Temporary Babysitting Setup

UPDATE:

Replaced the Sequence Snapper with a Hydor SELTZ L45. It rocks. Makes Mag-Drives look like wimps.

Here's a quick review I snatched from a PC cooling site:

http://www.systemcooling.com/hydor_l30ii-01.html

Okay, read that, imagine the article's about the L45 and imagine that I wrote it. I know, you all want one now. Quickly, head out, replace that crappy old Mag-Drive with one of these. You'll thank me.

Oh yeah, just a quick comparison between a few popular pumps from this flow range:

People will do anything to cool down their PCs. As evidenced by me, who once put his laptop in the freezer because the cooling fan was broken....and then fell asleep....for three hours.

Seriously people, learn from my mistakes LOL

Which is all besides the point. Let's stay on topic here guys - EVERYONE GO OUT AND BUY A SELTZ. They are ub3r x 5000 vs Mag-Drives and other similar pumps.

Today's updates:

- Filled the tank with RO/DI water.

- Added Ocean Pure Pro salt to 1.025.

- Filled up the Zeovit reactor.

- Filled the Phosban reactor with Silicarb.

- Tossed on a Profilux controller.

- Jacked the 2' HOT5 display unit from the store and rigged it over the top of the tank using some Aquactinics riser brackets.

I'll play with the controller over the course of the week.

Harry Potter kills everyone with an Uzi.

You're welcome.

"- Yelled at my roommate for eating peanut butter out of the jar with a spoon and not cleaning it. I'm allergic to peanut butter. Cleaning it off the spoons is such a hassle. I don't know what the crap, but is it really that much more effort to run a spoon under hot water for 15 seconds while scrubbing? God. Why are people so lazy? I think it's cause they play too much WoW. That game is retarded. I watched my roommate/friend go from being a super mega pick-up artist/ladies man to a sedentary, unmotivated jack-hole because of WoW. Parents, don't buy this game for your kids. If you do, you've pretty much have gauranteed their untimely failure in academia."

"- Sat in front of the fridge for two minutes . I need to go grocery shopping. You can't make anything with ketchup, lettuce and mustard."

Ahem - Pot. Kettle. Black.



BTW Albert, what's with your egregious use of homophobic lingo? Homotesticle? Queer? Hmmm.

Oh sorry, I'm off track: tank sounds good. Want pictures.
