be a good idea to put the fish through a FW dip as two of them are really active and eat a lot.
