Having met Jeff and bought a custom sump from him, I will definitely have him make all my stuff now. His prices and his quality are second to none! Even the long ass drive to his house was worth it
I have Well Water so the pressure sucks...lol
Anyways it is doing its thing.... My PPM Waste Water is 311. My RO/DI Water is 000 PPM. It is a SLOOOOOOOOOW drip stream though!!! It is gonna take all weekend to fill my tank/sump
I can't get the Booster Pump to stop being intermitent. I am trying to adjust it with the provided allen key but its just jumping all over the place and shuts off and starts on intermitently.
Dunno.... How can I stabalize it? I have it hooked up per your direction Brian.
Ok I am confused as can be...... I got the Typhoon Extreme III and the Booster Pump System.
I have the Typhoon mounted to the wall right by my sink. Now I see that the line coming in from the sink goes into the 1st chamber. After that I have no clue how it routes??? At what point and how do you tie in the booster pump? What do I do with the sediment filter? Is that what replaces the membrane uptop or is it completely seperate??
Also the pressure gauge.... does that get plumbed right after the booster pump? It has a T-Fitting so where does it go after in goes thru the guage?
I apologize for not being able to figure this out on my own, it just looks like Greek to me......
I'm attaching pics so if anyone can mark these up in paint or photoshop just showing how this thing gets plumbed I would so very much appreciate it!!!!
Pickin up some heaters.... Better to go with (2) 250Watt heaters or (1)500watt Heater? I know its always better to double up incase one fails but I was just seeing what the majority does. I plan to put them in my sump btw....
Ok so everything is just about ready to go for me to add water this weekend....
I have about 100lbs. of Dry ECO Rock I got from Bulk Reef Supply for my DT. I am going to have only 1" of Caribsea Special Reef Grade Substrate in there.
Now in my sump/fuge I am planning on putting in a DSB about 6-7" of Live Sand as well as a couple fistfull sizes of LR and Macro Algae to get things going.
I will also throw in a couple raw shrimp and let them decompose in the DT.
I do plan on running my protein skimmer from day 1 just so its broken in and pulling out whatever gunk it finds. It really shouldn't effect the bacteria growth I wouldn't think.....
I plan on running the lights maybe a week or two into the cycle.
Let me know what you guys think.... Change something, don't change something
Hey John, just checking to see if you have any JBJ Auto Top Off systems in stock?
Also I need a return pump for my 90G... preferibly something submersible. Got anything like the MAG 9 or Enhiem 1260?
Yeah the pic sucks for some reason.... The doors are BIG! So I wont have any problems with getting stuff in or out.
This is for a 90 Gallon but also room for another frag tank next to it. I dont really like buying stuff used. Its cool for some people but I prefer new so I know EXACTLY what I am getting and the condition it is in ya know.....
Reefer37 just let me know man
darn I hope no replys means it doesn't suck
Anyways I swung by The Marine Scene and picked up some good stuff...
MRC MR-2 Protein Skimmer
Blueline 40 HD-X Pump
NextReef Media Reactor
Won Bros. Pump
Vortech MP40w
I also placed an order today for an ATI Powermodule which will be here Friday.
I am hoping to be up and running next Saturday. Waiting on a few more things to be coming in next week so long as there not back ordered.
Started do a little stain....
Almost there....
Just need to do the doors but overall I am done...
Going to start getting my equipment this week.. lights, skimmer, controller, etc...
Stay tuned
