  1. Long time! I've sold this tank quite some time ago. I am currently in the process of planning of much larger system, 200 or so gallons within a custom home.
  2. New Location - Harkin's District is my new home.. Updates regarding the tank after i get settled in, reboot !
  3. Here's a few new inhabitants added this past month from Dr. Mac. Ha! Elliot my Dwarf Moray Eel seems to like the Rhodactis garden. Adding a four(4) head Doser 2 and removing the two(2) head unit to be utilize on a separate system.
  4. If you absolutely need an add-on solution. This 0.35 micron pleated filter is more appropriate.
  5. Spectrapure has a 0.2 micron ZetaZorb sediment cartridge. I have one on my Spectrapure unit and it is capable of holding five times more dirt than say, 1 micron.
  6. Working on a solution to make water changes and acclimation procedure simple.
  7. EcoTech Radion XR15 Pro, Gen 3 Radion at 100%, standard lens SQ-520 Quantum Sensor at 17inches below the fixture PAR Measurement of 362.5 with immersion correction enabled.
  8. Thanks! Utilized two pieces of Indonesian rock from Dr. Mac.
  9. Day 3! I'm not too impressed with the Radion.. "Disco Affect".. Well, let's see how much PAR this fixture puts out, which will be my next update!
  10. +1 for Grainger, but you may have to wait a day or two for availability at a local branch.
  11. Looks like i'm finally setting up a Eheim Aquastyle that i won in a giveaway, 2011. I'll dust it off and get this thing going! Eheim Aquastyle 9G Aquarium EcoTech Marine Radion XR15 Pro, gen 3 Tunze NanoStream 6040 Fluval E50 Watt Heater ATO, TBD Indonesian Live Rock, 8 Pounds Two Little Fishies OutSanding Live Fine Grain Sand
  12. With an introductory price of $764.91 for standalone Alkalinity monitoring and control, $719.91 if you have a ProfiLux.
  13. Looks like i'll have to make space for GHL's KH Director in the coming months. A future update will support dosing for the Triton Method. Other elements can be automatically dosed based on the Alkalinity measurement. Image by GHL
  14. EasyBooster has been mounted and supply line. I'm just waiting for the Easy Connect 25 to arrive.
  15. I'm quite satisfied with the function aspect of my system but i am constantly trying to make it look more appealing. Building my own sump allowed me to fit everything that i wanted in such a confined space.
  16. Stacked - Early on when planning my system. I knew that i wanted to add at least a second doser at some point, left enough space to accommodate one.
  17. I trust this'll be a promising system. Good to see a fellow GHL Mitras owner.
  18. Good info - Looks like the recommended dosage for Easybooster is 1ml per 35gallons, while Algae Barn is 5ml per 20gallons.
  19. My ELOS PO4 supplements have arrived from France! They actually sent me two 500ml bottles, one for free, $25 worth.
  20. Yeah Coming from the days of manually dosing DT's Phytoplankton, limited storage life, needed to be refrigerated, shaken- not stirred Lol. I've been waiting for a prolonged solution for quite some time. Easybooster appears to be highly concentrated compared to live cultures that are packaged with seawater. My initial dosage will probably be 0.5ml per day, 0.1ml individual doses into the suction of my return pump via rigid 1/4" tubing.
  21. I've been wanting to retire my manual dosages of Algae Barn Phytoplankton in favor of automatically dosing Easy Reefs EasyBooster Phyto Gel. Georg from Easy Reefs has informed me that the peristaltic pump connector will be available in the US by late September. I think i'll go ahead an order a second GHL doser, Two(2) head version, which is upgradeable to a three(3) or four(4) head doser on a later date. Adding a second or more dosers to a ProfiLux is fairly simple, assign a PAB device(Doser 2) to the CAN-Bus System and make your configurations.
  22. The eel has been doing quite well ever since i added it to my system. I've been feeding it a single nickel sized portion of octopus three times a week and a few chunks of LRS Chunky Blend. $22 at Whole Foods seafood counter. I'm starting to believe that it is not necessary for a lid. Most eels are dwellers(especially these golden dwarf moray eels) and they spend most of their time in caves, crevasses and porous structures. I'm not worried about it jumping since there's enough hiding places for it. Brian from Reefwise is working on getting me a second one, which i hope is spotted/leopard patterned.
  23. Ha! Welcome back - Jason and his team !
