By the way, here is a plastic FAQ. I believe BRUTE containers are HDPE IIRC....
Oh no, I've been using them for like a decade, my tank must be in trouble! :crazy: Seriously, though, Brute trashcans are probably the most...
Haha for sure, but good to understand the difference between salinity and specific gravity and why temperature and atmospheric pressure effect...
new pump could have oils, that would interfere with skimmate production, but I thought the old pump had the same problem? You can also run all your...
Do you know the manufactures recommendation for water level, or are there suggestions from other users in threads anywhere? I'm not that familiar...
How far down though? Sometimes it just takes a while to build, it can even take a few days in some cases, especially if your talking about an...
I would say BP may be cheaper, but they will not work well if nitrate is low either. And they can be ore problematic for some people. GFO is...
Is the venture clogged with calcium deposits maybe? Sort of sounds like it is working too hard to pull air.
Tractor supply has some (similar to or the same as the Norwesco listed above) but they aren't cheap. To be honest, it may be cheaper to buy a bunch...

It is really an AI SOl, cut in half. For not much more, you can get a full sized SOL. You didn't actually say if you have a 20L, or a 20H for...
And I just checked and tried to saturate some salt water. "my salinity was 50ppt, at 77 degrees F, which gave me a specific gravity of ?" ;) So,...
I'm not sure what you are describing. Do the bubbles shut off completely? Or does it just not pull any gunk. I'm not familiar with that skimmer,...
I believe that is on the package, and that would explain why a box is so inexpensive :lol: I think what Dingo is getting at, is that you are...
Sorry, I read that as 50.5 cups, I think you are saying 25 cups? That would be about 1.025, but measure, it isn't always perfectly consistient.
Usually salt saturates at an s.g. Of around 1.04 or so, but it depends on a lot of factors. I am not sure what the salinity of that is, off the top...
Whoops, did I actually type that? I meant to just think it..
Happy Birthday Vinny! :party007: :balloon3: :party010: :balloon: Does this mean newbies will listen to you now that you are older and wiser? :laughy:
Same thing. Randy HF have disc used this a fair amount. The names are just marketing terms. also, most seems to come from the same source....
Most likely it is just the carbon competing with the skimmer. Carbon is more efficient at removing DOC than a skimmer, there is just no way around...
