I'm a Daddy twice and missed the births!

I went away two weeks and when I got back this Monday I noticed that
my rose anenome had split. Today I was moving one of my live rocks,
and I find another rose anenome. Two splits in two weeks!

Well then...... how much did they weigh, what are their names, and how do we
get our cigars?

Congratulations!

I was reading your page, and noticed you mentioned you run
Cat 5 cabling from the tank to your computer. Is there a
limit to the lengthy of cabling? It would be very
convenient for me to do the same with my new setup. The
wiring would have to run about 50 feet.

Go for it. 50feet will be fine.

The cables run from the aquarium, up to a second floor homerun room
where it is spliced to another cat 5 cable running to the office.
Total length of cable involved is approximately 150 ft. This does
cause a problem with the data being corrupted in some way. I called
up Neptune Systems, and they have some type of serial cable adapter
which corrects this situation, which I purchased and fixed the
problem. The aquacontroller has been up and running with the cat 5
cables for approximately 2 years now.

I do not see any problem running 150ft of Cat5 cable or have any data
corruption. If you talking about slicing / spliting the cable then maybe. I
do not split / splice cable. All my Cat5 cable run from a device = switch
= router. I am not sure what "serial cable adapter" in regarding to Cat5.
Are you talking about serial cable that attach to the device's serial port?
Cat5 cable convert to serial? Very interesting. Common cause of data
corruption normally the cable way too long like say 350 but more likely 500
ft long and or bad campling.

serial cable adapter

Maybe it was a crossover cable? Most devices on ethernet need a
hub/switch/router between them. Device X Computer or Device=Hub=Computer, X
standing for crossover cable.
