125 - Took Forever But Here It is!

Forgot this little doohickey.

At least it will go away. Until you get wrasses that spit sand, sand bombs, and sand storms.

Ordered a power strip/surge protector today.

Bro, I got this for my 135.


I have it installed already and I love it. Each of the 4 rings has it's own power button so I can turn off one or 2 to kill flow for cleaning or whatever and still have the lights on. Also, the spacing between the outlets is large enough to accommodate the large power inverters that some of the equipment has.

The bottom ring, has 4 USB ports and 2 standard plugs. The top 3 rings each have 4 standard plugs.

I have the lights all on the same ring, the top one, so I know I can turn the others off and still have lights to see with!!

EDIT: I have the 2 heaters plugged into the lowest ring. Same as the lights, I know I can leave that one on and the heaters will run, no matter what else I am doing with the tank.

Call it a "poor mans" controller... haha

It works well for my needs.

Looks like you got the same sale on Amazon I did.. Amazing how closely our builds have run.

I just started getting notifications for them too. I have very little clue whose I'm reading at any given time.

Yuh, working on my tank atm. I got threw a few pages, had to roast coffee, rearrange coral. Thinking about tearing apart the right side of the tank and re-scaping that area.

I think I asked you, how much do you roast at a time? A day's worth? A week? I used to roast about an 1/8 cup a couple times a week. It'd last me two days or so.

12 ounces per week. Lasts about 5 days. You aren't big on drinking coffee?

Oh I drink a ton. I was only drinking coffee at home on Saturday... Sometimes a cup in the evening. I wasn't big on standing in the heat over my popcorn popper.

I drink at least 16 ounces of coffee a day, often quite a bit more.

Ok... Now comes the big question: do I do a mated pair of Tomato Clowns or do I do 2 regular Percula Clowns for almost the same price...

From someone with 2 20 or so year old tomatos. Go perc lol.

Tomato clown = piranha of clown. They have slightly larger teeth than most clowns once full grown and will take plugs out of you. I have what looks like cigarette burn scars all over my forearms from mine.

That's the thing, I'm got reactions turned off, and watching a lot of threads. We get bumped off a lot though. Somehow...
