David O,

Maybe we need a special Blog about equipment successes and failures.

We have all had them.

Congratulations to you both! This is awesome because now I get to design a whole new bigger system :)

Well I was very happy to see the little guys, as I lost over 100 fish back in November.

Congratulations, Dave!

I think I am a Daddy.  Today I spoted 8 to 12 tiny, like 1/8th to 3/16th inch, baby fish in my big tank, near the surface.  One distinguishing feature was two pin point yellow / green eyes.

Bob look at using an inverter wired to solar panel and use ac pump pluged into inverter with 12volt battery used to store solar electricity for back up,  the bilge pump is not made to run 24/7 it will run hot and burn out
