A Mame Skimmer Clone for fun

by Electrobes on 07-12-2013 at 03:12 PM
My tank has been doing pretty well. As it grows up, it needs me less and less... which makes me a bit bored in my free-time as I am usually occupied by something with the tank. I was perusing some older articles, threads, etc when I came across a "micro-skimmer". I eventually landed on this article by Reef Builders:

Stand ReMod/Control Board plus other added Upgrades

by Electrobes on 07-08-2013 at 01:44 PM
So I finally decided to get off my butt and get some things done. I had, for the longest time, wanted to do several things that I just never got to:


1) Make my tank's info (Temp at the time) view-able WiFi and Cellular networks.


2) I wanted to have all my equipment (Not just the lights and temp stuff) controllable.


3) I was sick of my "Drawer" control board as the toll of pulling the drawer and dragging wires whenever I did it

More Rock Structures with some yapping by yours truly

by Electrobes on 06-19-2013 at 09:30 AM
So as some of you know I make "Rock Structures", or however you name them (I've been corrected any number of times!). This is something I like to do, and it keeps me deeper in the hobby without burning me out. I wish I could say I am some type of savant in designing Rock Structures, but this would not be true. It takes me quite a bit of time to create these things to the point I think they look pretty decent. What do I mean by this? Well, believe it or not, I try to make it look as natural
