    The last word in Knee patches

    yeah what I'm doing wrong is trying to explain to you what I already said - what you suggested IS NOT ALLOWED. We're in an aquarium tank - closed loop system. They want as little contamination as possible from humans - its a wonder that they allow us to use our own wetsuits, but I'm not...

    The last word in Knee patches

    Ah, now we're getting somewhere. These won't work on a wetsuit unfort as you need the patch to stretch, or it just over stresses the surrounding area and you get a rip around the patch. But, its good thinking and a def keeper for the future dry suit. Thanks.

    The last word in Knee patches

    Overalls or knee caps aren't gonna cut it with the Aquarium - its gotta be some kind of wetsuit armour to pass the "I'm not a diver, but as a supervisor I can't allow that" test. It has to look like it belongs on your wetsuit.....

    BREAKING NEWS: New Lionfish Legislature For Florida!

    Based on what was posted above about the house and senate and the date of such, I'm gonna guess that this is just news that got printed late....and is therefore not the current state of affairs...unfortunately.

    Aquarium Diving

    Not trying to be snooty, because I think its possibly a missed business opportunity, but here you'd get laughed off the boat dock if you ushered people to a RIB for money, mid-atlantic speaking....

    Indeed I have, but that's a bit dorky, and I try hard to down play that trait in myself whenever possible....

    Aquarium Diving

    Dove the Baltimore Aquarium as a patron, then when I got my DM, got certed to be a safety diver at the Baltimore Aquarium. Worked two groups just yesterday. Its a fun gig. The dive is straight forward, lots to see. Just PLEASE don't use it as your refresher dive for the upcoming season -...

    The last word in Knee patches

    My beloved 5mil is being torn up with teaching and Aquarium duty - both are heavy on the kneeling (don't start on the kneeling lecture). I need something bullet proof and flexible to glue to my knees - ultra stretchy kevlar would be a god-send, but alas no gas. Anyone got any suggestions with...

    Do you pickle your filter media?

    Probably true. I can tell you that my tolerance was also much better in the past....just sayin'....!

    Do you pickle your filter media?

    Overnight? Pffft. Try 1 hour. Not kidding. And I tore it apart, put it in the ultrasonic, re-greased it with 111 and put it back together. Twice. Not much to speak of parts wise. Yeah I suppose retrospectively I could have messed it up - maybe an errant link fiber from who knows where. But...

    Do you pickle your filter media?

    Frank - I'd rebuild it if it was old and leaking, but outta the box new and it leaks? BS. I mean serious "I'm frickin' angry" BS. Pissing good money after bad just gets my goat. Ya know what I mean? That said, what do you replace and where do you get it for the SE BPR to make them bullet...

    Do you pickle your filter media?

    Hohum I need a better BPR than the AE. Its leaking well below its set point. Found a small fitting leak as well, but its puny compared to what the BPR is sending down the fill hoses....Chaulk me up to another unsatisfied AE customer. Good news is the check valve is doing its job. So how much...
