Sticky note:  Thanks to D I am on day 2 of no ciggys. Ecig all the way. 2 packs a day hanging out of my mouth while worked.....  look at allthe money I will save my wife said..... to buy more corals 

hey Lloyd that is awesome to hear. I have been vaping for almost 4 months... The first three days are the hardest... If you need some E-Juices let me know I sell that too lol. I have from 6 - 18mg of a variety of flavors. Saving a ton of money and getting healthier. I find that the actual urge to want to smoke never goes away but vaping makes it a lot easier especially with the E juices that have nicotine and you can always go down in nicotine to ween yourself off.

Thanks for the info.  I haven`t craved one since starting eCIG. I smoked 2 packs a day sometimes sitting in an excavator or dumptruck or whatever I was doing. Nobody at home smokes so I am sure that helps....    I actually find my smell and taste changing...  Coffee don`t taste the same  lol

Hey D  let me know when you can stop by and pick up this jap toadstool.  I have a feeling softies are not gonna work out in this tank....  too clean perhaps? It opened up for 1st couple days and then has since closed and looks stressed out ever since. I have a small piece of kenya as well that is shribbled up. Dont care somuch about that cause watermelon zoas are on same rock. Perhaps throw it in your frag tank for me till I get my frag setup.LET ME KNOW ASAP. 

Sure, whats the condition of it today?  Text me tomorrow

No it means you can actually taste lol. Your breath will be fresher, your teeth whiter, smell better too, and over all you will be healthier.  Keep up the good work... With both the tank and ecigy

So, if you read my other post, my WP 10s and duel controller showed up yesterday. Didn't take me long to rip open the box and get them wet.I was shocked to see how small these pumps were. Lol  got them hooked up and turns out that the cords coming from pumps do not meet with the length of my tank..... now do I hack them and add a wire in between each end or perhaps there is an extension cable available? Short by 3 ft on either end..........  these pumps are not overly strong for the length of my tank. But they do move the water and create a nice 1/2 inch wave along the top of the water. My closed loop makes up for the other flow.

Any suggestions guys on the cable issue?

 

[Poseidon]

Get a short extension cord and use that on the end?
Or maybe I don't understand the problem
Correctly

 

[benzzz]

Sorry house cord isn't problem. It is the wires coming out of each pump to contoller. 3 pin connection

Ah,
I got an email
From fish street last night that I quickly scanned over and I thought I saw that they sold extensions, might be worth a look

 

[benzzz]

Thanks I will look up their site.  Never heard of them. 

 

[benzzz]

Thanks again, I found the site mentioned and ordered 2  100cm extension cables for $20  and  $0.75 to ship...  lol gotta love Hong Kong mail...  Now I just hope it isn't a month to get here 

 

[Poseidon]

Nice! Yea that's were I ordered my wp40's from and I know others ordered then as well

 

[TORX]

The cords were already 6' long I thought. Your tank is 6' long I thought, I take it the controllers are going to be located somewhere else then? Or is the WP10 a shorter cable?

 

[benzzz]

True yes but when you factor in the distance 12 inches down the side of each side of the tank and then they just dont meet lol.  For 20 bucks it will be better than hacking them in case I choose to resell someday.

Updating my threads ..... doing my rounds lol

Little update.

Water perimeters are doing great. Everything is looking happy and growing very well.

I stopped by my Buddy's place last night and got a couple more additions for the tank. Palmers Blue Milli, Tri color Valdi, forest fire digi, lime in the sky and a wicked green/yellow acro frag. Gonna arrange placement tonight and let them settle in. Thanks gtareef for some amazing additions.

Was looking into some actinic supplement and was thinking of ReefBrite Tech LED Strip Light 60" actinic

Any input on peoples experience with them would be appreciated.

 

[Jewel]

I've got a 50/50 on my Fuge that is awesome, I imagine a 100 percent atinic would look amazing on you're tank. I had it on my display and I really liked it as well, I just found with my 6 T-5 fixture that I didn't need the extra light.

 

[benzzz]

Thanks for the comment Jewel. 2 60 inch RB actinic strips are over 600 shipped to my place.. I am in the thoughts of just adding 1 60 inch retro fit actinic along each side of my ATI fixture hung now. You would never see the retro looking at the tank. Just looking for that coral looking pop colors while gazing at my tank after main lights shut off.
