Re: Just a recap
I could taste the stink in the air, and not long into the dive I got a headache. Later the next day I smelled the air in both tanks and I could deffinately smell something, and Woah was it strong after a few min of blowing it into a clenex, tho no residue.

Re: At the Geodome
yep, type of rockfish, copper or something like that.
I can say that its a little spooky to be knocked upside the head by an unseen thing, than see an eel slithering through the water like some giant snake.. cant say I would want to be bit.

Re: At the Geodome
So does that mean to feed the eel is not a good idea? Strong enough to bite your finger off?
And does anyone know what the name of the fish is? what breed?
Did see some HUGE Dungeness.. both dead and alive.. the big ones were hiding in about 20' under the kelp.

Re: Just a recap
My tanks were new Aug 2005. Corrode ? very very unlikely for my tanks, or anyone elses that takes care of theirs. Maybe an old old tank might that has no prx in it. The water content is in the .00_ PPM meaning so low there effectively no water in the air, again meaning highly unlikely corrosion will...

The air was probably a year or a bit more old, which shouldnt matter given air quality standards, unless the air is contaminated or the tank is corroding. I've never had my air filled anywhere else than UWS, weither or not it was everett or seattle I dont remember. Probably seattle, but I dont recall.

Re: MMM 7/18
They are my tanks and made in 2005. UWS filled the tank, after the last inpection but quite a while ago. Atleast a year, meaning they've just been sitting in my garage for a long time. I've never had bad air from them. My reg has been serviced every so it's gotta be in the tank, I could just taste t...

Re: MMM 7/18

A 73 minute dive with a max depth of 95fsw on Al80s? Yeah, pretty impressive, huh? \:D/ I've always prided myself with breathing like a fish and it's awesome that my buddy can keep pace as well. It's really not all that shocking. When I was diving regulary with a guy from UWS several times a week o...
