we have fun here, sssshhhhhhhh, welcome
heres some pics the Ca reactor has 3/8 the CaHO2 reactor has the 1/4 and when i get bored the output will be 3/8 also input has to stay 1/4 due to...
to help out on the line not clogging i bumped upto 3/8 line instead of the 1/4, its an easy do. also alows more flow
if i take either one off line the levels will drop overnight, so both are very important
it goes both ways if the reactor isnt adjusted to add enough you end up dosing to add if the reactor is to much just take off line and let the tank...
heres a pic of what i have now
if you instal the pH probe in the first chamber consider the second obsolete. the 2nd would just be there to raise the pH by using the left over CO2.
yea i agree, cant remember the last time a water change was done. if you put the 2nd effluent at 6.7 pH and adjust your effluent from there using the...
just keep the pH between 6.6-6.8 preferrably 6.7 even if the effluent changes have to play with the CO2 bubble rate to match it to the effluent then...
the second chamber adds dKH and Ca by using the left over CO2
yup for over 15 years
jason: check out that website, and if you have a 2nd pH monitor just let the effluent drain into a small cup then measure. if not pull the probe from...
theres a couple ways to measure consumption rate 1) turn everything off 2) measure whats going in if i turn everything off, the tank will be zero...
we can stay here, you chimed in, maybe others will, thats why the thread is " sps freaks " on your Ca reactor your goal is 6.6-6.8 pH on the...
ive used some of those, to funny
could always make your own
live and learn i guess, im already planning my next tank. its too bad the 600 gallon that guy was making didnt come to a full blown tank.
yea you did mention that, man that sucks. is he still your friend?
lol, no the pic was taken from the side of tank towards the front glass to get the mirror effect
what started chewing the corals?
