Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
You know, I guess anything is possible at this point. I don't use gloves in the tank at all. Guess I should start. It's just odd that everything else does good. Only problems are the acros.
So I suppose I should revisit this.
Things have been going well for me with acros recently. Still not great but not horrible either. I have noticed tact whenever I touch or move something it goes downhill fast.
Well true to form I moved a few pieces the other day and came home last night...
Thank you Pete. I know you've been holding that for a while. And for good reason. I can home yesterday to 3 completely 3 more dead acro frags. Skin just flapping off if them. Every time I touch one or move it for some reason a few days later it gone.
You won't regret the OR fixture. I'm getting great results with it. And it will cost roughly $300 to cover the 90. You will be able to grow anything you want. Pretty much anywhere.
Call fish factory. Or if your up for the ride AO. Also before you check with BRS or marine depot or any other aquatics geared stores just do a general search for loc line. Many places carry it, I've often found it quite a bit cheaper.
Loc line is tough to come by in these parts. The only LFS I have ever seen carry is aquatic obsessions. Which is a hike for you. I would give fish factory a shout, they often surprise me with stock you never see. Otherwise online will be the way to go.
Nice job on the stand. I'd be interested in who as well. I'm considering having one built for the 200 when it comes. Trying to get as many leads as possible.
Yeah I forgot you were going in the stand. That makes sense then. Check the deals thread Asonitez had a top of container that has a good volume but is pretty tight I believe. Might work well for you.
I like it, it remind me of my drawings. Can you go bigger with a top off resovior. I have a 10 gal tank on my 90 and it lasts about 5 days if completey filled. Im shooting for at least 20 on my build.
I figure the 13" is to the top of the tank. About 11ish' to the bulkheads. I was looking again at the 55 vs 70 and think I agree with you. Do these pumps take well to restricting flow with ball valves?
The internal pump is a Rio Hyperflow-32. As a quick change to the manifold I have decided...
Think of it this way. You have a 5 gal bucket full of water, fill it with 5 gal of your aquarium water. Take 3 gal and pour it into the aquarium, take 1.5 gal and pour it into the nano aquarium, and take 1/2 gal and run it through the GFO reactor. As you pour the water back where it belongs, it...
From right to left: pump to manifold to DT.
First outlet is to my nano tank
Second was my biopellet reactor
Third is a GFO reactor
Last to the DT
All flow ends up back in my sump. The GFO effluent goes back to the return section, the nano and bio pellets go back to the skimmer section...
Those just drop into a VHS tape adapter. Not sure if you remember VCR's lol. The drop in should be pretty easy to find. I this even best but still sells them. VCR's, well I'm sure you can find one for close to nothing on craigslist or a few bucks at Walmart.
