lol we do not answer any calls we don't recognize, they can leave a message. No message that phone number gets blocked. I get almost no bad calls on my cell, hubby gets a lot. I do get a few from a AZ number since my cell is a AZ number those I never answer and just block.

Keep your bags packed THEY ARE COMING FOR YOU!

Has anyone had success with solar-powered pumps? If so what brand?
I had a pump with a built-in solar panel and it did not work well but if you want to invest in a 100w panel and a simple inverter with a deep cycle battery then that could potentially provide enough power to run all your pumps, filters, and even lighting at night. It will require the initial investment but could pay for itself pretty quickly. I don't power my pump by solar but I have a backup power setup that uses two large conventional generators but it also has several solar panels with inverters and of course a bank of deep cycle batteries to store surplus power from the generators and stores the solar power during daylight hours.
