DIY gone wrong

Now....what would be cool...... build one completely automated. Completely! I'm not sure if it can be done.(manmade)

 

Yea someone I know had one that was almost, for water changes there was a pump that you hit a button to turn on and it pumped water into the drain and you pushed a button to turn it off than RO/DI saltwater would top-off. I personally wont automate my system more than need be as in timers for my lights and maby maby an auto feeder, but then you cant use frozen food! I enjoy my backbreaking bucket bregade! I enjoy all the work that goes into a tank, thats why I dont hire a service to do it for me!

 

i wonder if his house burnt down? j/k

I have to hand it to him, he did alot more planning than I did!!!!!

 

I agree with Geek. Over planned, looks like hes trying to re-invent the wheel. To each is own.

 

that is something lol alot of dedication and $$$$

 

he has good intentions from self taught experiences. hopefully it works for him, but i wouldnt have designed it that way.

 

There has got to be an easier way he must be German....

 

-.- he seems amad scientist came from "Back to Castle - Wolfstain" :-D

 

It looks like an electric chair chamber but for fish! I would be afraid to stick my hand into the cabinet!

 

Well this is a old thread that was dusted off LOL But when I was Kid the guy in the news paper cartoon was Rube Goldberg .. Instead of just using a simple alarm clock Lets build a million dollar set of gears , pulley's levers, counter levers weights and counter weights and get the Clock in motion about an Hour before its time to ring or flip the toast Like Pee Wee's Big Adventure movie

Just because someone can does not mean they should.. But its just the way I have watched this hobby grow and what its become. I really think most hobbyist ate just wanna be Electricians ad Plumbers and I can tell most have never stood next to a real one All are just trying to find a better rat trap to stick their names on.. ;D Hell just look at the simple idea of a sump or refugium .
