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? Scott Z. |

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...... |
