Like a wetneck, I am not sure about the performance gain when using this, but it’s as original as it gets. This info was found from our Spanish friend Nestor (Buffer) over at TuArrecife If you speak Spanish, check it out!
We give you the squeegee-clean-skimmer-mod:
For those of you using bac driven systems such as Ultra or Zeo, do you know what your Potassium levels are at?Potassium has recently become a hot topic as K depletion is resulting in drab colors and dried out tissue in SPS in these systems.
After some not so good reviews on the Zeovit kit, Fauna […]
Aqua design amano is at the forefront of modern aquariums. There are many companies that are trying to break into this area, but no one has touched the simplicity and “wabi” nature of ADA. They offer a flawless complete line for FW tanks and are becoming more SW friendly with time, or so it […]
We stopped by our LFS here in the city (Oldtown Aquarium) and found two specimens we couldn’t leave without purchasing. Here are our new Chelmon rostratus and Periclimenes brevicarpalis. The coloration on the Copperband is very vivid and the width of the actual bands is just right. As soon as we saw it we knew there […]
Here are some photos from today. Our point and shoot also has a difficult time with the intensity of the light, we’ll try and get better pics up asap. The corals are all a bit dull from the front from the change in lighting angle, but they will color up with time. We added the second metal […]
Zeovit has shipped out it’s latest additive, Pohl’s Xtra. Users are reporting increased growth and more vivid coloration. All major zeo dealers should be carrying the item soon. At $30 for 250ml’s it may be worth considering. [Aquarium Specialty has it in stock] If you’re considering going full blown zeo, now may be the time. ZeovitUSA is […]
We cleaned the glass today and blew out the LR with a PH in turn this stirred up some detritus. The tank is too cloudy right now for any good shots so this will have to do for now. This is the view from our front hall, looking into the mirror and seeing the reflection of […]
Here are some pics of the tank on the base being illuminated by a blue spot light. More photos on there way as it fills up. We apologize for the blurry photos, we were a bit excited.
After waiting just shy of 9 weeks the base was completed, we finally picked it up today. Big thanks to our friend [Logan] for giving us a lift and hauling it back to our place in his fine SUV. Here’s an image of just the stand, the tank is currently on top and filling up with water. […]
To us, the layout and look of a sump is extremely important. Simple, effective, and easy to use are the top three requirements. Usually with this and some common sense, an attractive little filtration set up can be put together.
Baffles are usually used to keep water levels in certain areas and eliminate micro-bubbles…the increased silicone […]
Even though the 90g is still not up (supposedly the stand will be finished today) we are considering future projects and designs for new systems. We’ve found a good source for metal hairpin legs, so a side table for our plywood eames chair is definitely next on the list, we are still deciding if a nano […]
ATB has released images of it’s new external model. Shown below is the XL with airstar 2000 pump. Like it’s internal brothers it can be completely dissembled for easy cleaning. It utilizes a Laguna 2400 motorblock with an enlarged volute allowing it to pull 3,000lph. Here in the states it will likely pull 3500lph+.
