    Thumbs up Lookin SWEEEEET!

    Dude I forgot to tell you that on the Reac the feed line from the bubble counter to the other input right before the recirc pump there should be a check valve.....I have some but they are cheap ones, might wanna try and find a nice one so you dont have to worry bout anything. Man thats gonna be one decked out corner tank when you get it done.

    Looks great Joe, I know you are excited.

    What are your plans for keeping the light from the radium escaping? Are you going to be using an enclosed canopy?

    just ordered my co2 system so i can now see what kind of action i'll be seeing from my calcium reactor. ESV has served me well for the past 3 years, i hope to make things more stabe with automation for this system.

    been thinking about making a little box to stick behind the tank to contain fresh water for auto topoff. what could i use to trigger a little powerhead inside to fill when needed? I dont really wanna use a aquacontroller, i guess i'll just have to drip and use a float valve---but then i would need gravity. what a delimma......
