I use GFO and Carbon. Carbon should not tumble so I pack it solid and just use enough flow to tumble the GFO. In your case I would pack the carbon tightly and adjust the flow however you need for the Zeo stones. If the Carbon is packed tight, you could use any flow you wanted, although I know...

Exactly why I changed. Not to mention that eventually they all leaked. If you have roome for one, I recommend it highly. If I say any more, I'm going to have to start asking them for a commision! LOL Taz

Matt, To change the media, I bought a couple of empty spare cartridges that I fill with my media. When it is time to change, I just turn the ball valve to the off position (ball valve is at the in side of the reactor which you control flow with), unscrew the clear housing, dump water and...

No Rich, as Dave stated the dual would have to be modded or buy 2 singles. Out of curiosity, what media would you be concerned with? Taz

Albie, I WAS a fan of the TLF reactors when they came out and somebody talked some sense into me. If you tweak the hose a little bit on the TLF reactors, they can leak or pop off and I have had problems with the o-rings too. I didn't care because it was in a basement. Do yourself a favor and...

Jon, maybe you should post where you are from and somebody can help you. Taz

Can't say it better myself! I use their stuff myself. Taz

That's assuming you are using RODI water? If you are, have you measured the TDS lately?

I would definitely not rule out phosphates. Our hobbyist test KITS are absolutely garbage. The fact that you can actually see phos in your test makes me believe you have high phosphates. I have tested my water numerous times with a couple of kits and come up with zero. Finally I had enough, I...

Umm excuse me, The day is not over ;D

Some nice pics, come on people give up some more pics. Tomorrow is the deadline(DEC 1). Being the procrastinator I am and the fact that I can not get to my computer right now, I'll have to send pics tomorrow! Taz

I have personally had ALL lights off in my tank for three days at a time in the past to control algae. I only lost 1 frag, and quite honestly I am not sure that the lighting played any role in its demise. I have done this numerous times, even last week for 2 days. I read about many people doing...

Rich you should have gone here! http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#/notes/reef-builders/fish-store-goes-topless-for-black-friday/188397689412 :o

Funny what people do for a black Friday sale. I'd bet you had a good time. I took advantage of the 10% and free shipping from the comfort of my home, but would have liked to go. Tax

I am getting ready to do a massive water change on my system. Will be making water for almost a week. When all is said and done, I may have my first 55g of water for 2 weeks. The water is in a covered 55g drum. My question is should I add the salt now or add the salt the day before I use it...

Where have you guys bought this stuff?

Hey Phil, does this stuff do anything on hazing plexi? Taz

Van, I believe that gives him nine months on a bulb. Good idea, and spreads the cost of bulbs over a longer period instead of one lump sum.

WOW Wendy, I remember when your baby was just a DIY stand, where you left us hanging because you made a wrong cut and had to go get more lumber ;D Your baby is maturing into a thing of beauty! Question, How long have you run your T5's before replacing them? Also, Did you do anything to...
