Well my PH is only 8 months old. I clean the PHs every two months. One of my K-6 is making noise and vibrating like crazy.
Is it shot? Time to replace it already?
This is nice to have I guess. However, I have a request/concern.
Can we make sure that we DO NOT post any pictures on these sites of members unless the members are OK doing so?
I know a various incidents where a person was not happy to see his picture on facebook and he did not even have an...
Thanks Taz. I will change carbon this weekend (2 full weeks) and see if the smell disappears.
Till then I am going to think happily that the smell is dying algae. Hey, no harm in thinking +ive :P
I have carbon running. The reactor has GFO and carbon. The carbon is from BRS and the hi-capacity one.
It has been running for 2 weeks. Is it time to change it already?
Update !!
No real change in algae. As Hawk suggested it is indeed diatoms on the glass but there is a lot of green algae in the tank as well.

Let's see how it goes from here. I know I am getting a LOT of algae on the glass each day.
Nothing encouraging to update. The only thing I can say is that my water is cleaner/clearer. The algae is still going strong. I think stronger >:(
It is getting frustrating now ...

I think my tank is pretty bright. Well at least bright enough that I am fighting algae growth after the bulb change :(
You are welcome to come and take a look.
You will be fine. I have a 12 bulb T5 fixture on my 150 gallon. It is 30 inch deep.
I have SPS upto half way in my tank and they all are very happy.
The ATI bulbs are great. I have a combo of ATI, Griesmann and Ice Cap.
