FWIW ~~~ I just looked for water flow meters on Amazon (search there for "water flow meter gpm"). Most of those for sale are some sort of electronic, and unfortunately have metal parts. One like this might be suitable for my needs...
Thanks for the suggestion, which could happen. Right now, I have an Apex PMUP running continuously with a restricting RODI tubing ball valve. I'm measuring the output of the filter to verify GPH flow, BUT I'm not that happy with the variability of my measurements.
I've never seen any nice...
Thank you for the replies. Despite my second guesses, I might have to go with it. I can't find any continuous dosing pumps with a greater GPH, in the event my testing tells me that I have to increase the rate.
I picked up a Versa pump on BF for use as a dosing pump for a DIY nitrate filter. Can Mobius be programmed to pump 3 gallons an hour continuously? I'm asking because the Mobius app only gets two stars out of five in the Google App download site. I expected more from the app, especially from...
Talking about generators - is anyone looking for a cheap one? I have a tri-fuel generator sitting unboxed in my garage for longer than I can remember. If I needed to set it up tomorrow, I probably couldn't rise to the occasion. What is a tri-fuel you ask? It runs on gasoline, OR natural gas...
Regret to advise I won't be there. Yesterday afternoon I got into an accident on my way to Absolutely Fish. I won't be healed enough to drive for maybe two weeks and if I could drive, I now don't have a car.
I was really looking forward to this meeting too! Somebody please take some...
This dip product has been around for years. It does seem to have doubled in price over the past year or two. Aquatic Obsessions once kept it on the counter, not sure if Will still does. One on-line vendor I once got fish from (Tank Stop ?) would include a packet with fish that you bought.
My Acclimation Faux Pas
Whenever I can, I like to use the Blue Life USA "Safety Stop - Rapid Fish Quarantine Bath" product when acclimating a new fish to one of my systems.
(Safety Stop - Rapid Fish Quarantine Bath) There's a picture of a packet below.
One part consists of ingredients for...
I understand that is one use for the power head venturi inlet, but how do you secure it in place? I think it could be a single failure point scenario - I can envision some tail-slapping wrasse, or maybe even a large snail, simply pushing the tubing out of the power head input hole.
I've been in this hobby so long that I'm the person who told CPR about TOM Aqualifters.
Most current CPRs have the connection for the Aqualifter, so you're better off using it, unless you think you can get the bubbles collecting in it some other way, because those bubbles will eventually break...
Hi Vlad!
Sorry, you can't make it.
Off-topic question ~ Are you currently culturing both Pheaodactylum tricornutum and Chlorella vulgaris? I had a long talk with my Chat GPT 4o bot, and I'm switching to these two. My new cultures are arriving from Reef Legends next week, but it would be nice...
