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.
I highly recomend reading these articles by Dr. Randy Holmes-Farley
Ozone and the Reef Aquarium, Part 1:
Chemistry and Biochemistry
Ozone and the Reef Aquarium, Part 2:
Equipment and Safety
Please take note of the scientific information on the use of air driers and carbon.
hey Steve, when are we gonna get to see a pic of that sump in action?
Thanks for the kind word guys. Showing off on this board sure is a great ego booster. :P
mladencovic is correct. Actually it will be used in a LFS.
The chamber will be filled with bio ball or bio strata. HVLV (high volume, low velocity) air is introduced through the manifold. As the water makes it's way down the column, the up-current of the air will strip the water of gasses...
Couple Hints:
Not a solid rocket fuel booster.
Not a top down box.
Not a llama spit extraction unit.
No peaking at the pic properties....that's cheating.
Don't forget the florescent painted mini caves and plastic plants that won't stay anchored down. Red and blue substrate are also required. A bubble operated pirate's chest would be the icing on the cake.
