Hey man whattup? That sounds pretty sweet. Post some pix when you can.

What mods did you make to the ac500 to turn it into a fuge? Did you shave the impeller or use a smaller one or just stick with the standard one you got?

How did a scallop take out your RBTA??

Definitely want pix of your mangrove sump.

well...the scallop decided he wasnty happy with the spot that he was in so he went to move...this scallop is about 2 inches so he is pretty big and strong...he was wedged under the rock that the RBTA was on top of...the scallop can only move one way fast which pushed the rock he was under over...that in turn put the RBTA on the sand top down with the rock on top of him all night...i found it in the morning when i got off work

ill post some pics when i figure out how to make them smaller files...any suggestions?

use photoshop to edit the resolution and/or dimensions, or simply upload the files to your own server and post them that way (the size restriction only applies when uploading pix to the RDO servers, which NOBODY SHOULD DO ANYHOW, since they are not able to be reposted that way).

thus endeth my rant for the day.

Not everybody has their own servers or know how to do all that fancy linking stuff (willfully remaining ignorant out of stubborn pride), Hwarang! Stupid head! Nyah!
