RE: Newb question with pictures leaky wall and soft floor

Okay, today I put some black jack on the furnace vent/exhuast whatever it's called up there. The snow was melting already and I could see some puddling, so I dried it out and slopped that stuff on. I'm hoping it'll get into the cracks better when the furnace is on and when thes sun beats down on it ...

RE: What to use for added floor support?

I hear you on the buckets part. My salt water tank is super easy to due water changes. I drilled a hole in my filtration sump below the tank. It has a bulkhead and a valve to drain water out the door by a garden hose when needed. Then to fill my tank, I just have a rubber maid tub a few feet above m...

When I had freshwater I thought about getting a BGK. But went with freshwater sting rays instead. Bah, I misspelled Ocellaris when I signed up in a hurry, but I've been doing reef tanks for years now and filtration for that on a salt water tank would have added an extra 40+ gallons to the system. If...

RE: What to use for added floor support?

I hate to make this post even more technical that it's getting, but is this tank going to be fresh or salt water?

Thanks guys. We are supposed to get snow tomorrow, after two days of being in the 60's earlier this week. But I'm going to do what I can this weekend to find out where it's leaking at. I'm going to remove the ceiling and cabinets and have some help to on the roof with some jugs of water and see if I...

RE: Newb question with pictures leaky wall and soft floor

The shingles are only a few years old. They are in pretty good shape, I've been on the roof a couple of times to see if I could figure out where it was leaking from. It rained today, first time since the fall. I started to feel the spot in the first picture and it's wet. The rest of the spots are dr...

Newb question with pictures leaky wall and soft floor

Okay, I've been talking to a friend of mine who builds houses and have gotten great information from him, but I've been lurking around here for quite some time and figured I'd post for once. I have a 1989 Marshfield 3 bedroom, 2 bath. There are water spots from where the furnace is located between t...
