Ouch! My Car!

Ouch! My Car!

Zooqi, he really whacked my ride---$1900.00+ worth and that was with a USED door. It goes in the shop today and hopefully I'll have it back early next week. :mad2:

 

[zooqi]

oooopss,, he had to change the light and that's it. Some parts from your car still on the street. He really got you bad. Sorry man but didn't you hear that this hobby is risky and expensive.

What about ASM? I saw that posted in a skimmer thread. Who is it?

 

[zooqi]

ASM is a brand name of the skimmer. Like ER G1- G1X-G2-G4-G4X-G5-G6 and all start with ER The X model of each is a little higher and it uses different pump. Good skimmers though. The EuroReef split to two companies and one of them kept making the EuroReef and the other started ASM. ASM is cheaper than Euro but it has the same performance just the material is not the same but it does not matter with skimmer if it collects the same amount of dirt and cheaper.

 

[AvonleaPA]

So is ASM the same as Southbay? I thought Southbay was the spin-off of the Euroreef?

 

[zooqi]

I don't know much about southbay and I have not seen them around here in any systems.

 

[karlas]

hey zooqi was just wondering where is this frag meeting taking place?

 

[zooqi]

Karla, I have not set the place yet because is depend how many people coming. If I got more than 50 then I can't do it in my house because of the space limit and I will rent a space to have that but if is less then is going to be in my house and will have the whole backyard for food and tables. I have good size backyard but I will wait untill the beginint of April to see.

 

[zooqi]

I forgot to mention that I live in Loyalsock by Faxon if you are femiliar with the area. Less than two miles from Ron.

Thanks for that great list.
How about SDR ?

 

[BonsaiNut]

Minor correction:

HQI stands for "Mercury Quartz Iodide" not "High Quartz Iodide". The "H" stands for "Hg" the elemental symbol for Mercury.

WOW. that really answers alot of questions for someone just starting out . I printed it out and keep it by my computer ... Thanks, Donnie:rollface:

 

[tentacle]

Hi all. Those who thanked me, your welcome. I'm glad my list has helped out.

Minor correction:
HQI stands for "Mercury Quartz Iodide" not "High Quartz Iodide". The "H" stands for "Hg" the elemental symbol for Mercury.

Actually BonsaiNut, it does not stand for Mercury Quartz Iodide. The H stands for "high", not Mercury.

The rumor that it stood for Mercury was misinformation that went around on the boards for some time.

 

[Palmetto]

FYI, I agree.

IMO & IME, FWIW.

LOL!
