    But the blue lights emanating from the front window of a neighbor are drawing me back in. I can almost smell the xenia and acros again... I'm promising myself that I will not go tank crazy again and will keep it down to one tank. And Q-tank... and maybe an additional isolation tank just in case...

    I have a Reef Octopus external skimmer that has run without any issues for about a year. Due to a heater mishap, my skimmer has overflowed twice in the middle of the night and overflowed and caused at least 5 gallons of water to empty into my stand and floor of my house. I am thinking about...

    Has anyone else every had a heater meltdown on them? I was woken up last night at 4am to nasty plastic burning smell and found that my Cobalt Aquatics submersible heater had melted (figured it out when I stuck my finger in my sump and got shocked)!! Heater was in my overflow so I couldn't see...

    I thought part of the point of the baffles in a sump was flow? Going over and under the baffles, getting agitated, etc. My baffles seem like they let the water go in, over, and then through. Looking at my sump after the inlet, you don't see any water movement. I know water is flowing...

    I know the basic things to do when the power goes out like pouring water into the tank, but not exactly how often I should be doing it. I put a blanket over the tank to try to keep heat in, i even pit a few hand warmers in a bag to try to help with the heat. I live in an apartment so a...
