The bacteria coming off the biopellets in the first chamber will end up clogging the second reactor. You are better off running biopellets in thier...
Great job! ;)
Hey... that looks familiar! Very nice job, and great job documenting the build (something I didn't think about until after). K+ to ya!
The fish was about 2 inches. I was getting concerned about him though, as he was not coming out from the rocks to eat. He just sat in his "cave". A...

Tried to take pics of the light bulbs, but the color did not come out. The old 10k bulbs literally look yellow next to the ATI 12k Aquablue specials....
I had a TLF150 reactor laying around, and some biopellets needing some tumbling. So, I took out the sponges and put in some fine mesh, and let it...
Unfortunately, I didnt take pics during the build, and I dont really want to tear the reactor apart now that the pellets are running. But I will grab...
So, what did the honey say when you had the talk? ;) Mine is only $30-40, and she still give me a fit! LOL!
